On the Road with Joe

A delightful tour of the United States and assorted locations through the mind of a deranged young genius, named Joe. A cynical and jovial treatment of our fine nation and its finer cities, this blog will focus on people, places, and the endless pursuit of candied corned beef.

Nicknames

I was discussing the topic of nicknames with a beautiful young woman the other evening over a glass of wine. I got to thinking that it would be interesting to see how many of the publicly printable names I can remember that I have had. There are various categories... family, friends, time periods, etc...but I probably won't put them in the categories. I'll put notes next to them if I have room.

Born: Joseph Maurice Bagley

*Joseph - elementary
*Joe - common
*Joey - (copyright held by my grandma)
*Joe Bag - high school. most common.
*Bagley - all purpose
*Cheese Whiz - elementary. long story. stuck for a while.
*Joe Moe - high school
*Maurice - high school. short lived.
*Bagels - college
*Choey - amish babysitter. now my parents.
*Choe - amish babysitter
*Cheese Veele - copyright held by cousin Chen Su (Jennifer Sue, a.k.a. Lettuce Veele). long story.
*Pecos Pete - Dad called me this when I was a wee little guy

I'll post more as they come to mind. There are only a couple non-printables. I'll let you think of them on your own.....



Sinner.

You forgot the one I used to call you when I used to tuck you into bed at night. "Pecos Pete". Oh, and you were 2 years old not in high school as I'm sure Mr. Bergman was wondering.
