Well, ojo (pronounced OH-HO) is Spanish for eye. (singular) I only have one. I live in Arizona and had many Latino friends; one night while boozing it up, my buddy was calling my name, but I was out of it or not paying attention. He then called me ojo and it stuck. 223 is my birthday and 2 was my HS number.

Gow are the first three letters to my last name. ND for Notre Dame (of course). And 11 my favorite number. It was also the number my cousin wore for softball until she passed away when she was 12 and I was 11. I have always worn it or used in since.

Sorry choo choo. I can't help it:

YouTube - C'mon N' Ride It (The Train) - Jay Ski (Greatest Hits)

<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/B-DpRcxK_N8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>


Anyway, just before I started posting on this site, I was in the process of losing my twig and berries due to some tough situations which I kinew were only going to get tougher. I got a kick out of the NDinLA/NDMontana debates, TMQ10's music, GoIrish!!!, Best47, tko, etc...

The Bambi avatar was given to me by another poster and I just went with it. I think ACamp and SoCaldomer were mods at the time. Too much fun and so many good posters on this site.

But I no longer have testicles. I managed to find them and store them in the refrigerator.

I live in South Carolina and I am a huge Notre Dame fan. When I was a kid my dad worked construction and we moved all over the USA. No matter where we moved to Lindsay Nelson was on the tv with his weekly Notre Dame Highlights show. That was one of the only constant things in my childhood. And I grew up an Irish fan.

Well, I kinda thought it'd be easy for you all to figure out I was a girl when I first got here, but apparently yall thought I was a "dude" with a fruity name. :)

So k1ssme1m1r1sh means just that. Kiss me. I'm irish. Everyone loves an Irish girl! ha.

based on the shirt from cracked.com, there i said it. For a time during his recruitment my name was GreatGolson, its a chapter of my life id rather not speak about. However whoever becomes the next starting qb after dayne will be my new name, with a clever twist using the first letter of their name "RockinRees, HolyHendrix, ect. Although i personally am hoping for GreatGunner :)

It's my second (I have four [five if you count my saint name from when I was confirmed] names, I go by my first middle name which would be the second name) and last name. Minus a common space between the two names.

Also my PS3 gamertag thing.

Just keeping things simple ... the Caterpillar dealer I was working for had just put together 2 Large Mining shovels and I was the on call mechanic that got a phone call every time one of the machines farted. When I arrived on the job sites some of the people would kid and say the Shovel Doctor is in the house and it stuck. I have been using that name on the boards ever since.

Old nickname from the Navy.

Like many of you, it's a combination of my first initial and a variation on my last name.

Obviously part of the reason is because I think Golden Tate is the greatest human being ever created. The other reason was that during his breakout sophomore season, a group formed on Facebook that started selling tshirts that said across the front Golden is Thy Tate, and the back of the shirt had a play written out with his number running a GO route.

Did I mention that I think Golden Tate is the greatest human being ever created?

So I was at a Rainbow Gathering in East Texas in the early 90's.. yup I'm a hippie. I was at A camp, for those of you who think that's just a grumpy old IE user name it's also the name of the camp at Rainbow Gatherings that allow alcohol. They're the road pirates and old alcoholics that mind the gate.

So, Chad the Namegiver who, as his handle suggests, gives out hippie names to all, overheard my story that when I played high school football my head was too big to fit any of the helmets they had so they were forced to order one... the equipment manager said he hadn't ordered that size since he worked in the NFL.

Chad the Namegiver then called me Jarhead and said that that would be my moniker from here on out... I objected because obviously that's the nickname for Marines, and for the first time in recorded hippie history Chad changed his mind and made it 'Jughed.' (spelling changed because I think it looks funnier/cooler.)

It's perfect because my last name is Jones and I really like hamburgers.

Took the J from the first initial of my first name, the Cold from the first part of of last name & my favorite number of 9 to get jcold9.

I'm changing it to GainesvilleIrish when I get enough cash though, ha.

TheGame = short for the reason we are all here:

ForLoveOfTheGame

'09 = Graduation year

Put it all together and you get... TheGame'09.

NOT to be confused with Jayceon Terrell Taylor, the Cider Block Piru.
