kadillac style. When I was in High School I played football. I was 6'5 320 lbs. I played Defensive End and Offensive Tackle. Well my coach always told me I was as big as a Cadillac. Whenever we had a game we had to wear a dress shirt and dress pants. I always wore a nice pinstripe suit. So everyone naturally made a big joke out of the Cadillac....... with GQ style.

My last name is Kadwell. So I made it kadillac style. Its stuck I've been out of school 7 years and people still call me Cadillac.

Thought I had already shared...but guess not.

Since I'm from Colorado, snow seemed an obvious choice.
Picked up the "snow_____" theme when using various boards and trying to keep e-mail responses straight by having a slightly different name at each. Now I just use the PM systems, much much easier to keep track of trades and where they were done.

'Course, I've noticed other names starting with snow on some boards that aren't mine, so maybe should've just stuck with one name....oh well.

Guess I could use smilies and change it to "snow blink.gif "

Well my name isn't that meaningful. I'm the youngest in my family, by several years, and when I was younger anything my siblings did or asked for, I'd just say Me Too. Its amazing what people remember from their childhood lol.

As for 88, well 8 is my lucky number. And who wouldn't want double the luck? wink.gif

Well mine isn't that hard to figure out. I'm a Flyers fan, and wanted my ID to reflect that. I buy, sell, and trade pretty much anything Flyers. I started to use the name a while back, and now I use this ID anywhere I deal online.

Yes I found it better you do not use 2-5 different names. People remember you much easier that way! Thanks for sharing
