It is also cartoon shorthand for hard liquor.

Just like I never see those money bags with dollar signs on them.

Huh? I thought it stood for booze....and would be a great homage to the Moonshiner's legacy of North Carolina.

Somewhere the state maintains a list of "forbidden" letter combinations. Every state has it.

Somebody just forgot one, is all. It was only in the last several months that NC got up to "X" as the first letter. The issue never came up before.

if your handle means that you are a dad, and in your 50’s, I am only a few weeks away from joining your club. The 50’s part.

Real pornography has been as easy as pie to get since we were youngsters. Likely well before that. Most of what I read suggests that it’s not the kids viewing porn at the library, it’s the oldtimers who have no internet connection of their own.

Sometimes drinking too much XXX will lead to seXXX, but that was my first impression as well.

When I assumed the handle, it meant I was a Dad in the 50's mentality...work hard, buck up, stop whining, do your homework, the world doesn't owe you anything, you have to earn it, that kind of thing.

As the years have passed, I have moved towrds the OTHER meaning of the pseudonym...check with me in 2010!
