My name was supposed to be the Eels album shootenanny!, but I spelt it wrong, and now I'm stuck with it. Sigh.
I use the name "dirt" on messageboards etc a fair bit, AIC reference as well as the fact that it's cool to say "hi, my name is dirt". But needless to say, that username was long gone by the time I got here.

kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.
Mine comes from Nothingman and Better man! I combined them to say nothing better (than) pj....man!
I also have noticed another poster has a similar name! I thought of mine on my own and so did the other person cause I think they are older than me!

he grew a beard.
I joined the fan club when Vitalogy came out. If you recall at the time there were a bunch of Vs. CD's that came out as self-titled. I have one, so I decided to put them in reverse. VITALOGY, PEARL JAM, TEN.
I use this as my screen name and for almost everything else (E-Mail, etc..)

When I was fifteen in 95' I was getting online for the first time. I needed a user name to log onto my dial up connection. The Latin dictionary was sitting on the desk so I grabbed it and randomly opened it up. The first word I saw was Fractus. Been using it for over 10 years now. I cant remember what it means in Latin but its nothing interesting.
"In meinem Baum" means "in my tree" in German. The latter was already taken and I'm a major Germanophile, so I just translated it and voila! It probably just looks like a big jumble of letters, but then again, so do most German words at first glance.

I took on the name because the disease never gives ME a break. It's always laying heavily on my mind. Rules our entire life. The name just seemed to fall into place.
SmallTown, because it felt like the spirit of my fallen friend passed through me during this song at a live show. No joke.

Brink.. short version of Brink of Forever, my username on RM. The phrase is from a between song speech Ed gave at Uniondale in 2003... about the human race being on the brink of forever... thought it was a cool phrase and decided to use it.
