I love to dive as well!

As people are also explaining their titles and sigs, here goes.

My title, Banana Coloured, should be self-evident. The Lorax itself is yellow, and I myself am green. (pun, pun, bad pun...)

My sig is a quote from Dr. Seuss' Lorax, and also a link to the blog of the same name, which is about the plants and trees of Ecuador.

my title came to me as my mom got me my first banana. it has since passed away...god rest its soul, and i just couldnt get enough. so like a junkie i craved more bananas....thus the banana junkie

I tried so many names but they'd been taken so I just reverse my last name and first name but cut it short.

Bananaman88 · 07-22-2008, 11:59 AM

Come on Rmplmnz!!! You're killin' us! Where's your explanation?

Taylor · 07-22-2008, 12:36 PM

I know Chris' explanation, but I would never have guessed it...

I was truly blessed to be in Belize for over a year and a member of the British Forces there was also a PADI instructor ! A group of us got certified and went to the reef almost every weekend .
Now that I'm home I wanna go to the dive parks and springs in Fla .
Wait for me guys !

Well, my name is Zac, I live in North Carolina at the moment. I Suppose I could change it to Zac in Texas when I get back out there, but I would lose all of the things with this Screen name, so I won't change it.

Mine came from my company name, JP Floors & More.. which thankfully I believe I'm closing the doors of and just finished our last job 3 weeks ago. I plan on returning to school this fall if I can get the financial aid aspect of it cleared! The J is my last initial, and P my partners last initial.

Oh no, Josh! I think we need your services on our floors... LOL

Oh well, education is more important.

jpfloors · 07-22-2008, 10:08 PM

Well it's make roughly $30-80 an hour (usually averages around $60) for two weeks straight (generally a bathroom in labor is around $3000-5000) and then not know when your next job is if you don't have anything lined up, or make $40-60 an hour with absolute work no matter where you live and get 1.5-2.5 for holiday and overtime pay. Going into nursing!!!

natedogg1026 · 07-22-2008, 10:52 PM

Man guys, this thread just keeps going. This is the best one I've ever started. Thanx again for all the replies. Come on Chris. I may just have to make up something. Maybe he's lost in his jungle.

SOCALROCKER · 07-22-2008, 11:15 PM

Well here is my screen name that I use here.I was working in the Record Biz in the 80's and, after asking my grandmothers neighbor that I needed a job where he worked.He asked me why I wanted a job there so I told him I loved listening to local rock and roll with the bands that are playing at the local club's out here in Southern California and love the music biz.So that is why I wanted to work there because I could get all the music that bands I listened to.I told him so he hired me.Now his business was from New York and all he could remember my name was to call me SOCALROCKER.So the name stuck with me for many years after that because I am still listening to ROCK N ROLL music.

SOCALROCKER aka Mitch
