As a kid my favorite comic was Sergeant Rock. When I was deployed overseas in 2000 My only experience with the internet was at work which was limited to official business. Everyone was opening MSN Hotmail accounts as an easy way to communicate with family. I had no home computer but my wife had access to a computer at work and an email address. After discovering sgtrock 1,2,3,4 was already taken I just went to 21. Success! Although the old Hotmail account is long gone I have kept the user name. Bye the way, I was a SGT.

Donathan, thanks for letting us know.  So, how many more usernames do you have already registered on CIH?  Inquiring minds need to know.

Thank you! My 7 months in the former Yugoslavia and Hungary was actually enjoyable. Combat zone with zero combat. Just the way I like it!

Will do.  As for sharing, thanks for the totally hysterically funny skit.  I'm thinking the Substitute Teacher would call me Pee-Achez Blow Some.  LOL

^^ Keegan Key cracks me up.  I loved his gym coach character, which was similar to the substitute teacher, when he was on Mad TV LOL

I see the "Thang" made a reappearance over the holiday peachblossom called him out, yet the post she quoted is nowhere to be found.  Looks like it was another short stay for him LOL

My name just sorta came to me, with my birthday tagged on the end.   Actually it's semi-inspired by In the Mouth of Madness with one of my all time favorite movie quotes: "Sane and insane could easily switch places - if the insane were to become the majority you would find yourself locked in a padded cell wondering, 'What happened to the world?' "
"Think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of 'em are stupider than that." - George Carlin
