William Shakespear said...well in Juliet's voice, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

This got me thinking about all the different names we have and what they mean. My name is WARLOCK TRIVECTION FALKEN. Initials: what the heck...and no that was unintentional. My name has much more meaning that what its acronym implies.

In my existence as a self diagnosed mad man, I have become quite the creative person. I am apart of some very off the wall cartoons, I play most instruments you do not blow in, and I have developed skills in creation beyond the paint brush that has transferred between all of the things i do...Period. Everything I own or create must serve as some type of
[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Arial, Liberation Sans, FreeSans, sans-serif]aesthetic piece of art as well. Art is an insanely vague word, almost as vague and loosely used as the word anemone.

The name comes from a fictional place on Youtube Called Des Melonios, Iowa. LED FALKEN produces visions of the locals they have caught on tape, which so happen to be cartoon people. It is an interpretation of where I really live, which is a need to know thing. :) The town has a circus that performs once a year and a K Mart. The people have driven themselves bored beyond return and the culture is Meth. Sad, but true. It has spawned the creation of rage, anguish, and more importantly COMEDY. Warlock Trivection Falken is the Partner C.E.O. of The whole Falken Estate along with Xtopher Falken. Together they produce the Falken Showcase. I Use what the heck as a representation of the project and because it is just a cool name. Sounds like a MAgical Microwave that Flies, does it not?

Aside from that, I live to keep all things fun and am Striving to STAY OUT OF A FACTORY! On the serious side of my mind I am working on building a coral farm that I fund solely off my tank now, trading, selling, saving, buying, selling, trading, until I have enough things to produce Stock for surrounding LFSs and eventually become a supplier to wholesalers. There is a ton of corn here, so I can heat the tanks with that HAHAHA...NO really, we need less corn. 20 minutes of corn just to get to Rally's? Thats stupid. I hate Nebraska for the same reason + Tornadoes.

SO, My wonder is what YOUR NAMES MEAN??? Anyone have any crazy stories why the picked their name? Are any of your names the password to your atm? Did your name come from a karate movie? Can I have some?

Well I was a body builder/ power lifter. At one time, I benched 505 and squatted 505. Also could dead lift 520. I was always big E. Big Eric. I'm 6'4" and weighed 285 with a 32" waist. I had a friend that was less than 5'2 and he was named Eric thus making him little E. Then we had a friend that was 5'10" and he was medium E.

Now, being a stay at home dad have found building things is a nice temporary income. I build anything. I have built bridges for cars, bridges for G scale trains (which was bought on eBay by a Saudi royal) and anything else you can think of. I build anything anyone wants built. So my friends now call me build it bigger. Which goes back to bige. Funny how my nick name stuck with me. And still stands true.

E. Will PUMP YOU UP! You gotta get a totem pole picture of the 3 E's haha. I bet water changes for you would be just lifting your tank and pouring in the sink?
 
And there was new found respect for bige.... lol :)

To get deeper, where did the alphabet come from, the words we speak and type, all the different things on this planet, how did all of this truly start? Nobody really knows, a lot of guesses but everythings a theory until its proven, so they say..
 
Good point sps. I was just thinking about how our language works...its anti-newtonian for sure.
Lead me to the lead that you led me to yesterday. Lead (leed) and lead (led) are pronounced purely by context...which led me to insanity early on. Gh, kn, pt, gh....all pointless to me. What gets me even more is how little we (english speaking people) have so little words and letters in comparison to the amazing asian language. At the same time I feel I would get confused trying to learn them all. Living in japan as an airforce kid was surely an amazing experience...pre-preschool english skills around a japanese language was like the craziest thing, especially when I saw a kappa monster for the first time...wow...but I am not a languatition, nor know the proper name for one.

I know for a fact that the forst words were, "Huh?" Which was more pronounced than the previous grunt, "ugh."
The question mark...in my own theory...was created because of this: someone pre-words was trying to communicate curiousity. They based the swirley-johansen shape off the eyebrow raise of utter confusion. Where'd you get that milk?

Well, honestly nobody really knows 100% because well, we weren't there :) No offense or anything, but I need absolutely no doubts, and unfortunately you have a lot of people on the fence. I would imagine you are extremely close though, anythings possible! Look at all the hieroglyphics and "caveman" paintings of rockets and spaceships. Don't think that happened by accident. And that was thousands of years ago. What really happened? Not sure if we will ever know. Just another mystery to life as to why we are here and how everything came to be. Really spooky story. Was visiting a good buddies grandma that was on her death bed, we all knew it was just a matter of time. She was in the hospital for 3 or so months, not getting any better. She woke up one day out of the blue on a Thursday....... The words she had to say next will be with me forever and ever, will never forget it and am getting goose bumps remembering the details. She said she had an appointment to go to on Monday at 2:30 to see someone, that was the last she had said and went back to rest. Monday came, and she was pronounced dead at exactly 2:37 p.m... Will never be able to explain it nor make sense of it but will be with me for the rest of my life.. There are things that happen in each of our lives that just do not make sense nor can they be explained, and honestly I think they are meant to be that way. Why? Absolutely no idea, another mystery to what life is and has to behold for us to uncover or discover. Everybody experiences it differently, some better than others unfortunately.
 
lol, more like a 150, 75, 55, 55sump, 2x10, and an 8 (all salty) haha. I have 1 day to move all of it 8 blocks. :/ I think i will change my name to BigWTF after that. I did just buy a 20ft hose for pumping water outside so I dont have to carry it as far to the truck.

the first sentence was..."Crap, a Wooly mammoth just enrolled in the bake off competition."
 
I don't have any crazy cool story like you do, but mine's pretty simple.

EmilyXLC

Emily is obviously my name.
X is because I'm a huggy type of person.
LC is what my old coworkers used to call me when they couldn't pronounce my last name. (There were both an L & C in it, of course)
 
I suppose I should update this since my name is no longer w.t.falken.

Seymour Duncan: a guitar pickup company. I also like Duncan corals and the Simpsons. :)

Not much back story to it now but at least it's not Steve. No offense Steves. All of you. Besides Steve is short for "I can do that."
