Hey everyone, I think Armand has given us a snarky, smart ass answer. I don't think he means the above, he is just being funny. I like it, I think he has real potential as long as he don't get scared away. think about it, youth, energy, spunk, all those things that really make the world turn.

So thanks Armand, I look forward to seeing you at BRC. You need a playa name, what about Mohammad, or Jesus or do you have one? (maybe his name is really bill and Amand is his playa name...)
Armand was my great great great great great grandfather's name, Armand Eoghan(pronounced Owen) Lawless, who was part of the greatest viking crew this side of the earth in the middle ages. After my grandfather and his crew wreaked havoc amongst the western side of the earth, disobeyed all the common laws, torched every village they encountered along with raping and defiling their women, burning their crops, and destroying their sources of water, society stamped my grandfather and his crew with the last name of Lawless, because with my grandfather, laws were as meaningless as slaying an enemy viking.

And no, I don't have a playa name.
Interesting that your viking g g g g g grandfather's name origin is German/French (Armand) and Irish/Scott (Eoghan).

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

I'd have to dig out the geneology book to find the year, but waaaay back in my Danish line (mom's side), there's a Ferdinandson. Hence a Ferdinand. About the time part of the Spanish fleet shipwrecked up north, I think. I'd have to look up a bit of history too.
