If you told me that it was, 4quarter, I'd believe you- not knowing all of his songs, I'd believe a lot of stuff
No special meaning behind mine, just the first username I ever had given to me. The letters come from my names. I kept forgetting my usernames for things so I just use this and a few others now. The thing I like about the username is the large number of ways it can be pronounced by emphasizing different letters.

The hilarious thing is that with the Google search you've listed the second thing that comes up is wikipedia on Dana Lyons the real artist. Nevermind I wasn't really being all judgemental. Just getting a little sad that one of my favourite ever songs has been mis-credited.
Maybe I should change my name to Kittens in Choppers. Hmm might be more fun than 4quarter_cat...

Kittens WITH Choppers, perhaps?
Oh, btw, that was sauron256 who put the link up. I just googled the song and accepted what I was told
Yeah sorry my point wasn't anything other than the point out the number of pages/videos that list him as the artist. Funny how on Dana Lyons' Wikipedia article there a whole section dedicated to how the song is often misattributed to Weird Al and others.

Hmm, just doesn't feel right. It doesn't have enough fighting for bovine freedom. Or bad pun-tasticness about it.
Not much to tell I'm afraid. I needed a username not long after reading The Lord of the Rings for the first time. 256 is my lucky number, so I put them together and boom.
Been my username for many years so nothing Geelong specific I'm afraid.

256? I suppose you've been wondering why you still haven't managed to win Lotto?Not much to tell I'm afraid. I needed a username not long after reading The Lord of the Rings for the first time. 256 is my lucky number, so I put them together and boom.

Certainly not a typical number, but there's very little that's "typical" about me.256? I suppose you've been wondering why you still haven't managed to win Lotto?
And I work in IT, you'd be surprised how often the number comes up there!

It's a beautiful number- 2 to the power of 8Certainly not a typical number, but there's very little that's "typical" about me.

Or 2 squared = 4, squared = 16, squared =256
I just love square numbers and prime numbers

But it's not a magical number like 9.Certainly not a typical number, but there's very little that's "typical" about me.

Don't get me wrong, 256 is a great number in multiple ways, but it's not 9.
Nein.People don't appreciate the number 9 like they should.

Not at all 2 to the power of 8 is very logical choice.

Beaten to the punch by TC. I have degree in computer science, so I know my powers of 2 like kids know their 10 times tables.

I love numbers. Even bizarre numbers like dob's, phone numbers. Some people are oblivious to how special their dob is. How good is this one? 7/7/49. And no, it's not mine.I'm just a number numpty
