Someone called Deandre - they never posted and never logged on according to the user list ...

What's so magic about 1337?

Hehe. I'm just bored at work
It's LEET for elite, in the elite language of the elites amongst the gamers and hackers and the forces from the dark side.
Replace letters with resembling numbers. "L" with "1", "A" with "4", "E" with "3" (ya, I know would be "B" really) an so on.
Never mind, I'm just being stupid and childish for a while. I'm bored as said.

I have similar problems at university - being bored and start writing some stupid stuff all over the papers. But the funny thing is - the time really passes fast than!

You could probably make a whole list of guitar related ones if you tried hard ...
