Who, me? I told you I was from the northernmost part of Sweden, right? :p

So you mean you´re all pretty much like those people in that beer comercial? You know, "Jag vet inte varför de gillar Norrland, men jag antar att de vill vara sig själva för en stund"?

Pfft. Commercial crap sterotypes :mad:
(Damn southerners...)
No, I was just being sarcastic about the general simple-minded attitude :rolleyes:
...but it's true; I'd get the weirdest spellings of my last name for some reason. Maybe it's because so many people up there really have no proper language; they speak neither Swedish nor Finnish, but rather a horrible mix of the two and can't seem to get anything right. Throw some Sami into the mix and it's all set for confusion...

I usually go by the name of Kosh on other forums - on IRC I have a habit of giving short replies or answering questions with comments that appear to be gibberish or not connected with the subject, even though they are. Some of my associates said I sometimes sound like Kosh from the B5 TV series, so the name stuck.
When I came to register at TTLG, Kosh had been taken so I went for something else that describes me quite well - I watch things. I don`t mean things like TV (I haven`t watched TV for more than an hour in the last 6 months) but things in general - people, sociopolitical trends, technological advances, the growth of extelligence.. An interesting and sometimes disturbing activity..... <IMG SRC="wot.gif" border="0">

I am Gray. It's an old nick I used while playing Ultima Underworld, ages and ages ago, that I resurrected for the forums. It seemed appropriate enough.
Why Gray? Well... I dunno... I like gray (grey?) as a colour... and it sounded sort of old-ish... :o

Firstly, the (19)77 is my birth year because I couldn't just have "bujin".
"bujin" is Japanese romaji (hence the lowercase) and was taken from the martial art that I use to participate in (called Bujinkan, meaning "House of the divinely inspired warrior"). Drop the 'kan' (house) bit, and it means "Divine Warrior". Hope that's cleared that one up! :)

Which is actaully based on a resturant in Chicago called "Billygoats" and is located on lower-Wakker, under the road.
Middle aged man here in the state of Kentucky, US. I used to be sysadmin for our company's IBM mainframes. Boy, talk about resillant. Those babies are pretty much indestructable (not mvs, vm, etc, just the low level os). One little bitty command causes the whole $10million beast to come to a screeching halt: z eod (End Of Day).

It concerned a greasy spoon run by immigrants with a poor command of English, which was mostly limited to shouts of "No Coke, Pepsi!" and "Chee'burger, Chee'burger, Chee'burger, Hey!"
Actually I enjoy Coke
and Pepsi. Whatever ya got.

It's sort of stupid, but it's what brought me to the whole online thing :D
1. The old SNES RPG game, Earthbound, Mr. Saturn.
2. The upcoming (now past) millenium.
Mr. Saturn - Mr. + y2k - y. Saturn2K.
But for some stuff I use "Tookay".
