Just wanted to see where we came up with our names. Some are pretty obvious but some are not.
Mine was a nickname I recieved in the Army. It originally cam from the movie Spinal Tap. It was the band managers name.

With a last name like Yaiullo, its JustJoe...
Also, I worked at a place years ago that wasn't good at paying invoices on time, and some of the managers there weren't well liked, so when I'd walk into the wholesaler, the owner would say, oh here is Joe from "Facility name removed", and I'd say no, you know me better then that and I don't want to be guilty by association so its:
JustJoe

Mine is my first initial and last name. It was my original AOL email address 10 years ago and I was too lazy to change it. It's just easier for me to make everything the same so i don't have to remember them all. Everyone asumes is Shy Land, i've even had people ask if i'm from chicago.

I was looking at the menu at friendlys one day deciding what to eat and i saw the name of the signature fish sandwitch the " fishamajig" I thought it was pretty funny so I used on another message board, when I saw the name was taken here I had to put a new spin on it. It means absolutley nothing though:confused:
