Creating your user name requires some heavy thought!


I was looking at the back of a dollar bill which said 'In god we trust'.


So I was thinking 'The Chemical Brothers We Trust' but sounded lame, so I went with condensed version 'inchemwetrust'

In seventh grade when I was coming up with a handle, I saw Alice in Wonderland on the shelf. I thought The Mad Hatter would be cool, but too obvious. I needed something a bit sillier, and so TheMadPooter was born.


AIM only let me use 10 characters, therefore it became MadPooter.

I had been lurking here for quite some time but decided to speak up shortly after the WATN revamp. I wanted something relevant to the time of my joining, and a merging of Saturate and EBW8 was too perfect to go unused.


I have since created a gmail account with this name and also use it on other sites.

Bosco comes from an old nickname that was given to me when I was young. I drank a lot of Bosco.

Not obvious enough? Well, there was a guy, long long time ago. That guy subdued a folk called the Gauls - and got his ass kicked by Asterix and Obelix: Caesar. Not the salad! And not that dog food iggy :lol:
