Mine is self-explanatory. My name is Tim and I am from Texas (although I am currently 12 miles from the Oklahoma state line).

Mine is just a play on the word dandelion. Its not my name, of course. The main reason for it is my hair is bleached white and it is really fuzzy. Eventually I may replace my avatar with my own picture. I dont really take many pictures that i am thrilled with, so my avatar is a stuffed thingy i made while bored one day.

H E P A S T "Dr. Everett Righteous, founder and leader of the MMM (the Majority for Musical Morality) became influential in American politics through the use of his own cable/TV network. He spoke about the evils of Rock 'N Roll Music and how its permissive attitudes were responsible for the moral and economic decline of America. He was charismatic, entertaining, and above all, he understood the media. The MMM soon gained enough power to have Rock N Roll banned."

"Robert Orin Charles Kilroy was a world famous Rock N Roll star. As this new law was passed, Kilroy and his band were finishing a national tour. Their last performance at the Paradise Theater would serve as the test case. On the night of the concert, as Kilroy played to a packed house, the MMM marched in and stormed the stage. When it was over, a MMM protester was dead. Kilroy was convicted of the murder and sent to a prison ship with other Rock N Roll misfits."

T H E P R E S E N T "... is a future where Japanese manufactured robots, designed to work cheaply and endlessly, are the caretakers of society. Mr. Robotos are everywhere, serving as manual labor in jobs that were once held by humans."

"Dr. Righteous enforces his own morality by holding nightly rallies where crowds hurl Rock N Roll records and electric guitars into huge bonfires. Jonathan Chance, the rebel leader of an underground movement to bring back Rock N Roll, has made Kilroy the symbol of his cause. Meanwhile, Kilroy has spent a number of years in prison. With no hope of release, he is subjected to the humiliation of mind control via the MMM cable network. In an attempt to contact Kilroy, Jonathan jams the airwaves of the MMM network, replacing a mind control session with outlawed footage of a Kilroy concert. Inspired by Jonathan's message, Kilroy plots his escape. Late one night he makes a daring attempt to free himself by overpowering a Roboto guard. Disguised as a Roboto, Kilroy moves freely throughout the city leaving graffiti coded messages for Jonathan. Jonathan discovers the rock code which leads him to the old Paradise Theater, now the site of Dr. Righteous Museum of Rock Pathology. There he sees the last Kilroy concert mechanically depicted by Kilroy look alike robots as the violent end of Rock N Roll... and there he and Kilroy meet for the first time."

Back when I was 11, I needed to select a username for my first ever internet account, and I had no idea what to choose. So, I flipped through the book nearest me until I saw one I liked. Since then it's just kind of stuck - I've used the name for 9 years now (with various slight alterations), and it's just stuck now.

Each half of my username is my real name, first and then middle, but translated to English and then to Hebrew.

My username is a derisive nickname that some students gave me when I was in 7th grade. Needless to say, I didn't like it, but since I changed schools the next year, I didn't live with it long.

Interestingly enough, some 30 years later, when I was creating an account online for a website for which I did not want to give my actual email address (because I was somewhat ashamed that I was creating an account on that site), I created a web email account with this same derisive nickname from so many years before. Freudian, huh!

Finally, after having had a couple of kids with AS and HFA and having my wife claim that I too most likely had AS, when I began researching it and discovered this website, it seemed perfectly natural to use this nickname as my username. I think that perhaps I am coming to grips with the fact that despite the fact that at one time I hoped to earn respect through my intellectual prowess and having a nickname that suggested that I was not world's most 'cool' guy seemed to negate these attempts, that now I am more willing to accept my relational limitations and in fact accept them as a part of my wonderful uniqueness! I accept my inner 'dork'! !!

My username comes from The A Team, except there is only one of me so it's The A Person, which I exaggerated into captials. I was going to put dots in between but it didn't work.

I'm an Aspie and I'm fascianted by the future prospect of humans living on Mars, as well as on the moon and other planets. It's a common element in my sci fi stories I write, as are characters with Aspie traits.

One of my favourite SpongeBob episodes is "Band Geeks" (Season 2). When I joined my first internet forum in 2005 (back when I was a n00b), I decided as a result to call myself Band8PGeek. and the rest is history.

I took my name from the main character in the movie "Flåklypa Grand Prix". Reodor Felgen is a hermitic inventor who lives on top of a mountain, where he earns money by repairing bikes. He is not all alone, though. He is accompanied by two humanoid animals. One of them is the pessimistic, and depressed hedgehog named Ludvig, the other is the optimistic and cheerfull Magpie named Solan.

One day they discover that a former apprentice of Reodor Felgen has stolen one of his inventions, and used it in his own racecar. The invention is a turbine which makes cars much more powerfull. Reodor decides to build a car to race against his former apprentice.

My name is Max, and I have no idea how or when my friends called Maxx (actually pronouncing the second x).

There is a grueling debate in my mind at the moment, as usual.

For those who are slow, I'll show you the flow,
but I'm also fond of divergence.

My username..."Brittany2907" does not signify anything great.

My first name is Brittany...and my birthday is on the 29th day of the 7th month.
