Default Your forum name/"handle"

Ok .... I was just wondering? .... Why did you pick your forum name???

Does it mean anything, or say something about you, or was it just something random?

All my friends call me "shakey" in real life, because I suffer from something known as "Benign Essential Tremour" , which means that my hands shake. It has it's good points tho, as I dont get asked to go to the bar very often! lol lol lol

So.... why did you pick yours???

Aken was an online nickname, got involved with a group of friends who all used nicknames, and eventually it stuck in real life also. So yeah, everyone calls me Aken.

Vegas, cause I live here.

Rebel because the UNLV mascot is the Runnin Rebel, and I went to UNLV for undergrad and go there for law school.

scorpion is my online nick, but since i try to open an account anywhere, it was taken.

one day one of my friends had to open an account for me and he couldnt come up with anything so he used VMU (Visual Memory Unit, simply, memory card for Sega Dreamcast)

no one ever used this one so i have been using it ever since. (way over 10 years, whenever Dremcast came out)

MadHattr is a nickname from my dis-reputable past, and since it's a popular one 059 is the year I was born. Kinda like VMU.
Ern is me RL nickname for the last 35 years. Got that because, before the afore-mentioned dis-reputable, I had the whole "Ernie Douglas thing" going on. You know, the thick, black coke-bottles and pocket pencil-protector? For you younguns', goggle "My Three Sons (a tv show). Hence Ern/Ernie.

For the terminally curious, my mom calls me, Brian.

Ern
