laz is the short for the americanized pronounciation of my name lazz-lo (which everyone but my family refers to me as). the hungarian (also spanish) pronouncation of my name is actually "lahs-lo". but when i began going to school my teachers referred to me as laz-lo. i never corrected them and it stuck. also every other american/english pronouncation of laszlo i have heard, particularly in film/tv (casablanca, real genius, etc), has been pronounced LAZZ-LO. i guess its similar to something like pronouncing the name jose (ho-seh vs. ho-zay).
having said that, i enjoy having multiple pronouncations of my name and am very use to it.
the first use of the shortened version of my name (LAZ) was probably first used by best friend (between the ages of 11 and 13) nate's mother. i will always associate "LAZ" with being picked up from my parents house in a red cigarette smoke-filled 2-door sports car blasting 101 the fox. she would turn her blonde spiral permed head to the back seat and say "how's it goin LAZ?". my response was most likely something like "ok...*cough cough*"
LAZ is also associated with a certain gym coach at north kansas city high school. this was the same coach that supervised my one day mis-sentenced in-school suspension.

I'm a huge comic book fan and I'm double jointed, I'm Will the Plastic Man. I prefer the original 40's comics to the new shit they put out now. Plastic Man would have never joined the fucking Justice League. If he did, it would be like when the Hulk joined the Avengers... It would end in mass chaos.
It helps me be a graceful diver. In China, they don't accept kids into their Olympic diving program if they don't have my unique trait.

Way back in high school a friend of mine was leaving his house to pick me up. When his mother asked where he was going. He responded "to pick up Tom" ... than she said.... "Ohh, Prolific Tom?" ... he said "umm sure?" and left. It didn't make any sense and I've consulted numerous dictionaries trying to figure out what the hell she may have meant to no avail. I did however decide it'd be a good alias and I've applied it to myself. I like to think it's a compliment but have no real idea.

one time i was in a strangers bedroom... and he sexed me up, then left. i felt betrayal, loathing and fear. the only thing that gave me hope was that unicorn on his dresser. so i took it and ran. i ran and ran and ran and ran. when i got home later that day a fucking unicorn came out my tear duct and i was like. "shit." fin.
unicorns are my favorite imaginary magical horse-like creature... and the band is alright too.

when we went to st. louis to record the anne emergency ep there were just too many bens (ben smith, ben addict, some guy named ben who's straight edge). i just decided to be gator 'cause i thought it sounded cool. it kind of stuck more than my other punk names--ben controlled, jesus kennedy, etc.
i'm really pimping my current punk name though: enron hubbard.
