What's In A Name: The New Twist

I was recently asked about the genesis of my screen name by Lovebabz. I directed her to my prior post in answer. She seemed a bit unsatisfied with the real boring explanation. So I challenged her to come up with a feasible reasoning behind the name. And what the hey, just for fun, I am challenging you too!

So what would you come up with for the story behind The Second Sixty-Eight?

All stories are welcome and the best explanation wins! What I am not certain, but you still win!

okay we are gonna try this again dammit, i hate this damn wireless card

like i was saying before when i was rudely interrupted

i was saying that maybe you like to do it in the 68 position cause you didnt want to do it in the 69

yeah yeah i know i have nasty mind,lol


always wanted to know the meaning behind your name guess i am gonna find out

The Second Sixty-Eight said...

Okay. But how do YOU define the 68 position?

Rashan Jamal said...

Ummm...that is something that I was wondering too...

You were born in February of 1968? I'ont know!

The Pew View said...

Well lets see baby. You owed somebody $1.36 and you only paid 68cents so they beat yo ass (forgive me Lawd) and said "Imma keep whooping that ass (forgive me Lawd) until I get that second 68 up out of you!"

Did I win Baby? Take care now.

You were named after your father whose nickname was 68. So you are the second 68.

LadyLee said...

I think, from some picture you had up, that it was 3 68's. So you were the second one born in 1968, and ya'll are all cousins or something.

Okay, I think I'm waaay out in left field. HUMPH!!

Lady Lee and Rashan gave my responses. Either the seond month in the year 1968 or the second child in your family born in 1968.

Dreamy said...

that 68, can be taken anyway you want it to be taken

and some of them other bloggers are cheating

tell them t step back

and where is that tagg?????

hard head makes soft behinds, now dont make me.

Freaky Deaky said...

Your original explanation is good enough for me. Who am I tell you the story behind your name? LOL

The Addict said...

I kind of agree with Ladylee...it might be a family thing. Or it could be something like a fraternity thing-as in a line name that identifies you with another person in that position at one time.

No? Am I way off?

The Addict said...

Or...it could be like the first 68 of something. As in "the first 68 times we tried, we messed up, but the second time, #68 was a winner!"

No?

Beana said...

@ Rahsan - Nope! March!

@ Ruthie Ann - That most certainly was a winner! Still ain't figured out a prize though...

@ Southern - I was indeed named after my father. But his nicknames are Ghost and Wimpy Jr. So I inherited Wimpy the 3rd. HamBURger! He was given Ghost because he would raise up off the scene so fast it was like a...

@ Ladylee - Not so way off in left field. Though not completely accurate. Though there were only three in the picture, there are six total! Six being the blogger who inspired me to start this madness! Wasn't an exciting work of fiction, but your attention to my details is rather deep! You win the Stalkerazzi award! (which is basically a hug...)

@ Laughing808 - Looks like you came in second for the Stalkerazzi award!

@ Dreamy - Aw dang! You almost had it locked up! But leaving it to my imagination leaves me wondering what you imagine. And you know I got a dirty mind right?
Then again, I may have to award a second winner...

@ Freaky - Because I imagine you are good at it!

@ The Addict - Um... Way off on which of the TWO answers?

@ The Addict - Depends on what was tried 68 times!

@ J - Wow! I need a vacation like that! You probably know the answer because you been around for a minute! And don't burn out no synapses trying to think of the answer! I DID link to the original post...

Ima roll with born on the second day in 1968????

The Second Sixty-Eight said...

I might have to add that to my list of fiction!
