While filling out the page to join Celticsblog I typed my email address into the username area. Realizing my mistake I just erased the @ blah blah blah dot blah blah blah and so my username.

When we first got the internet back around 1997, we had a dialup 28.8k modem... the internet provider limited usernames to 8 characters... LaryBird and LarryBrd were already taken... LarBrd33 was the best I could come up with.

In my country (Greece) most male names end with "s"... When I made this account, back in 2007, I had some kind of a crush on Jessica Alba! I was talking about her so much that some of my friends started calling me "Albas"
Oh, and I was born in '89, so... there you have it! ;D

mine? named after my favorite female poet in korean history. i translated a book that had her poems and liked her every since.

for those keeping score at home, the korean script is 황진이.

plus, with this i dont have to worry too much about this username being confused with similar names.  ;D

the "_1" from me just learning emails and not knowing i did NOT have to add such things.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

I love rock 'n roll, and I love Jesus, so I especially love rock music that honors Him
