Model Name of my mountain bike (Hoo Koo E Koo by Garry Fisher).
Figured it would be odd enough to sound interesting and unique. Unfortunatly, not unique enough for places as big as eBay. Had to prefix it with my initials (jal_hookooekoo).
Too late to change my handle here, but I've recently come up with a new one that was unique enough to use on eBay. I'm a Star Wars fan since the age of about 10. The new villan in Episode II was Count Doo Ku. The name when so well with Hoo Koo E Koo that I've changed my eBay account to HooKooDooKu. Perhaps that handle will be unique enough to use elsewhere.
Will after reading these replys mine sounds boring but after years of collecting this and that set I decided that it was time to find a nitch and it was half dollars working on a nice set of kennedys ( MS 66 is fine by me )and also Modern Comm Halves ( NGC Sorry to offend anyone ). If I ever get my Kennedys done I will move to Franklin Halves. So I Like Half's and acording to my Wife I'm nuts for buying these coins so HALFNUT

I'm 6'7". What else would I use?. Tootawl is what my high school band director called me (among a few other names!). I'm just too tall for a lot of things. There are already a few people with the handle or account name of tootall so I changed the spelling a little bit.

I like the mythological creature. I like most animals with myths behind them. I like most animals period. Sooo... my nn is Phoenix and I have a wolf as an icon.
Two addictions- coins!!! And SMILEYS. I couldn't quit either one even if I wanted to!
Thanks for the applause, Bear.....us DJ's live for it. I was a radio dj for a while and a side business for quite a while as well. I guess you could call me a walking music encyclopedia. I can usually hear about 2-3 seconds of a song and tell you the name, artist and album. I have about 800 cd's and 1000's of albums and 45's.....but don't use the vinyl at all any more.

I like to trade stocks and have used this name to chat in msn's chat rooms among other things for quite some time including other message boards, so I decided to use it here.
Its the Model of My 64 Ford and I am a Man. (Slightly Old). Basically it also refers to the Items I first started selling on Ebay. Mid 60's Fairlane Parts. Ebay Seller ID also.Ken
I decided not to use my ebay handle since it was too obvious (my name being used). I came up with this handle because it is the goal of my coin collecting pursuits. What this means is that I am not looking for coins in Good and Fine conditions. Too low profit potential in those.

What would your slabbed coins be worth if the grading services went out of business? What would your coins be worth if the Internet was taken offline for good?
I am white (caucasian), and my wife sometimes calls me the White Tornado. It's usually when I am running around the house trying to do too many things at once.
Mine isn't a tribute to one of Shakespeare's shadier characters. It's a nickname I picked up playing schoolyard b-ball with some older kids in the neighborhood way back when. I was shy, especially around them, but my outside shot was a lock.
My name is Dog, I'm an old time collector that collects everything. As a side collection I do 1697, 1797, 1897, and 1997 coins cause my kid was born that year. I wanted to use dog_xx97 like I do on eBay but CU don't allow the _ in nicks so Dog97 it is.
Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
My first name is Lee and many of my customers (usually of Korean or Vietnamese descent) call me Mr Lee. They find it kind of funny as it's one of the most common sur names there. I've been quizzed by all of them as why I have a last name for a first name. It just stuck.
Mine is almost self explanatory since I'm so big into clad coins. Also knowing that most collectors want to point at clads and scream like something out of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" or the innocent of heart who know that the king wears no clothes, I wanted to let everyone know that I feel their pain and reassure everyone that I'm really not with- out clothes.
I hope to start a business soon using the same name and for a logo a man wearing noth- ing but a barrel and a crown.
My screen name represents the minimum grade and level of eye appeal of all 140 19th century coins in my collection. (Okay, I admit to having one MS64DMPL Morgan, but it's pretty nice.) Plus, the icon represents my name.
I got bit bad by the classic car bug (muscle Mopars) about 10 years ago......right around the time coins got to be boring and were going downhill every month. My current toy: a 1969 Plymouth roadrunner convertible. Meep.....Meep.
No one will ever get down far enough to read this so I can make up anything I want to. Aethelred II was king of England from AD 978-1016 & I have an Unc. silver penny from his reign. I have used Aethelred.ii as my eBay name since 1998, so I thought I'd use it here too.

I named the first two sets I sold after my grandson - Joshua. Since I put together another set named for him, it was easier to use his name for my handle. I have a granddaughter named Alison (Ally) so I had to form another different set for her (can't favor one over the other) but since Joshua is older (3 1/2 to 2) I use his name.
One night in a bar I became an ordained minister of the "Universal life Church" I thought it was funny Coose has been my brothers pet name for me for years.
Lord - I am the most boring person here. Just grabbed any four letters to open a Yahoo email account that wasn't already taken ARCO17 is where it ended. As clever and witty as I am, when I came to this site I....gasp.....kept the same name, but masterfully shortened it to just plain ol' ARCO.
Sorry guys, my mom is calling to come eat my porridge!
One of my employees had set up his hotmail account using the name "Terrycomputer", since his first name was Terry and he was a computer salesman. So I figured I could use hotmail to correspond about coins, thus "Joecoin" My first name and my first love combined. Are you bored to tears yet?ZZZZzzzzzzz.
Well Trime ( 3CS) s my prime interest as a collector. As a kid I always thought these were the oddest and kookiest of coins. I bought a few common and probably whizzed example ages ago. Latter, I decided that this was a series that was under- appreciated but with many very rare examples that I might be able to afford. I began a collection that is not bad by any standards. If any wonder where and why there are decreasing examples in this series, I confess that I have them. My interests have expanded to other under-collected series.
"Clackamas" is my most favorite river. Its in north western Oregon and if located on the east coast would be a national park. Here in Oregon its just beautiful, which means they can still clear cut the trees and mountains surrounding it. It has some of the most spectacular timber you could ever set your eyes on surrounding it. The states largest cedar is 75 yards from its bank (I discovered the tree), the tree is 13 ft. in diameter and probably close to 1000 years old. The Clackamas river use to have awesome salmon fishing but due to logging the runs are really low with the Silver (aka Coho) runs now in the endangered species category. When I was in HS - P.S. I am only 33, we use to catch and see Coho all the time. I have not see one in 8 years. Those of you on the east coast that think that the Enviro nuts out west want to save everything and do not know what they are talking about have not seen the destruction in the last 20 years that has happened here. I am a GOP thru and thru but now a hard core enviro as well. If you do not support the road less rule or a ban on logging of old growth you have no idea what you are throwing away. Well I'll get off the soap box now.
construct is short for social constructionist. It is also a term in social constructionism meaning a problematized abstraction created by society and accorded power. There is nothing fundamentally "ME", and I recognize that I am embedded in my cultural context.

I get the handle, but your icon leaves me a bit freightened. Would that be something that comes out of the dog?

Taro is my first name.
I should have created a better handle name

How about an example of a "social construct"?
Certainly sexual orientation is a social construct. I suspect gender is also probably a social construct. Insanity, madness is a social construct.
