I thought I might as well inform the masses where I got the website name. It isn't an interesting story, nor a long one.
During High School, I would practice how best to sign my name. We have all done it. What is the best way to write it? What is the coolest way? Fastest? Original? Easy? Easy.... yes that is the best. With looking up to my dad growing up, I noticed that he signs his name, GHayes. It is all in cursive. I still don't know how it is easier to write the cursive G than the regular G, but it's his name.
So that is what I decided. JHayes is quick, easy, and I can remember that. Apparently I can't remember how I write my name under pressure and when I am sick. I was in Spanish class, and had to turn in my homework by passing it up to the front of the class. So in my haste I wrote my name J Hason Hayes... Once I finished I looked at my paper, handed it to the girl in front of me, and started to laugh. Of course I just had to share what was so funny with my friends. Yep, I didn't live that mistake down.
Maybe I should name my first boy Hason. Poor kid, lucky dad. I mean, if I had a wife that would let me get away with that....

I signed Larry & Priscilla's Christmas card with my full name...I hope theirs was the only one I did that way. The things we do when our brains are not on the task at hand, which is quite often for me. I got called in to work this morning. The job isn't hard, it's just that you really need to be able to multi-task at times. Give me ONE thing to do, and I do fine, give me two things and I start getting nervous, any more than that, I get plumb stupid. Never fails, the phone always rings when I've got 49 things going at once...sigh. The daysheet balanced though, so I didn't do so bad.
In 6th grade I changed my name. We were studying the planets and were having a test. I memorized them in order: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto. I kept going over and over and over those names in order. When Mr. Barba asked the class in his smarta$$ tone "Whose name is Mercury Hayes?", I wanted to crawl under the desk. Hason Mercury Hayes...that would be a cool name. Let's work on finding the woman who'll birth the child for you.
Too funny. I remember when you did that, Jason. I thought you were such a dork. But, I still love ya.
1. I sigh my name GHayes because I don't have to lift the pen from the paper...
2. I was about 10 years old and I was signing some papers at the bank so I could get a savings account. I was a little nervous and ended up signing my name "Gaylen Haylen". I've done more than once....
#. The first day of my residency at Lubbock someone paged "Dr. Hayes" and I sat there for a moment thinking, "Hey, they've got a doctor here with the same last name as me.......Oh".
