What Does Your Username Mean?

[ambient_6]

ambient_6 is twofold: ambient <-> 6

6 because I drive a mazda6 (and are associated with mazda forums).

ambient = to completely envelop; to surround.
This word jumps from my original name ambience (also called ambiance) because my license plate could only fit 7 letters
ambience = the special atmosphere or mood created by a particular environment.

Besides the fact that I listen to music that I deem the 'ambience' type, I originally used @mbience* as my Halo 1 name. Took it to all the tournaments. I use ambient_6 everywhere now, including my website (in progress) - ambient6.net

weird, huh.

Mine comes from my car. The 2002-2005 Honda Civic Si is model named EP3 by the manufacturer. The forum for "ep" enthusiasts is ephatch.com. EP_threezy was the only available way to do name myself.

There's a LOT of miners still trapped there waiting for you to rescue them, too.

Loved that you could flip, roll, fly in any direction -- experience vertigo. Neat game for its time.

Darn, now I want a Treo version.

Silly but true:
So in the early 80's, I was very heavily involved in the local music scene - Hard Rock/Heavy Metal. So one by one, all my other buddies started leaving that scene for Country music, mainly because they liked to eat, and country was in demand, and hair rock was a very limited scene. I refused to sell out and once made a statement to some of my old hair pals that when they were in some VFW singing Delta Dawn to a bunch of 90 year olds, I would still be rocking . . . . So they started calling me . . . . .

Stillrockin. . . . . .

Not in New York. Hair bands were all the rage. I'll have to dig up a photo of "the good old days" somewhere. I played in a band for 10 years - we were real serious about music and hair. Think Poison meets Warrant meets Skid Row meets Bon Jovi. That was us. We played all originals and played the local club circuit here in NY. I still have my guitars, but rarely pick them up. I purchased the cable to connect my guitar to my Mac and had plans of using Apple's Garage Band -- but haven't gotten around to it yet. Good to see you're still rockin' out. Some of my old band mates are still jammin'.

[infested]

This nickname just stuck, when I was a wee bitty child, I used to play a game called "Starcraft" like 24/7. The name just comes from an Infested terran. Not really sure why I choose it, heh.
