Serendipity maybe

[twyst976]

So I have had the handle of Twyst976 for a while, and the number 976 I borrowed from my brother a long time ago, easily over 10 years closer probably to 20 by now. So I had a child on 9/9 with my wife who was born on 7/7 and we were married on 6/9/7. Now the even odder thing is that the missing number in the sequence is 8... Sally's full birth date

My birthday is 6/6 just to add to the fun.

interesting that my number has more significance for you

I just use it because it's a premium-rate number... and I'm a premium rate douchebag.

I first registered my 'avatar' 976-Maxx in 6th grade (1992 or 1993) with a Multi User Dungeon (Legend of the Red Dragon) and changed to Chapel976 in 7th grade (1993-1994)

I believe you were Scuzzy976 prior to twyst976. That was when we had Xwing vs TIE Fighter, that came out in early 1997.

so, I'd say you've been on the name since around then.

I miss when the internet was underground... when I had to dial into local BBS services. Strangely, one of the guys I used to play LORD with in 6th grade is a friend of ours now (Matt Ziev - DoughBoy) in real life through Jessi's boyfriend... and a cop.

And to be honest... I think I used that number because of a Dead Milkmen 'song/bit' and they mention a guy calling 976-SHEEP

It's on Metaphysical Graffiti
