My teachers were mainly nuns so stfu and stop whining
Same here....until sixth grade when I transferred to public for financial reasons.

That is why Mrs Novak was the apex.

Was it the nuns that said you were cute as a button?

It was Monk because people IRL call me Monk. After the TV show. Then I found out that Tony Shalhoub is a huge Packer fan and the name lost its luster.

People tell me all the time I look like Michael J Fox, and they were some of my favorite movies growing up so I changed it to Marty McFly

First initial - D
First syllable of last name - Melt
Dave Bolland - 36

I started using DMelt at some point in middle school when some Internet forum suggested it as a username when the first one I'd tried was already taken. Been running with it ever since, but I usually change the number based on where I'm posting. I was DMelt80 on the CBMB and DMelt15 on the Blackhawks' official message board.

I see Urblock thanking a bunch of posts but skipping a certain very insightful one. Curious

Mine came from High School as I shaved my head for basketball season and the movie Higher Learning had just come out and the neo-nazi played by Michael Rapport's character was named Remy. So my teammates all started saying Dat's (that's) Remy or Remy dat haircut is ridiculous which eventually turned into Remydat.

Family from West Chicago? I just ask because I have a huge section of my family that are Kovak/Novaks.

Nope, none that are worth a damn anyways.

My sixth grade math teacher was Mrs Novak. I remember her only because she was the only hot teacher I ever had. It was all downhill after Mrs Novak.

Mrs Novak is a nice lady :)

I wakeboard, and the board I rode was 143 cm.
When I jumped in the water, I would tell myself "it is airtime".

I explore for gold (Au for those of you that know your atomic symbols). And one method of gold extraction is through the use of cyanide (CN, one carbon, one nitrogen).
Therefore,

Nah, I dont carry cyanide around in the field. We send our samples to our for cyanide analysis, or aqua regia, or lithium metaborate fusion, depending on the question we are trying to answer.

Gold Cyanide just sounds cooler and is more concise than "Gold lithium metaborate fusion with an inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometer finish."

And prospecting is what the old timers did. I use SCIENCE! :woot:

I started posting on the very first CBMB around 1998 or 99 as FredTaylorHB, because I liked Fred Taylor a ton and didn't put much thought in it. Then the board switched and I had to create a new user name. David Terrell was my favorite player so David Terrell was my username. Then the board switched again and my favorite player was Rex Grossman so I was Sexy Rexy. Then Rex sucked so for some reason I decided on Bearin' Down. I transferred here and used the same name.

There are two stories of Ommy. The first is he is the original Omelet from CMBM. The other is he is an imposter and took the name when the merger happened.

We want to know the truth Ommy? What are your origins?

There is one story of Omeletpants. Which one of those is the correct story is for you to try and deduce.

Ugh, people still prospect to this very day. Its perfectly fine to introduce science into it though so you're not just poking holes willy nilly. Such as prospecting with a geologist.

Hey! I'm a geologist (geochemist to be specific)!! But many of my co-workers are "prospectors". I am a much bigger fan of systematic exploration. This isnt the old days where you can trip on a mineralized outcrop (except for in 3rd world or dangerous countries).

And I would happily prospect with you if I had the opportunity. I value the knowledge a geologist brings to the table. My cousin and I have been wanting to go out prospecting and gold mining in California for the past few years. Its most definitely on the bucket list.

Ike is my nickname in real life.

Back when I joined my fist forum MaddenMania in 2002, there was a user named Ike. So I had used the number one as the letter I and stayed with that forever.

Why did they call you Monk? Was it to do with the obsessive–compulsive personality disorder?
