Zaikesman's Username Pronunciation Field Guide

OK, here's the deal: It's pronounced "Zikes'mn", not "Zakes-man" (accent on the first syllable with a long "i" and silent "a", the second syllable with a schwa "a"). Preferred 'nick-username' is Zaikes (rhymes with 'yikes').

Anybody else out there with a username having ambiguous/obscure correct pronunciation (you know who you are), here's your big chance to set us all straight!

(And the rest of you stop snickering :-)

Sean, famous words of the late Jack Benny( who, by the way, was a virtuoso violinist, even though he made fun of the instrument when he had it on stage). I too am 39 and holding.

Hey Sean, glad to see you around! You had us a bit worried a while ago when you announced your last post in some obscure thread.

Sherod: Unlike Jack Benny though, i REALLY am 39. At least that's how many candles they put on my cake last year. Or was that this year??? : )

Uncle Jeff: Thanks for the kind words. Regardless of how much i disagree with some of the policies on Agon, i enjoy the people and atmosphere of this forum the most out of any that i visit. I also had to take a dose of my own medicine. As i've stated to others here before, this is a privately owned and operated forum. If someone doesn't like the way things are being done, they can either deal with it or leave. I'll just say that this place is addictive enough to make you want to overlook the side-effects : ) Sean

Dekay/DeKay is pronounced "DK" (first/last initials), like "OK".

Being that I'm rich, famous and extremely sexy I do not feel comfortable disclosing my full name (prefer to be treated like just a regular person when on the WWW).

For those interested:

"Slappy" is really Harvy Kietel in true life, though I suppose that most here have already figured this out.
