That was Gordon who requested a self-ban after people piled on him for the dramatic departure and the subsequent comeback, hence the "took ball, went home"

Well, I'm stuck with Iowa_Flames_Fan, even though I no longer live in Iowa, and I'm not from there, don't ever want to go back.... When I joined it was during the lockout, and I never imagined that lo these many years later I'd still be flushing my life down the giant time toilet that is CP, so I didn't plan the nickname too carefully.

But actually, I don't mind. I kind of like being called "Iowa" as a nickname--kind of like we're all army buddies or something.

Iowa, I'm of the same ilk. I love the nicnames that are nicnames for our nicnames!

HD and I were talking over beers in the playoffs last year how we both got a kick out of people shortening our names to HD, and MQS and alike.

Ha! I never thought of it that way until now--

but my guess is that somewhere out there is a graduate student in Communications doing a dissertation on this very subject.

First of all it's Communication (no S, communications would be a wiring telephones, so I'm told, I had it hardwired into my head to drop the S)

Regardless, I think I know a guy that might have done his masters thesis on it . . . might have been more on blogging, but I wouldn't be surprised if he touched on it. Now I'm curious, to Facebook I go!

Some of us don't have nicknames....

Does that mean we're not army buddies?

Listen, bud:

Unless you were there with me in the Mekong delta, sitting in that swift boat in the sweltering heat while the VCs were lobbing grenades at us from both banks....

You don't get to call me Iowa.



Seriously? Your problem is that your nickname can't be shortened. Az? 'Zure? A-dog? None of them really work for me.

We could call you "Idea Man..."
