  In short, my nick derives from a typo of the German(!) word "also" => alos.
  Add some letters to make it sound like a name => alos-so.

  Meet me and I'm gonna tell the whole story. There's nice golf courses around,
  and very good beer.

  First initial, last name spelled backwards, numbers from the very first email account I had with Earthlink back in the '90s.

  With such a common last name there's very little competition for accounts if you spell it backwards.

  Golly Courtney, that is special to me and my ears. As far as I can recall, you are the only other person (other than my Sis) I've ever known that shares the same BD ! My sister Melissa and I always do something nutty together on the 1st....we take turns as hostess and surprise each other....although I don't know how her mood will be this year.... her BD is 1-1- 76 ;-}

  Weeeellllll, because I'm really buff and didn't want to appear conceited ....just look at my avatar!

  LOL

  actually I'm not fat, wellll, not at the time anyway lol, when my Grand daughter was a little sh!t I slowed down working and spent more time with the family, I had put on a little roll around the mid section and one day she said "Grandpa how come your getting fat"....

  I said "thanks, now everyone will call me fat".. then threw her out of my house and banned her for life,

  A few weeks later I was at her home, her being banned from mine and all, she introduced me to some of her little friends and said "Thats my Grandma XXXX, and that's my Grandpa, you can just call him fatdan 'cause he is getting fat"...

  The 3 little princesses all said "HI Grandpa fatdan", and they all went about their business...

  I also used to own a piece of a bar called "Fat Harry's", and another called "Fatboys", the major shareholder named it even though no one was either fat, boys, or named Harry....

  Around that same time I registered here in 2008, and fatdan was the 1st thing that came to mind! My grand daughter is now about to turn 14 in 3 days, and still banned from this home!
