Re: How'd you pick your nick?

Here's my story
My son plays games on the internet, and although he's moved onto Quake wars ect now, he used to play Jedi knight muti player, and his "nick" was Flyingbrit...I couldn't resist when he was at school, and I was on the right shift I used to play as either "oldfart" or "britsdad" and it's sort of stuck (this was in the days of 56k)

Re: How'd you pick your nick?

Ever since I was about 6 years old I have collected sports cards. Mostly baseball but some football and basketball as well. I used to participate in a lot of sports memorabilia and card shows. Cardmn is just a truncated version of "card man" which I was called because I had so many sports cards (I still have thousands upon thousands). Al is just short for Alan. Put them together and you get cardmnal

Re: How'd you pick your nick?

Mine's just my email address set up by a previous employer. It's so easy to remember that I have been using it ever since. And yes, I remember prodigy. It was bought out by SWBT, who changed to SBC, and is now AT&T. I still have my prodigy account and email address, even though it is owned by AT&T.
