But one question is still there... Why did your friends start calling your 'Salty'? Have you ever asked them?

It's a long and sordid affair full of intrigue and mystery.

tongue






Actually, it's because I was a surfer in junior high and high school. There was a surfshop called Salty's where I got all my stuff so between the two, the name stuck. I've had it since 1990. In fact, February will be 20 years that I've had this nickname. It's on my high school ring instead of my real name. I also have a cartouche that I got while in Kuwait that has Salty in Arabic.

Wow! That's a story I haven't expected. I thought something like "loves to eat lots of salt" or so. wink
Written in Arabic is cool! grin

Yeah it's pretty cool. It's in English down one side and in Arabic down the other side. I keep it in my jewelry box most of the time though. It's one of those things that can't be replaced so I'd rather not lose it.

Long ago I went by Lady_Jedi_Skywalker out of nothing wittier to put as a name and well I borrowed the idea from others at the time. I had thought of Rogue-Jedi but someone had already claimed it. So while I was pondering what to type for a username I ended up falling on this really nice icon of Anakin Solo with Fallen Hero written on it. Considering a lot of my favorite characters both in SW and in other works have died , I thought it would be a pretty concept. So, that's how I ended up with the current name. happy

xSchmitterSx

I got this name for very very long . . .
I had as hobby organise underground hardcore - metal - punk / straight edge gigs . And no one never name me by my first Stijn , it's always with my lastname Smyter ( short version for Desmyter ) . And there was a guy who wanted to call my name : Smyter but he choke and came out as " schmitters " . And from that day my nickname became " Schmitters .

The two " X's " in my nickname , stand for Straight Edge ( drug free way of life )

So this is my username / nickname : " xSchmitterSx "

Hi
I have had drwhogoesthere for longer than I can remember. My brother, who was on the net as andygoesthere came up with the name. I think its a great name. I know its not a Star Wars name.

Mine is some clever wordplay on a well known Star Wars object. See if you can figure it out.
