Roll Me Over
Sweater tickled my interest with his talk about getting his screenname, but didn't share the story.

I got my screenname shortly after getting married. I was still in college but had started commuting. There I was hanging out with the guys in my old dorm room and in walks my wife of about three months. I was surprised cause she'd never come down unannounced and it was in the middle of the day.

She handed me a pregnancy test stick. Like an idiot I tried to figure out whether it was positive or negative, then realized she wouldn't be here if it was negative.

So my buddy said you are gonna be a dad? Yep.

You are gonna be the Bigpoppa. Well now I have two Rugrats hence Bigpoppa x 2.

I thought it was funny when I asked Rubo and Bansil what they thought of me from my screenname. Rubo thought I was a black guy. Bansil thought I was an old geezer.

Nope I'm a 28 yr old normal white guy.

Lets hear others, this ought to be good.

Hell, I didn't know that thread ever existed. And I posted on it.

Now I guess I'm old, hairy, and senile... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Getting old is fun, Mike! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

I get up every morning and make new friends all over again. They remember me, but they're news to me! I get to hide my own easter eggs, too! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The hair... well, you're on your own on that one, bud!

I missed it too... anyway, I race motorcycles... well, I did for 4 years until the cost caught up to me. I raced a Suzuki SV650. Great little bike, but I sold it this summer <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Sucked letting it go, but the work on my truck was a worthy replacement! Here's some pics of my bike:

Well Im from New Jersey so I just copied from my state <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. I used to go by the name JerseyAmigo but the Amigo is long gone. Lost my job last year and I had no choice but to give it up. Now that I have the Trooper I used the name JerseyDevil cause of a myth found in New Jersey plus I am a big Devils fan <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/coolg.gif" alt="" />.

When I registered I must not have been in a very creative or clever mood as I just used my last name. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

pretty sure I'd be the only one with it so it would be unique enough...
