My first Honda CiViC was a Black 2000 Coupe.
Ironically, BDC (abbreviation) means bottom dead center...

People starting calling me "The Good Doctor" a while back; because a) they thought I could figured I could fix just about anything b) DrDre ( My real name is Andre') c) I'm older than a lot of the people I hang around and it beats old man.
drdre is normally taken, so I started using dremd you can see my mobileme galleries@ dremd.com

my son's nickname is bug, and I have a toyota p/u at home waiting for me to mod. that combined with being put on the spot for a username, and "toyobug" was the result. I've actually started using it as my "default" username now. so if you see it other places, it's me.

Um... My name is Christopher.
Chris is over used, and no matter what public situation you're in, saying "Chris" draws attention from 50 guys and 8 women.
Christ, on the other hand, actually removes attention... when you say "Christ", most people think you're saying the shorter form of "Jesus Christ", as though you're cursing something... and will intentionally not pay attention. Thank you, got what I wanted.
That, in addition to the fact that it's funny to watch/listen to people mispronounce "Christ" with a short "i" sound, as if to say "Crystal" without the "ull" sound. I assume most people do this simply to avoid saying "Christ", thinking that I might be offended at a mispronunciation of my surname.
Either way, Christ. It's simple. And it's never taken.

ATaylorRacing is a very easy one when you see the avatar. If you Google Angelo Taylor Racing up pops a VERY old site with some old history and neat pics. I really need to get a web master as a sponsor and update everything! If you Google just my name most of the links are news stories about a much fitter and younger Angelo, a bit tanner and faster on his feet. I never knew until I Googled my name that I had won an Olympic gold 8 years ago, had it stripped, got in trouble twice for having sex with under aged girls, and straightened up my act to win another gold at the last Olympics! Further searching has me as a new age musician in Russia!

I just Googled my name. My alter ego is a professional fisherman sponsored by Team Jesus Ministries! That's so not fair!

Mine is a nickname from college that I use pretty much everywhere.
It started with my freshman room mate noticing my pectus excavatum and saying "you've got an extra arm socket!" (mine's not nearly as pronounced as the one pictured)
the i_am_ part comes in when someone's already taken Socket.
