Neuromancer 10-01-2009 12:47 PM

Neuromancer.

changed a couple of times to fit forums once typoed as nueromancer.

Either some derivation adding a 0 for an O or neuro42 tieing two of my favorite books together.

Only other nik I remember using is Stoic Sentinel once and probably Hiachi (high school nickname from the Princeton University radio show 'thanx 4 sharin', where I wrote in proclaiming to be the new Islamic messiah) (even created my own version of sanskrit :p (got on a kick after reading the old testament and the koran)

Oddly no Punk name for me, although I did spend a few years hanging in the hardcore/punk circles.

Gunslinger
times changed - 1, previously GunslingerOCS
reason for change - OCS was a BHD squad I was in, quit BHD to start benching. :D
meaning: The Gunslinger (Roland of Gilead) is the main character in the "Dark Tower" series by Stephen King. My avatar is from one of the book covers, and travels with me everywhere. The series is one of my all time favorites, of the hundreds of books I've read.

RomDominance 10-01-2009 03:25 PM

So you like to "read" things with pretty lady pictures Supes, "no biggie", lol.

Name: RomDominance
Times changed: never
Name Meaning: Worked my way up from ensign to admiral in a Romulan fleet with over thirty guys flying for the Empire. The fleet was called Red Talon and with all races included, our membership was over 200 at its peak. The game was Starfleet Command II /Orion Pirates....The Roms were the most feared and respected race in the game, no-one wanted to fly against us, thus Dominance. :alien:

I used to read about a book a week before I had kids. :laughing:

Some of my favorite authors: Terry Brooks, Stephen King, Terry Goodkind, R.A. Salvatore, Tom Clancy, Robert Ludlum, George R.R. Martin...

No quiet time anymore. :Dizzy:

Brooks king and Goodkind I have read a lot of them when I was younger, *sigh also big reader pre-kids... No time anymore.

Not a big fan of Clancy, to dry, Cussler is too much a nerd to me. His main character is awesome at everything, and is written like the author thinks HE is the main character. Reads like a high school project.

Pulp fiction is good at times though, specially for long Bus/train rides.
