Ha - my username here is kind of bland. "Mark E" was my "rave" name (very creative I realize) back when we used to go clubbing a lot. 14 was my number in high school. :)

On many other boards, my handle is Beefmaster. My brother and I have a long running "feud" about who is the better BBQ-er (although really it's not even close, in my favor :D ). One day, I found a beef industry publication (I am in corp. communications) called Beefmaster Cowman, which I adopted as my "hip-hop name". My brother got wind of this and shortened it first to "Beefmaster", which I adopted, and then later to "Beef" or "Beefy" depending on what kind of smart-ass mood he's in.

Translations in Italian or Latin languages can have a few different meanings.

Mine was a lack of imagination. On all my other sites, I go by FizzerRider. As this is an FZ6 site, I figured Steph would work better.

Before they were born, we called our first Voltron, and our second Deuce. People inexplicably stopped asking after that...

Well, this is the first ever forum I have joined. (and by far the best, too!)
I just used my first name, as I was not feeling terribly creative at the time.
Maybe I should have used my college nickname, KILLER JOE. :eek:

Not sure if its the name or the cow print hat though :D please tell me the hat is Tassie bound :thumbup:

I have ten of that hat! Jess will make me bring at least one of them! :spank:

so is it WOLF Ford, or Woool Ford?

It's actually Wool-ford...was originally woolfork way back when my dad's side of the family originally migrated to Australia from Ireland...

I like the spelling of my name because people always ask me why is it spelled that way. So I use it for most things except for my gamer tag. Its English in case no one knew.

I actually have a nickname in real life that my coworkers/friends use for me: Goop

Maybe I should should change that on the forum...Can that be done or do I have to create an all new account?
