So Brothers of the Leaf, this post marks number 2000. To mark the occasion, I'm having a simple contest. It'll consist of one question, first correct answer takes the prize. The question is kinda two-part, so it'll be kinda tricky to get it right. Open to anyone on the Good Traders List (or have someone vouch for you). I have no idea what the prize will be quite yet.

And the question: What is the exact origin of my CCom handle/screen name?

I never thought I'd ever make 200, let alone 2000. It's been awesome being a part of this great brotherhood. I've made some pretty great friends through this place. Thank you guys for all being so welcoming and great!

    This is awesome. I was going to do the same contest for my 500th post. That said, I will guess that your first car was a POS and made a squeaking noise, so your friends started calling you skweekz.

    Congrats on 2k.

    I would guess it is an Earthbound reference. Strange as that might be.

    I am going to say it is from your dj days, I think it has to do with sounds associated with scratching records....and congrats on 2000 posts.

    for some reason, everytime I read your alias, I read "skeet." Then I think , hmmm well that's not very appropriate for a father holding a little baby girl. Anyways, now I know. congrats on the milestone brother! Hope to start getting to know you a bit more on the forums. Jiunn
