It's listed back a long way, and my guess the reason Maple told you guys to come here for his name is that it is listed here, and well, if you want to know, you'll just have to backreadd. Nothing wrong with that. Also tells you so much about so many others. Try it sometime. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by icecreamman from Thursday, June 18, 2009 9:06:15 PM)

....... I am icecreamman becuase I was in a band a couple of years ago, and well, I wore a Blue and orange stripped shirt with orange shorts. The guitarist said I look like a push up (a orange creme Ice Cream thingy ), and called me the Ice cream Man. By the way Ice Cream Man is my favorite Van Halen song.

I was nicknamed the Metal Goddess back in the mid '80s by my brother and his friends. My parents were out of the house and I had Priest cranked up as loud as it could go and I was singing along. My brother and his friends could hear me around the block!! They were quite impressed and dubbed me "The Metal Goddess" since I'm such a HUGE fan of Rob's. As for Hot Rockin' - it's to be able to tell MG and me apart and because I WANNA GO, I WANNA GO, I WANNA GO....... HOT ROCKIN'

yes...I know what you meant...and I'm not saying you insulted him...I'm talking about us all...that's why I didn't quote your message...and I'm not trying to deffend him (for those who think I'd do it)...I just say that in the way he doesn't attack any of us we shouldn't because otherwise we become what we are criticizing...and I know he deserves what he gets for having such a nickname...but as u said...we should be tolerant until the top is reached

...No one's getting on Guido in a bad way paorcamp...and I don't think I insulted the racist in any way...but just by giving yourself the name (Racist) invites ridicule...it is a negative reference and desrves what it gets...if someone is gonna put themself out there like that, then they should be ready for the stigma (good or bad) that comes with it...and NO, I don't care why he thinks the way he does...and I'll be tolerant until he becomes...how should I say this...becomes 'vocal' in promoting his views...

mmm...Maybe I'm wrong about this but I see guido is just being curious...he's on his right...he's just trying to learn something new...maybe the points of view and the way the racist guy thinks...we are not being fair with them so just let guido ask and the other guy answer....and that's it...even if the guy is being honest or not we all can learn something new....because if he is being honest we can try to get an idea of the way he sees things before we insult him....but if he isn't, then we can see that there's a person with some problems...maybe he was hurt in the past and now is trying to hide in a racist shadow...
