Topic: Nickname Poll Posted: October 10 2005 at 09:53 |
Hello there,
What does your nickname mean?
Mine, Pr@gmatic is meant to be read in both ways "pragmatic" and "progmatic".
Meaning Of Pragmatic
Pronunciation: prag'matik Definition: [adj] concerned with practical matters; "a matter-of-fact (or pragmatic) approach to the problem"; "a matter-of-fact account of the trip" [adj] guided by practical experience and observation rather than theory; "a hardheaded appraisal of our position"; "a hard-nosed labor leader"; "completely practical in his approach to business"; "not ideology but pragmatic politics" [adj] of or concerning the theory of pragmatism
Meaning Of Progmatic
I like to do things in a progressive way. 
That's all.
What about your nickname?...

Mine is a nickname a friend gave me when we used to play football together (as in Ron "Chopper" Harris).
I think he was being sarcastic as I rarely got near enough to anyone to foul them.

I own a stuffed cat called Dale.  I've made three horror movies called Dalezilla I, II and III (currently working on Dalezilla IV). Dale is the main character in the movies. So that's where my nickname comes from  .

Mine came partly from an Enchant song called "Progtology" but also from my wife.
Example...."Hey Progtologist,turn off the music and come to dinner!!!!!"

finest band in the avant-garde today (this REALLY means something to me)
