OP
Believe it or not but my nick has absolutely nothing to do with "snow"! I "grabbed" my nick from the movie "Smokey and The Bandit". Being a truck fan(atic) I instantly fell in love with the truck in that movie and soon adopted the callname of the truckdriver Cleatus "Snowman" Snow. This now 25 years old movie is still my fav movie and I have lost all count of how many times I have seen it now!! Now that´s a big 10-4 ;) ..::We´ve got a long way to go and short time to get there::.. (Part of the chorus from the "Bandit" themesong, also one of my fav songs, which btw it was song by the actor playing...... Cleatus Snow (Jerry Reed)) ;) :snow

LOL @ :snow Yee haw - East bound and down... :P Elwin - aka Elwin Ransom. Almost everyone knows that C.S. Lewis wrote the Chronicles of Narnia. But few people have read his Science Fiction Trilogy* - written even before his friend Tolkien´s more famous works... :) The reluctant protagonist of that trilogy was a mild mannered professor of philology named Dr. Elwin Ransom - my hero... {:p *Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, That Hideous Strength

There is a scruffy looking character called Scarebear in the cartoon ´Yogi´s Space Race´ (so I´m told) and when I used to ride my motorcycle to college with my long hair out the back, I used to look like him apparently :D So other students started calling me Scarebear back in ´90 and it´s stuck since :)

My nick comes from the old web. When I first started on the web not all the english bowser and e-mail client accepted the special characters in my name "Bérubé". So it became BruB quickly with e-mail replies.

luci is shorten for luciash :D seriously, i choosed my nick a long time ago when i was dedicated to Blaxxun´s VRML Colony City (Cybertown nowadays) and Active Worlds community. It was my first need for nick to register as user and so i had to create some nick quickly. allmost everything was already claimed (my real name is lukas - lucas or luke in english if you like) and i finally got an idea to choose "luciash" (i had feeling i heard it somewhere... in some fairytale?). these nice ppl at blaxxun´s community started to call me luci (it´s shorter and they didn´t know how to pronounce luciash :) ). today i´m using luci officially as my nick, cause it´s short (again) and surprisingly to me it´s almost every time still not occupied for registration. (BTW: actually if i would be born as a girl, my parents wanted give me girl name lucie - what is lucy in english! LOL )

he he he you can not always count on the English language being the way it should, but luci, lucy, and in the Engish language if you want to spell it like lusee or lucee beleive me they´ll do it........ but look at the song by Johnny Cash, a boy named Sue :-) They say the English language is one of the hardest to learn, I think I agree, a word most of the time is never spelt like it sounds lol

Heh, in Holland everybody thinks he/she can do the scandinavian tongue... lots of knackebrød impersonators... no arguing Johhny Cash rules, though. Guess it all depends on the ratio of relatedness of languages. My dutch keeps me out of trouble mostly. The way I see scandinavian people online talk (snow not incorporated), can´t be that far off, sounds pretty natural to me. Try japanese...

"No, that was not Zathras, that was Zathras. There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. Slight differences in how you pronounce. Zathraas, Zathras, Zathras.. You are seeing now?"

I am half Indian, or Native American if you prefer......my friends call me Wolf, but I thought that nick might have negative conotations online. So, I decided I would used the TRUE name of my fathers tribe. The tribe is known as the Coushatta, but the actual name is Koasati, which means "Lost Tribe". If you want to find out how the tribe got that name read this.. http://www.lpb.org/programs/swappingstories/langley_koasati.html Now you understand why I chose a peacepipe as my icon....LOL /me

In the late 60´s, there was a Harvard profesor named Grimspoon who fought for the legalisation of marihuana or ´weed´ as it was known back then. I am not him, and any resemblence is purely incidental.
