Actually....
Yes, just a pattern on a keyboard that I've had since the original Yahoo message boards and the BBSs before that going back probably 15-20 years now ? It was fast and easy and its been available ever since. I've had each of them from 1 to the current #6 , used to be to help keep up with different boards and emails.
Estate = real estate
I got my real estate license back in 2002-2003
Thought the boom would last forever....4 life...
Which it didn't....as everything is indeed, what goes around comes around. Stuck with this username even though I'm no longer in this business.

Mine is real simple, ever since I was a teenager I've been known simply by my initials "TK"
The kiwi part comes from my pride of being a New Zealander on what is primarily an American site.
And in case you're wondering about the upside swoosh thing it's the current logo of the McLaren F1 team.
Bruce Mac was an NZer who was a very innovative designer and driver of race cars in the late 60's and 70's. If you're interested in historic motorsport try this : Trio at the Top - Television | NZ On Screen

Mine's basically a drug-reference from my mis-spent youth. I was one of the wilder
ones in my particular circles. So I aquired the moniker MadHatter. I've grown up
(a little), since then. ;-) Been using some variation on the theme, for simplicity's
sake, since BBS's were all dial-up connections.
Added the 059 (0 as a placeholder +birth year) to account for the popularity
of the name.
To further complicate the issue, my RL name is Brian. My mom is the only one who
uses it, though. To the rest of the world (including my wife), my nick-name Ernie (Ern)
is who I am. I aquired that, when I was a geeky/gawky kid who looked just like Ernie
Douglas (from My Three Sons, an old tv show), right down to the coke-bottles and
pocket-protectors. You, young-uns, may have to google some of those references. lol

Lets hear about yours.... Just a pattern on a keyboard, or is there more to it?
Mine: the 74 references highway 74 (ortega) in cali. I spend most of my travel time commuting over it to work and back. Its a twisty mountain road that is made for bikes. Unfortunatly, it claims many lives each year. The demon part is because i have become quite good on that road with all the practice i get, 20k a year for the past 10 years. I haunt that road, at quite a fast pace.
