It was a waxing moon when I decided to give knife making an honest go.

NM = Nuclear Meltdown, MTM = initials, 379 = March 1979 - month and year Voyager I probe photos revealed Jupiter's rings for a grand total of NMMTM379

Elgin · Jun 27, 2016

Elgin is the town I lived in most of my life, and still work in.

Also, it was the name I used on the very first forum I signed up for, so I've just stuck with it for any others.

Interesting. Why was that event significant to you 36 years on?

I grew up loving everything about space as my parents taped all of Comos: A Personal Voyage. I got every book, documentary, etc. I could get my hands on (that my parents could afford) but my favorite planet was always the largest gas giant and the discovery date of the rings just stuck with me and in every forum name I've had is 379.

Well, I have a few usernames from online gaming and such in the past(dshorb14, Dominatordie), but I decided they didn't really fit anywhere besides there. Spent a short amount of time trying to think of a new one for forums and things, gave up and went with my name.

CHEMMINS · Jun 30, 2016

Started building a 1 ton chev....then we went to put a cummins in it and that's CHEMMINS.

No longer have the chev....but have a cummins.

JohnTheTexican · Jul 2, 2016

Before they had "social media," there were mailing lists for people with like interests. I was on where there was more than one person named John, so I became "John in Texas." Someone started referring to me as "the Texican," and I just went with it.

An Orthodox Jewish woman had once described me as "An angel in a Purim mask."

She went on to explain that, while my veneer was offensive, and, at times hostile, that my underlying character was that of a person who doesn't hesitate to help others or "do the right thing."

Thrill · Jul 2, 2016

A play on my last name.

resinguy · Jul 2, 2016

I like how all these folk who hardly ever post are posting in this thread. :thumbup:

We could use some more posters, instead of lurkers...
