    My real name is Seisnuf 4. Tsuj, so it made sense that I could remember this handle easily.
    ...eight, nine, TEN! Yep! Still got all my fingers!

      I needed something for computer usage that was unique and I have never found anyone using this before. As a morse intercept operator in the early 60s for the USAF, we used to copy lots of numbers in 5 digit series and guhor was easy to type between each group of numbers. It is Russian for "I hear nothing".

          see, 430752 adds up to 21. Or, 4+3=7, 0+7=7 and 5+2 = 7. Thus, 7+7+7 = 21! blackjack no matter how you cut it.

          Or is it the legal drinking age? 7 oz of 7 and 7?

          I dunno, all of the above is crap anyway. Years ago I was assigned 430752 as a login on some long forgotten site. Since then, when I try to chose a login, usually all my faves are long gone. I did get "cubsfan" on ebay since I was, I guess, one of the first there back in like 95 or 96, but nowhere else. Believe it or not, but jameson or cjameson or etc is usually taken. So, now I just go for 430752 knowing it will never, ever be taken. And don't you people go getting any ideas!

            Ironhat is the English translation of my German surname. 'Chiz' was the nickname of my uncle Charles who was a tank driver and was killed in Holland in 1943. I'm honored to share his name. That nickname for Charles is uncommon - found a person or two on the web with it but as a kid delivering newpapers I a couple of older customers with it. So, I don't know if it's regional to western Pennsylvania or due to the heavy Eastern European immigrant influence there. If anyone has a clue, feel free to e-mail me.

            Later,
            Chiz
            Blessings,
            Chiz

              Mine kind a has a geeky background.

              SHADOWFOX name began when I was in grade school. ZOIDS toys were famous back then, it was famous way before TRANSFORMERS came into the scene. I like the name so much that I've used it as my user name for all message boards that I go to.

                GPA is not Grade Point Average. (obviously) It is for Grandpa. I never had any kids but I am a Grandpa. That is special. 61 is the year I was born and I am also 6 ft. 1 in. tall. Of course this was my wife's idea.

                  In the late 60's I worked in a manufacturing plant where one day I found myself with 4 other employes named Chuck. So I changed mine to Charlie. Here I added the x which is a big part of my last name Exner. When I was in the navy it was normal for people to just call me x. My son has had much the same experince.
