    Can't believe it wasn't taken before you signed up.

    It's a nickname of a username from a phish message board referencing an IL town I lived in years ago. clake just kind of stuck.

    Here' mine again.
    Back in 2004, my brother and I were looking on BeerAdvocate. We finally signed on as a duo I guess. But our dogs were named Nuke (after Newcastle, a brown and black shepherd/rot mix) and Taddy (a beautiful Black Lab, named after Samuel Smith's Taddy Porter). These were some of our go-to's back then.
    Plus, I had a cool pic in my avatar for a while of both of the dogs laid out on an outside couch. It was kinda white trash hip. :sunglasses:

    My nickname and jersey number from Jr. High School - I had an afro you could hide all kinds of things in (cigarettes, pencil crayons, that sort of thing.) One day I placed a Kaiser roll in the flat spot on the back of my head where my hair emanated from. The Bunman was born.

    I have three SHOs right now(91 plus model, 93 which was my first and my 95 which is the most famous)... and I don't really have a plan of ever going without at least one SHO in the stable.

    if you google supercharged taurus SHO a lot of pics of my 95 come up. googling 1995 sho has a similar result.

    I used to go by NEp8ntballer on a lot of boards but felt like changing the name as I've kind of left the sport.

    Combination of Root and Scipio. Root, which is a nick name I picked up in my 20s. Root was commonly taken so I was always adding things to it. When I started playing wow I added Scipio, (years ago, I dont play wow anymore. Now I just play games on my ps4) Scipio was the Roman general that defeated Hannibal. I have pretty much used Rootscipio ever since.

    Mine's pretty straightforward...the complexion, appearance, or character preference for the beers I drink are typically dark in nature.

    The first letter of my first name and the rest is jibberish.

    There was a time when I used to be really into drinking Porters. I still do, but I used to as well :wink:

    I've narrowed it down to physics teacher or cashier tech spy. I'm leaning towards spy at the moment. :wink:

    Mine is a reference to one of the favorite songs of my favorite band, Jethro Tull. And a bit of a double entendre, since I am also a history professor by profession.

    My name is Len. I live in a van, down by the River. Hence, my BA name was born.
