My user name comes from a combination of a few things:
Cosmo - My old intercom name in high school because there were two Mikes and we were all geeks with our "code names" anyway. Originally derived from Cosmo on the movie Sneakers. My friend was Bishop, and I figured Cosmo would be an appropriate name for me.
Nut - Added to the end of "Cosmo" when "Cosmo" was already being used here. It just makes the username sound like Cosmonaut, a Russian astronaut (although nothing about me is Russian). I just thought it kind of sounded cool.
I should add, I'm not a big Jerky Boys fan, really. If I had known how actively I'd be posting here, and for how long, I might have thought a little more about a better nickname.
Ironically, when I first "appeared" here, many people thought I was a hot chick, like "sizzle chest" meant "hot breasts" or something.

So there you go.
Jamie how did you change your username? I want to do that so my email/AIM/handle are all consistent...
<strong>Pretty obvious here.
