Welcome qwiksdraw - If you stick around you might see some posts by Kabong30. :mrgreen:

My name is actually Brian. Though I don't find it difficult to spell, apparently lots of folks do, making it brain. That nickname stuck.

I shortened my last name and then the area code of the city I currently live in, I couldn't think of anything else to use, I normally don't post of forums but this one is much better than others I have been in. :hurry:

My name is Tom. I've lived in Texas my entire life, which makes me a Texan. Thus, the user name. :cool:

It's my stage name inspired by an infamous sandwich.

I'm a deejay and emcee. I used to work weddings, quinceañeras, bar mitzvas, and sweet 16s in college to pay the bills. Now I have a good day job but I still do a few corporate parties a year. Less drama. :lol:

Mine came from an old Magic the Gathering card, liked the name of it at the time and it has stuck ever since
Happily serving in the USAF.
