Besides the people who use their real names, what meaning
or significance does your screen name have? Mine was
given to me by one of my Sensi's and by definiton means
a:Blustering swaggering conduct b:a pretense of bravery
c:The quality or state of being foolhardy. :)
What's yours mean?
 
Really hard to say how I acquired the nickname of marsupial from my friends,one incident in particular involved a 6 pack of Corona,a 38 special,and wild possum attack.Hey it was dark in them bushes!
 
What can I say? Topwater fishing is the only thing in life that I find more addictive than knives. I've been using this handle since before there was a world wide web. It's just kinda' stuck with me.

Oh yah. I'm also known in certain circles as Scarecrow. It's from my younger and skinnier days.

"The training place of the teachings from heart to heart."

Name of our Martial Art Dojo. :rolleyes:
 
Well, my name is guy, and they call me gundy as a nickname, because of the old Aussie song...

"...the man from Gundagai (gundy-guy)...":D

But they also call me pugs from a misshap whilst fishing once, but I aint telling that story unless theres a bottle of wild turkey involved!:p
 
David means beloved
Brown that is a cool color :D :D :D
 
My wife and I are originally from back East(my wife from upstate NY and I'm from Boston) We met when we both were working on the ski patrol at killington,VT after graduating from college. I was dissappointed in Killington after skiing for 4 yrs at Stowe and Smuggler's Notch while going to UVM, so we decided that after we got married we would move out West and ski and live in the Rockies(Go big or go home I always say :cool: ) So right after our honeymoon, we packed up the truck and moved....(come on sing with me ;) )...Park City, UT That was 15 years and 2 kids ago, now with our ski bum days in the past I own a small business in Ogden, UT so my handle is about my life choices....it's the UTAH MOUNTAINS FOR ME :D

Besides, if I said utpowder4me people would get the wrong idea LOL:eek:
 
Thanks Bravado. and thanks for passing on that serrated Basic 9 :D I picked that up. Did you find a GB? You'll love that if you get one. I'm not a real tanto guy but that secondary point is fantastic for detailed utility cutting.
 
Hunter, I knew you were next in line for the 9 good to
hear you got it. :) No luck on the GB yet but thanks
for asking. Please post a pic. when you get the 9, I'm
sure there's a few INFIHOLICS that would like to see it.

I was real tempted on that 9, but I held out for Blade.

Wait until you see what I'm picking up next week;)

Maybe Jerry will bring some of my stuff to me at Blade too.
Stand by for pictures....
 
one upon a time a female cop who had me cuffed and wearing my birthday suit tried to clown me and embarrass me in front of some of my associates and commented in a disparraging way about the way I was blessed with the lowly "Standard White-Boy Issue"----uhm,uhm.........


I told her, with a smile, "Babe, I'm hung like a bull-hamster"


T.M.I. , yes, and it may get deleted and me in trouble, but you asked!


it was a class act that made me famous among my friends...............
 
Anyone ever have favorite a screen name but it's being used by somone else?

Well, I had to resort to using Chinese... My folks are from the old country, but I was born here... It's easier to find a screen name using some Chinese word. BTW, chiseen means crazy!!
 
It came from repeated calls at work. When I was helping someone with a problem, they'd call back and say "I need to talk to that Mike guy.." People started with the "hey it's that Mike guy" daily, and it stuck.

When I first started posting, I wasn't sure about putting my name out there, so Mike became just "m".
 
RVO3VOM is my license plate. I came up with it when I saw a poster of vanity plates from all 50 states. I was able to figure out all but two of them until I read their mirror image. You know, how the front plate of the car behind you appears in your rear view mirror.
RVO3VOM = MOVEOVR

Yes, it has worked for me numerous times. It's also amused several LEOs after they've stopped me for pressing the footfeed a bit much.:D
But the absolute best has been watching the faces of those drivers stopped behind me at a light.:) I see them mouthing different guesses, twisting their heads, getting their passengers to read it; it's very amusing.:cool:
 
Drew,

That's excellent!!!
Imitation is the sincerest form of flatter, do you mind if I steal your idea and see if that's available in my state.

I have to spend a lot of time in the car for my business and I would get a kick out of that. I like that a LOT.
