What's the story behind your Acurazine name?

In order to promote more comradery within the 4G Community, tell us why you chose the User Name you chose for Acurazine.

Obviously, I didn't choose a "User Name" except for my given name, but what is the story behind your User Name on Acurazine? And what is your real name (if you'd like to give it out)....


NOTE: THIS IS FOR MEMBERS OF THE 4G TL COMMUNITY ONLY!

Well, I guess I'll get the ball rolling I chose "weather" because that is the focus of my life, I am a meteorologist by trade - and the name is Mike

Spent 6 years in the Marines and we earned the nickname Devil Dogs back in WW1. Lucky number has always been 21.
Not too original but it works.

I'm a huge, HUGE, Prince fan, so it's a play on the title from a song on his 1984 Purple Rain soundtrack by the same name. And like the song says, "Til I find the righteous one, computer blue."

My initials are jjs, and C5 refers to the 5th generation of Corvettes. If you know Corvettes you know we went to the 6th generation in 2005 - you can see by my membership date on this forum that I signed up before the C6's came out. I've now had four C6s and my forum name almost everywhere else is some version of jjsC6.

The exception is the Corvette forum. I signed up on it in 2001 and I had no idea when I put my name in the box that would be the name that came up on the forum.

I'd say I make at least two out of three Sundays. I'm never sure what I'll be driving - usually the Corvette though. FYI, I definitely will not be this weekend.

When I was like 12 years old, my brother came up with this name "Nexuson" I really liked it but I really thought the "u" was not needed. I turned the name into Nexson and on every forum I am on, it is Nexson. I use the same name because I post alot of my fabrication jobs across the internet so I wanted some sort of continutey (sp?) Turned Nexson into "Nexations Creations" which can be googled with many results.
