All my pictures and other stuff is in storage in Colorado but we will be renting a truck and hauling it all back in about two weeks. I will then hopefully find the pictures and slides and scan/post them for all to see.

I am a huge Doors fan. In 1986 -- six years before the internet was invented -- I logged on to a NAU-only local chat system. The name I chose was Kingsnake, after the Doors' "Crawlin' Kingsnake" song on the "L.A. Woman" album. I flirted with a few other aliases, for a few days here and there in the first few months, but have been Kingsnake for 27 years since, eventually carrying it over to FidoNet and eventually the interwebs.

Since I started this topic, does my username seem stupid given it refers to a mountain rather than a person? At the time when I signed up on HAZ it had more meaning as I was trying to get something going on in terms of music, but that's a lost dream. I've thought of changing to another name for HAZ.

:M2C: Please do not change your name.

Changing avatars is enough trouble for me already when I play Pixel Triva as I do try to remember who took various pictures.... ;)

Ultimately it's up to you but I feel a user name is kinda like a tattoo. It doesn't have to make sence to anyone but you. :M2C:

Changing avatars is OK, but I agree with Bradshaws.

No as a matter of fact you can't have my user name.
But I have an avatar I can let you have for real cheap.....

When I was in high school I grew almost 6 inches my freshman year, so I was 6'3" but only weighed about 125 pounds. To say I was skinny was an understatement. Spent quite a bit of time at my friend's house who had a grandfather that lived with him. (Picture Floyd the barber with a touch of senility and chain smoking hand rolled cigarettes all day) Anyways, his grandfather could not keep everyone straight who passed through their house so he gave each of us a nickname. This was the early 80's when everyone wore short shorts and combined with my toothpick legs my nickname was glaringly obvious.

Started using the name online because I have never had a conflict with another user on any of the other forums I frequent.
