[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 2386044, member: 13337"] When I was born I was named after my father (Howard) and my grandfather (Hughes),,, That's how I became Howard Hughes Graham. My Mom swore up and down that I was six months old,,, Before it dawned on her what she had done to me. Thanks Mom. I was born in 1951,,, Howard Hughes was in the news every danged day. So, my father gave me the tough guy nickname of Buster. Thanks Dad. The list of derogatory plays on the names included Howie, Howard the coward (instant fist-fight), Howard Huge, Baby Huey, Graham crackers, Buster Brown, Buster Crab, Buster cherry, and many more. All through my childhood, school, and my adult life I was never called by the name Howard,,, I was called Buster all through school and 8 years of military service,,, Koreans can't easily say Buster,,, I was Sgt. Bastard. Again, thanks dad. When I got out of the Air Force I decided to change my name,,, I liked the name Aaron and just added a D to the end to make it a bit different. I've been Aarond H. Graham for more years than I was Buster or Howard. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
