Time to explain

Ok...get asked the question "Where did "cclarry" come from quite a bit,
so will take the time to explain the origin of the "cc" moniker...

I used to manage a chain of 3 Cell Phone stores.  We sold all 5 MAJOR
carriers, as well as every pre-paid phone service, as well as selling accessories
and Dish Network and Direct TV.  The name of the company was "Courtesy Communications"!

So, when I worked there, I become "CC Larry"...so, long story short...THAT is 
where the "cclarry" moniker came from.  It's on all my email addresses...so I just 
kept it...LOL
 
NOW YOU KNOW!

Larry,
 
You're supposed to keep them things secret.

So, basically, you're only 10% of what 10CC is, ya?

This thread is a little dull.  Maybe if you included incestial thoughts with a sister or something?

Interesting (not really).
 
I always thought (no I didn't) that 'cc' was for 'Credit Card'
 
That's what Larry means to me

I used to think it stood for "Carbon Copy," but then I stopped thinking.

Could be worse, Larry.
I got "Slugbaby" because I was cuddled up with a girlfriend watching a movie and eating something.  She mumbled "mmm, tastes like bacon" but I heard "Hmmm, slugbaby" and thought she'd come up with a strange cutesy nickname.
It stuck around, much longer than SHE did!
 
Actually, seems kinda funny now with the too-often jokes about bacon that come up here...
