What does your screen name mean?

[cockyhoskins]

Cockyhoskins is a combo of my last name and my fanaticism for the Gamecocks. My wife also says it suits my personality!

[labmonkey]

I work in an Electronics R&D Lab. When I first started here, I was in this one lab where four of us had identicle cubicles along one wall...they looked like cages . Me and a buddy of mine used to say we felt like lab monkeys.

[mithril]

on other boards (chainmaille ones mostly) i go by Mithrilmailler. Mithril comes from the LotR books (big tolkien fan), and the mailler comes from the fact that i make chainmaille. so for this board, i just dropped the mailler and was left with Mithril.

[hex1848]

hex
n.

1. An evil spell; a curse.
2. One that brings bad luck.

tr.v., hexed, hex·ing, hex·es.

1. To put a hex on.
2. To bring or wish bad luck to: “Chilly evening weather and a chain of minor snafus seemed to hex the $5,000-a-seat gala on Governors Island” (Newsweek).

1848 is the year my collage fraternity was founded. I've been using hex1848 as my AIM screen name for years, so I figured I would keep it and use it for everything else. (Its also what I use for my DMOZ editing)

[Locard]

Well, I have been a Criminal Investigator for a little over 4 years now....while in MPI school, they taught us about a theory--Locard's theory. The theory deals in the transformation of physical evidence from one place to another, no matter how small. For example, getting out of your car, you have seat fibers stuck to you....go inside a friends house and you leave some of those car fibers on his couch, and pick up more couch fibers....get it....so when something happens at your friends house, and I collect fibers.....I match the seat type with vehicles of known visiters and....well you get it....

I liked the name, and have never forgotten the theory....
