I used to be obsessed to no end with spam (back when I was like 14), and I used to skateboard, so I chose spamsk8r, and it stuck

A carry over handle from Ebay, which eludes to my occupation of auto technician for the past 23 years as a civilian and military occupation.

JonnyDuke-

Well, Duke is a nickname I got from a couple of girls I used to hang out with years ago as well as a name I used at Wonderland. Ahh, the good
old days... and well the Jonny part is my favorite cartoon character when I was a kid: Jonny Quest. Yeah, I actually remember when it first
showed up on TV, back in the day before cable was everywhere.

Mine is kinda long too... Back in the fall of '93, I was first introduced to the internet. Most of my friends were either away at college or just going to college and they all started playing a particular MUD (Multi User Dungeon) called Northern Crossroads. Being this was way before instant messaging and I didn't know about IRC, I joined this mud so I could talk to my friends. I started a character named Thing that was loosely based on one of my most favorite super heroes, Thing from the Fantastic Four. I spent a good year or so on that MUD and later achieved "god" status. I noticed a few of the other gods had Lord or Lady in their title so that people would know they were not standard players. So, I added it to mine. Besides, I figured that no one would be using that name on the net (especially since what I wanted to use, foose, was taken) so I started using it for everything. So far, I haven't came upon another LordThing.

My name is Ed....

I wasn't always the sharpest tool in the shed at school... so every time I screwed something up or said something silly my friends would say "Yup, thats specialed alright"... I thought it was funny so I adopted it as a screen name.

Got mine from Magic the Gathering card game. The mythological basilisk is a gorgon (like Medussa). I was dubbed the Basilisk 'cause I was always st*ned. Why '4:20?'...you gotta do it sometime.

Mine comes from the Dream Theater DVD: Metropolis 2000: Scenes From New York

I got this DVD about the time I joined the forum and couldn't stop watching it. Still can't stop...

Silly 0sully was looking for euphemisms for "whore" to use in a submission for a writing contest. Thesaurus.com was rather helpful when I went hunting for cute little words and popped up "libertine". Here's what dictionary.com had to say about it:

lib·er·tine n.
1. One who acts without moral restraint; a dissolute person.
2. One who defies established religious precepts; a freethinker.

It just stuck.
