i had to come up with a name while at circuit city 7 years ago. It was for one of those promos, sign up for 3 years of compuserve and they gave you $400 bucks. So Angeleyez is b/c people told me i had the eyes of an angel and the 0072 was the last 4 digits of my phone #. all the simple numbers were taken. i've used it ever since. I have started to use the names of my "kids" (my dogs) LuckyNGromit. Maybe someday angeleyez0072 will be laid to rest.....

Got my nic when I was in high school, I lost $14,000 on a foot ball game. It was all money I had let ride from previous bets that all started with a $20 pool on when someone would have a baby. Double or nothings can add up to a lot after a while one double or nothing a week for about 10 weeks. I was getting greedy. I did cash out some of it early along and took it down to 3500 riding on the next bet. I have had the name ever since.

I didn't take nearly as long to come up with my name as many of you. My HHR is Sandstone and I live near the beach in the Florida panhandle.

yeshua63043, I grew up in South St Louis County. I also spent a lot of time going to custom car shows in the area in the 70s. A close friend was one of the best customizers in the area. He had a silver chopped '69 Camaro with multi-colored flames. Have you ever seen it?

Well mine is easy.

I have a 1969 Nova, my first car was a 1968 Nova and I wanted a diecast Nova for display on my shelf. When I first got online way back when a basic computer cost about $3800.00 I started using that name. There wasn't any diecast Novas in my fav. years 1968-1972 back then.

Well to make a long story short, I now have over 200 Diecast Novas from 1968-1972. Every scale and size imaginable. Over 60 1/18 scale alone.

I have used the name on just about everything I do. So it has stuck.
