Gaels,
  There may have been a thread on this in the past but I'm gonna go for it anyhow.. I'm curious to know what some of the names/aliases/monikers/pseudonyms mean of the folk who post on this board? There are some first class names on this board and I'd be interested to know their meaning/origin.. I know we are approaching the business end of the championship but it'd be a much needed break from chattin about Paul Galvin...

So here goes:

'GrandMasterFlash' (for those who don't know or weren't born until after the 70's) is the moniker of 'Joseph "Biggie Grand" Saddler', the hiphop DJ, better known as Grandmaster Flash. You've probably all head the tune 'The Message' at some point in your existence produced by GrandMaster Flash and the Furious Five.
