HarveyBoulevard Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 As I peruse the FOH Forum here, I always wonder how people picked their handle. Some are very straight forward and some I am sure have some great back stories. Feel free to share if you are so inclined. As far as my handle goes, HarveyBoulevard... My last name is Bullard. Several years ago I worked in an office where clients could not always remember my last name and would butcher it one way or another. Ballard, Bullock, Billiard, you name it, I have heard it. My favorite happened to be when one client I had met about six times comes in and asks the receptionist for "Mr. Boulevard". She (and the rest of the office) got a huge kick out of that one so that is what they called me for a while. My first name is not Harvey (no offense to anyone named Harvey...it is a fine name). I do happen to have a dog named Harley. As a young bastard of a puppy, he got into quite a bit of trouble. He kept telling me it was is alter ego named Harvey. So, whenever he got into a bit of a pickle, he always blamed it on Harvey Boulevard. I find myself yelling HARVEY BOULEVARD at least once a day as my pooch runs out the dog door to hide from the fury that is about to befall him. (I jest as I don't have the heart to give him a whooping)

Colt45 Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Mine was bestowed upon me by the knights who say Nee (Ni, Knee)...... Had I known, nine years ago, that I would've still been here, I'd probably have simply gone by my name. 9 years.....

Like adults who picked email addresses like '[email protected]'. Hindsight 20/20 etc...
