I made up the name while doing a report about grey wolves for one of my classes. I found the picture while I was studying on the internet.

[(Utapau - pau) + Mustafar - Musta] = Utafar

and now I just use it for most usernames

WFD = Winsted Fire Department. 336 = my employee # with the city of Winsted. Hence wfd336. I used to use my car #. (a number which defines rank within the fire service) but just in case I get promoted or demoted I figured that this way would be easier.

Ham- I was trying to think of a memorable name on CC's sister site. And I was eating a ham sandwitch at the time.


CC's sister site : Lordoftheringsrisk. I know its not officially but its where 5 or 6 of us came from. Including : Dussle, Me , DEUSBELLI, and knight of orient. Along with countless guests. 8)

Orient- land of the crusades, kingdom of jerusalem....and, it sounds good. the crusades are my favorite era of all history.

Post by flipper1219 »

flipper - this is the nickname i was given by a co-worker. i tend to have alot of accidents. almost all of which result in a head injury. at the time he came up with it i had recently fallen out of the luggage compartments of two seperate 727's (we worked the ramp at ATL airport). during the same time period i had also totally out three vehicles over the course of about 90 days (1/month), one of which i rolled the truck and was thrown from the vehicle, another i was thrown through the windshield. he started calling me flipper because i always seem to land on my head and keep on going.

1219 - is the original anniversary date of my first fiancee and me. she later left for another guy but i had already used the date so many times that it just seemed overly involved to change it. (or maybe with all the head injuries i simply cant remember any other #'s).

on a side note even with all the accidents (the list is much longer than this post) i have never broken any bones.

Hitandrun is the name I DJ under. It comes from a JA tune that mentions a rudeboy called hitandrun. (It's one of the courtroom tunes, he is being sent down)
