It's where I live. The Upper West Side of Manhattan.
Back when I was on Spectrum BBS I had to create a handle to join. Everyone had very creative names so I picked justchillin cause it's something I always like to do.:D . I didn't get justchillin.com but I got http://www.justchillin.us
Good forum topic...
Although the Urban Dictionary has some definitions (http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...term=chuntaro), I prefer my meaning (below):
"Chuntaro Style" can mean many things but the idea I had in mind when I came up with my forum name was someone who likes to do things the old fashioned way.
Often we tend to think of old fashioned ways of doing things as being "derogatory, uncultured, or just plain out of date; but I kind of like the idea that each person has their own style. Just like straight shaving is old fashioned and we each have our own style when it comes to preparing for the shaving experience.
Preferences from style and size of the razor, clear gel or foam shave cream, to after shave lotion or Bay Rum Aftershave are what make this old fashioned way of shaving so great! It is not really a hobby after all, it is our way of life.
Cheers!!:y
Chuntaro Style
Mine's pretty straightforward: my first and middle names are Abram Axel, so I just squished them together. I sometimes wonder where that M ended up, though...
I'm a raging nerd and Doctor Who fanboy.
I wanted to use my first name, Marcus, on another site long ago,
but it was taken, so I started adding numbers to it...After getting
up to 5, I thought it was creepy, because I have only met about 4
people named Marcus in my life ( I'm 55). Oddly, two of them were
at one company I worked at. Anyway, I added the year I got married.
I told my wife I did that because that's when my life began....and in
a way...I was right!
Mine is from my Navy days.
I was on an Aviation Boatswain Mate on a carrier and worked on the arresting gear (catching the planes). We were in the same department as those who launched the planes off the catapults (The Cats) and we were named Gear Dogs.
Funny but the whole time I was in the Navy I wanted out and was called Civilian Emilian by all and once out I adopted the name Gear Dog.
Ummmm errr..............
think cigars.....
Very oad, while I was reading in your post that you made a camera for Sally Mann there was just a documentary starting on her on the Dutch television channel 'Nederland 2'.
The camera she used look like a wooden frame 'technical camera' with wide format glass plates and a certain liquid used in the civil war to close wounds (approx. 12"x12"??), could that be made by you?
And do you mean George Eastman from Kodak Eastman ? Or am I mixing up names here?
