I've been there quite a few times. It's a beautiful place during the summer, but pretty harsh in the winter...If you're ever around, and the weather allows for riding, get in touch. I live about half an hour south of Marstrand.

As for my SN, well, I'm half thai, and the average swede is called a Svensson, so it's those two put together.

The name is from my favourite skate cartoon in the '70s version of Skateboarder Mag. When I grow up I want to be just like him!

Cool as that would be, I'm in America.

**radioactive_matt** · 11-18-2005 07:22 AM

yeah mine sucks, i thought the word 'radioactive' was cool when i was about 12 and i've kinda stuck with it since.

It has no relevance to the band radioactive man, or that my farts smell really bad (both are suggestions put forward by people i have met who ihave previously communicated with solely online)

**mangels** · 11-18-2005 10:53 AM

Full last name is Mangelsdorf. It was actually my older brother's nickname before it was mine. When I was in high school a friend of mine heard someone call my brother Mangels and he liked it so he started calling me Mangels. Before I knew it, everyone was calling me Mangels - even my teachers. To this day I bet there are people that don't know that my first name is Tom or that my whole last name is Mangelsdorf.

I have two daughters now and the name was attached to them when they were in high school too. The name actually followed my youngest daughter to college.

It'll be interesting to see if their kids get called Mangels - if they ever have any kids.

I like your mother.

Upon my return to skating (when there were about 70 'fishes), the first few rounds in the local park were done in the early light, usually followed (later) by groms looking down and saying, "Hey ol'dude, whatcha doin' in the bottom of the bowl?"

i was told once that i always seem to walk around in a Daze

then i used it as a tag name when i actively wrote graffiti

**king of nothing** · 11-21-2005 09:52 PM

On the internet I'm known as king of nothing and blue fish. When signing up at Silverfish I thought it'd seem kinda cheesy to be blue fish. So......

king of nothing -- I'm a stay-at-home dad. Some days it feels like the kids rule. I also have a stylin' king of nothing t-shirt.

blue fish -- "One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish." --Dr. Seuss. On our blog I'm blue fish, my wife is red fish, and we have 2 kids.

**Ffejtech** · 11-21-2005 09:57 PM

Ffejtech- my name backward plus I'm a machinist plus when i raced R/C cars heavily I would make new parts or chassis and stuff, it was "Ffejteched", using some logic or just plain inventing or figureing something out is "Ffejtech", like "McGuyvering". Plus saying peoples names backwards came from my Grandpa.....

**hi everybody** · 11-21-2005 10:46 PM

i came up with mine when i first joined the fish and msn and such... so i figured "hi everybody!" would make sense...plus the simpsons is awesome.

**SlashBoard** · 11-22-2005 05:27 AM

In the goof old MUD days, My Immortal needed a name, so "Dread" be it.
Than Slashdot came around, and I dubbed myself "SlashDread".
Since then I have used "Slash" and/or "Dread" combo with the site. So SlashBoard it is.

Say hello to AstroMUD...
