    One of the first nicknames I was given at my firehouse was pearl jam joe (patch under lip & huge pj fan)but that was too obvious. Later on I was also given the nickname guacamole joe because of my great tasting(and sometimes mind altering) avocado dip. Since the last cd cover had an avocado I used the later nickname. Oh, if anyone needs the recipe its no secret, just send me a pm and I'll forward the ingredients.
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.

    Oh shit. Is that you? I met you at MSG in 2003. You had a broken leg or some shit because I remember that you were on crutches.

    I don't recall ever seeing this here.

    I picked Jammer because a lot of the clever Pearl Jam related names had been taken by the time I joined. We are all "jammers" so I just figured what better name could I pick? Why did you pick yours?


    DITTO!

    my old thread

    This is great. Three years ago explains why I don't remember it ;-)

    Some funny stories here so far. It's nice that we all get to know a little about each other. Thanks to all that have posted so far.

    Cool thread.

    I got my name from a Ralph Nader rally at MSG. Ed came out and said "NOw this is a Gardenparty" or something like that. Also, my location is the sku# for live at the garden.

    I came up with my name by combining 2 of my favorite songs: Rearviewmirrow and Light Years. But its also kind of has a double meaning as well, free to interpretation!
