Hey, you're not Bukka Allen are you?

Nope, but I like his playing.   Seen him with Ian Moore, not sure what happened to him when Ian left for Seattle.    I did most of my club playing out in NY in the MHV and NYC in the late 80's and early 90's.     Looking to get back on stage soon, though.

it all started many a year ago when i finally became tired of the handle twisted_freek, which i used almost everywhere.  i hadn't had internet access for a few years, i forgot the passwords to all my accounts, i needed something new.  where could i possibly find a new handle?  now, i now a lot of honkies think that adding -izzle onto the end of words was a product of the 21st century.  It was not.  If you listen to Dr. Dre's The Chronic you will hear Snoop Doggy Dogg using the terms like rizzle, jizzle, forizzle, and even shizzle, but i digress.  in the early part of the 21st century suburban white boys who thought they were gangstas (not me, i am a drunken potato cart pushin' irish man all the way) started adopting the -izzle word usage thanks once again to Snoop Dogg.  but now the term shizzle almost came to mean whatever you wanted it to.  we now flash back 20ish years ago to the wonderful experiment in socialism, the smurfs.  remember how the smurfs would use the word smurf to mean anything they wanted to?

fetch me that smurf.
may i have a smurf to drink?
my smurf hurts.
smurf you!
get smurfed!
go smurf yourself!
nice smurfs, wanna smurf?

so, we take the word smurf and replace it with shizzle.  why handy you might ask?  because vanityshizzle sounds really fucking gay.

It's my name too.  I've looked it up in "what should I name my baby" books...

interestingly enough, and very much to my delight, this site describes its meaning as "free man"   :D

I've been scorch since my AOL days, back when I was 16 (26 now) it just stuck :)

I am all over the forum world with the same name, sometimes scorchPC as well

*shrug* No idea, here. Most of my great ideas I don't actually remember. Interesting, since I don't do any drugs.

My initials and the year I was born.

My friends and coworkers call me "Rah", and for a while I even had a "RAH" personalized license plate on my auto.

My name is my name. This confuses some people online.

I am often more creative about it, but I figure here, I'm among friends.

My name is my name.
+1 for you.
I am tired of meeting people in NH who I have to memorize TWO names for... and one of them is something ridiculously make up, like "Puke" or "error" or "Markwich"

I figure here, I'm among friends.
You sure you're on the right forum? And not on drugs?
These is libertarians, boy. They don't fight you... means... they lookin' to eat you
