I’m bored and in somewhat of a chit chatty mood. So I thought I’d create a thread, in the spirit of old ATS, to get to know one another better.
As I’m fully aware, my monicker is somewhat cryptic. It was actually a nickname that was given to me, a very long time ago. As I’ve mentioned before, I live in Sedona. Due to that, I have a serious disdain for narcissists giving themselves ‘spiritual’ names. You are who you are — and nicknames should be bestowed, not self professed.
So here is how I got my name: I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness. When I was 16, I started working on a commercial floor covering crew. The entire crew of 15 guys were all Jehovah’s Witnesses. The majority of us were 16- 40 years old. One of the crew, just so happened to be an ex LA gangster (Daniel Ramirez), that partook in the Rodney King riots, back in 1991. He told me many stories. About how he looted Circuit City — AND killed two people. Yes, he had the tear drop tattoos under his eye.
More background, I am the only person with my full name in the entire world. My first name was made up by my parents. It starts with a K. My middle name also starts with a K. THANK GAWD my last name does NOT start with a K — it is a C (very close) and is an eclectic Italian name.
SO, because of me being me, this ex Mexican gangster from LA — gave me the name K K Loco. Due to the fact that I ALWAYS said what was on my mind. You know, I said what everyone else was thinking. It got me in a lot of hot water. But alas, 29 years later, allows me to bestow the name of being CRAZY — by a murderer!
TOP THAT!
