So what does D.A.B.U. actually stand for? Well, there's actually been so many iterations to the acronym. The real meaning behind the name though is a group of friends that enjoy hanging out and having fun. We're a very tight nit group but love to meet new people and try new things. I will tell you that the letter D stands for "Drunken". Now before you go making assumptions... just know that we were major fans of Drunken Master II. If you're a Jackie Chan fan, Drunken Master II is without a doubt the best of his work. Watching that movie in college led to a lot of funny "drunken" moments and at one point we started to catalog all those events. We started an e-mail that we passed around the group and created "The Drunken List". To visitors the drunken list might look a bit strange, but to most of us it'll bring back tons of memories. Enjoy DABU... and by all means, if you have more drunken memories... post comments!

Back in the day, DABU was also a quake clan before expanding to non-quake players and friends we made through the years. We even had a website up that Chris had put together. Unfortunately we lost most of the original data from that website. The picture above was a portion of that website which was also used in creating the first Halloween Party CD cover. Back then we had our silly quake/dabu names (and tag lines). Starting from the top left corner and going clockwise, we have:
- DEC - The Server Sleeps
- Pang in da Ass - Muthaphuckin Fearless
- Kamikaze - Me No GayBoy!
- Caine - Skippy Represent!
- Lilly - Joy of the Kill
- Gee Yer Dead - The Soft A' More
- King B - He Rulez Your Mom
- Saber - Yes No Maybe
- Dasinator - Get to da Chopper!
- Lecker - Da Byatch
- Bitchass - Time for N*%&#!
- God - Leonard w/ Seeds
- Kryten - Sir Andrew
- CoJonez - The Doughboy
- Trinity - Right Hand of the Devil
- Spaniard - Alfonso the Basque
Not pictured, we also had the following quake clan members...
Serfs and StableHands:
- Dan a.k.a. The Wiggleman
- Yusef a.k.a. Kevlar
Grasshoppers and Crickets:
- Miss Yang a.k.a. JoMamma
- Suzy-Q a.k.a. Q-T-Killa!
- Ray a.k.a. Manta
- Dawime... The One And Only

Ran across Tom's Graduation scrap book. When Tom graduated from college and was heading to Europe, DABU put together a little scrap book for him. Scanned the photos and they are now online, enjoy.

Thought I'd share these photos with the gang. I've been packing for the past couple of weeks, preparing for my trip to Florida... and came across photos that were almost 10 years old. Can you believe that? That's how old D.A.B.U. is basically! -B.A.
