    Tone had hops. But he forgot to bring them to the dunk contest once.

    I needed a new gamer tag for Counter-Strike 13 years ago. Was reading a book series I really liked and the main characters last name was Rahl. I always read it as Rhal so didnt even notice the fuck up for years, once I figured it out I liked the way I fucked it up more then the original so I stuck with it and use Rhal or some variation of it for everything.

    You should have just asked me to come up for something for you. It most likely would have Dog in it but people love dogs.

    Once, there was this guy who,
    called himself "tester" on the Trail Blazers forum
    But when asked why he's called that,
    he claimed that he was a crash test dummy.
    He couldn't quite explain it, it'd always just been that.
    Mmm mmm mmm mmm, mmm mmm mmm mmm...

    speedythief originally from basketballboards, then basketballforums, speedy thief being a colloquialism for velociraptor (lat., swift robber), am a Raptors fan.

    Shortened it to speeds which I like because it was what I was being referred to as by other posters and it can be read upside down and is close to being a palindrome.

    But hey, much love to you and yours....

    And here I was kinda liking the new and improved HCP. But that's okay. We all get a little cranky when Mama says, "not tonight".........

    Oh lord... it was 7-8 years ago. Hell, I don't even remembering playing Conans... the only concert I saw there was with OneSideZero.. and I can't remember who opened for them (If it was us, or Syx... I swear I'm only 32! haha)

    As far as roadie(ing), school and work have sucked my life. haha.

    Holy crap. Syx? Now that brings back memories. Some good kids back in the day, but boy there were some Swil/Syx clashes amongst our fans.
