Old Hippie Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 Actually, this reminds me of an old joke...a bunch of Native American kids were telling how they got their names, "well, when I was born a great thunder was heard, so I am called loud thunder" "well, when I was born, a great bolt of lightening was seen across the sky, so I am called great lightening!" "well, my father saw a great bear when I was born so I am called great bear"...then they all look at this other kid and say "...so, Damn that broken rubber, how did you get your name...?"

Old Hippie Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 Oh, to answer the question, I was in a salon on soi 4 way back when, getting a haircut from my then girlfriend, and some guy from OZ said "about time mate, you look like an old hippie..." and well, I sort of am...so it stuck!

Guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 I took my name after my favourite Bob Dylan album - Planetwaves (1974)- Just to bore you all a little further there is a song on that album called Hazel. One of the lines of that song goes "Hazel dirty blonde hair - I would be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere" - Well at the time I had a girlfriend called Hazel and she had dirty blonde hair and I was ashamed to be seen with her anywhere - spooky huh?

Guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 Not wanting to talk politics but this how I became a zoot . I was camping outside a certain consulate consulate-protesting during the Gulf War , many years ago now . A hippie chick who was there & your typical dippy hippie insisted that I was the spitting image of zoot the blue saxaphone player fromm the Muppet Show . It stuck big time . It alos fits in nicely with my interest in all things '60's , mod , scooters etc etc . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 I logged onto Delphi which made me register a name and as I was just randomly surfing I did not put any effort into it (as if no one could guess!). After I accidently found this message board and had used the David_66_UK board name a few times I found I got strangely attached to it Although it is now "retired" it is has been immortalised(!) in cement outside the Suzy & Crazy Bar in Clinton Plaza....... Thankyou Mr_Heineken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 Jaganath is the little smileyface god on the hare krishna stickers. He is also the venerated deity at the jagannatha temple in Puri, India, a place where I discovered the true joys of the oriental hippie trail. As for the 69, well its kind of a favourite position, and it sounds better that Jaganath the assfucker! Cheers Jaga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 Great thread, have always wondered about the board names My "handle" is simple, I tried explaing what my friends and I do(and why we were showing up at their Ago go so often ) to a few of the girls. They said "ahh.... nak bin, nak bin... you come Pattaya too much". That's pretty much it Nakbin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 24, 2002 Report Share Posted February 24, 2002 From the Bob Marley song. Incidentally, I know that SLF did a cover of it, but was the original actually Bob's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
