I've always been real outdoorsy, so my friends would call me mountain man. It was a joke as well, because when I'm cleaned up, I look ultra preppy, I'm scrawny, and I can't grow a beard to save my life.
I added the Florida because of the dearth of mountains in Florida (aside from Space, Thunder, Mons Venus, and Mt. Dora)

It is the brand of cigarettes I used to smoke. I needed a Username way back and looked down and saw my pack sitting on my desk. I quit smoking on 7/25/07.

I was a fan of the TV show when I first started perusing message boards. I've stuck with the same stupid name ever since, even though I haven't watched the show in half a decade.

Harvey Birdman was a legit show.

Originally I was going to BVLGAROKTONOS, but then I realized that Eccentric says all that and more, while saving keystrokes.

My niece called me this, something about a cat, I don't really know.

She doesn't remember and now I have a stupid name. Thinking of changing it though the
old fashioned way. If nothing else it will keep me from peeking at the CE circle jerk. Wouldn't
be the first time.
