i have been using the same old user name since way back in 1997
when i created my first email account with yahoo (is still working)

i tried my name did not get it
tried the name of everybody in my family but did not get it

so i merged my name with my sis's (shweta)

to get this username.......
its unique
and i have never found any conflict with this username in any of the sites
so i use it everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sir roy keane - the name says it all,

me took to united after 98 world cup courtesy king david, but my favourite player of all time, undoubtedly has to be roy.

he is one of the reasons why united is where it is right now.

there's only one keano!

PS- we'll keep the red flag flyin high, cos man utd will never die!

Ah well..Choices were Phantom, Mandrake, Jughead...

Had ruled out Chacha Chaudhary, Pran, Asterix ...

Phantom added an element of supernatural..It was ...pagal

Rahul_Almighty: Rahul is obvious, but Almighty makes it special. My frnds used to call me god (I was good in some subjects)... so Almighty.

Also, I liked Bruce Almighty very much, so.... Rahul Almighty :wink:


Cheer$,

SIMPLE LOGIC.................... wanted to choose either CLANDESTINE or SURREPTITIOUS.......... first heard about both the words on "WORD POWER MADE EASY".......then got obsessed with those words after listening to them in GRE,CAT coaching classes........... and when i came to know about PAGALGUY i decided SURREPTITIOUS is here to stay.. ha:

ID : AlpeshChaudhari

Reason :
As the population of the world is more than 6 billion, some people eons ago decided to call each other by some name.
And, after my birth on 03-06-1986 my parents (it seems, who believed on those people mentioned above) decided on that ID.....err........name.

And, I like to flaunt my name
