ok...I have been asked about my silly name and this is my reply below:

My alias on other poker sites was BuddyBanana but I chose BananaDog for this one but same thing really.
My Golden Retriever is called Buddy and when he was a puppy he started having seizures (he's grown out of them now) but at the time I heard just before a seizure their blood sugar drops and they get shakey, so at the first sign of him being more wierd than normal I used to feed him loads of bananas and honey to raise his blood sugar quick!
Anyhoo.....he became addicted to bananas hense the name 'Banana Dog / Buddy Banana' - he now also responds to the name Banana but I get funny looks if I stand in the middle of the field screaming "WHERE ARE YOU BANANA!!!!"

...so boys and girls "WHAT'S WITH THE NAME?" tell us the stories behind your usernames :o)
ps...NoseyBonk, I'm eargely waiting for your explanation since you bought this subject up!!! lol

    I wanted something really daft so I chose the name of the somewhat creepy (nowadays) character from 80's children's TV show 'Jigsaw'. I used to love that show but as a child I never realised just how creepy it was lol - a clip

    Mine is simply down to being a big fan of Kevin Smith's films, in particular the Jay & silent Bob ones. I suppose I should have really chosen Jay as my name is Jason but silent Bob is a bit more like me (in almost every way except he's got facial hair!)

    as my name is Laurie it sometimes gets shortened to Loz.
    when i was with my ex all i would normally hear is...
    Loz go....get this!!
    Loz go...get that!!
    Loz go...away!!
    so i thought that as i've heard it so often (no longer though. hehe). i would combine the two. therefore Lozgo!!

    My alias was a nickname given to me by the lads i worked with years ago when i used to be a guinea pig for a drug trials company in Leeds. They even made me a number plate for my office door!

    The 64 is just my year of birth.
