I don't really have a good answer.  I guess I just like the letter Q.  It looks kinda wierd and just seems mysterious.  It can never stand alone; always dependent on the U.  And most states don't use Q (or I or O) on their license plates.  By the way, I'm a license plate collector, so perhaps that explains my attention to such things.

A more interesting one would be "NoPlate". Someone used that in Calif and got a large amount of parking tickets because sometimes officers wrote "NoPlate" on the ticket. lol He fought them in court and they changed the way officers wrote it to NoTag or something like that and the same thing happened again. LOL What a mess.

As for my name "States Rights" its obvious. I stand for States Rights. The Federal Govt is out of control in its authority. The Southern States had the principles of the correct way this govt should be run in the CS Constitution. When I get a link I'll post it I promise.  One example is the line item veto.


(This post regarding the CSA does not mean I stand for or promote slavery. Slavery was not the leading cause of the war, this argument is worn out and has been disproven. The war was over High Tarriffs on the South and the continual abuse of Southern States by the North. I am not a racist so please do not try to paint me as one.)

What does your username mean?

Mine is: Miamiu=University of Miami Hurricanes, 1027=birthday of October 27th.

how about you?

nifty.  I figured out the Miami University part, but not the number.  (you're really hoping jmfcst posts here, aren't you?)   Ever go into a restaurant where they're busy and they have to take your name and make you wait for a while?  Or order a pizza?  Or anything else?  They always want a name.  Years ago I started giving the name Angus McCloud, after a dear fellow postdoctoral research associate who passed away mysteriously in the cold Boston winter night a few years ago.  "Okay, sir, tonight we have about a a 20-minute wait at Madam Wang's House of Stir-Fried Pork & Slow Handjob, would you care to give us your name and have a seat?"   "Okay, that's Angus McCloud.  I'll just step outside and take a hit off this joint then by the time I get back my table will be ready?"   "Okay Angus, we'll call you when it's ready."

But liberty doesn't deliver you from evil (assuming such a thing exists), in fact, sometime liberty allows you to move toward it.  Liberty isn't deliverance.

Better Red Than Dead is a common leftist slogan in retaliation to "Better Dead Than Red"

This Machine Kills Fascists is something Woody Guthrie once wrote on his guitar.

Nym was my nickname in high school (short for my last name, Nyman).

Cool. That's a Swedish name.

I like the Tsongas sig Lidaker!
Tsongas was the first political candidate I ever really supported (when I was 12)...I had that bumper sticker on my bedroom wall for years.

He was also one of the few viable presidential candidates not to resort to the standard red-white-and-blue logo.

carter was another.  His were green and white, same as my high-school mascot's colors.  

Also, better Red than dead, I have to admit that it's a very clever name.  But I really think you're far from Red.  I think you're more pink than red.  Even your sig says you're a noam chomsky fan.

I was also 12 back in 1992, but I wasn't aware of Paul Tsongas at the time. I vaguely remember Bill Clinton winning that election and my social democratic junior high school teacher telling the class that independent candidate Ross Perot was "close to a nazi", which led me to believe that he was ultra right-wing. He also said that the republican party in America was "so blue they're almost black" (red stands for left, blue for right in Sweden). Strange. That's the kind of indoctrination you have to endure if you grow up in a small community as I did where everyone are social democrats in their soul from the day they're born.

Thanks for the compliment. Tsongas was genuine. I guess what gave him the courage to stand up for what he believed in even when it was unpopular was his struggle with cancer. Seems like you need a big character-shaping event to happen in your life to be able to stay above partisan politics. John McCain is another example (five years as POW).
