What's The Origin Of Your User Name?

[canon]

I use the AFDB too but I do it all mentally.
I find the ectoplasm buildup with tin foil
gets too messy for evereyday phenomenomn.

Are we protected in our package cars since they are aluminum? Sometimes I feel unsafe in thunderstorms.

...so do I...

 

[Steelheader]

Have two names on here (If I can get my old one back, would rather use it instead). I was originally Steelheader69 on here. It's my moniker on my fishing bulletin boards. I'm a Steelheader (which is a person who fishes for Steelhead) and I was born in 69'. Trust me, have had numerous emails over the years from people thinking I was some sort of porn spammer with the Steelheader69 on my email account. LOL

The NWRiverfisherman is my business name. I'm a professional fly/jig tyer here in the NW. Have had articles published in Salmon Trout Steelheader magazine and have some flies being published in a new book on NW salmon flies shortly. I'm a fly designer also for a major flycompany out of Utah (just design, I don't tie in bulk). Figured I'd stay away from the UPS names and stick with what I normally use on the net. Easier for me to remember my log in that way as well.

Man O Man... Don't do that! You're opening a giant CANOWORMS! Sometimes the steward needs to open that can and let the worms see the light.

 

[toonertoo]

I will see if I can figure a way to reset you to your former name, that was a good one!!

 

[loserupser]

well my story goes like this; one of my stops dock guys were referring to us the ups crew as losers not to my face till I overheard them. Then I made a comment that Friday, that I only had made $1500 that week. The look on that poor loser was priceless(shock, disbelief, despair), and then they would ask me questions about the pay or benefits but I would never disclose that info. Of course he was just a dock guy, but he was better than me. Ever since then I would get the look U know THE LOOK!

Was that 1500 dollars gross or net? lol

 

[dumbsup]

Mine is a quote from a div. mgr who has since retired, he used to call all of us dumbsup's...

 

[Saltman]

I have used mine in the past, refering to my U.S. Navy days as a salty sea dog (2 tours in the gulf) only to realize it to be more fitting in this career-coming home with visual dried salt on my browns!

 

[SmithBarney]

I now see the sexual conotation in 30andout... its ok. if you work on it you can make
it a whole minute... j/k

as for mine.. has nothing to do with fredex... I named my first computer
fredly...?(don't ask, I was young) and the handle stuck... there are lots
of people using the handle around the web now though.. which is strange.

 

[satellitedriver]

I didn't put much thought in my User Name. When I decided to register, all the cool names like Wornoutupser, 30andOut, Sendagain, DoubleStandard, Over9five, Toonertoo, were already taken. My first nickname at work was "Crash", I have been also called "Oldtimer" and "OldGeezer". Those were taken too. That evening, my dog that I use as my avatar, was doing what we call a "Victory Roll". He was on his back wiggling back and forth trying to scratch a flea he couldn't get to. My wife made a comment like "look at Freckles, the Scratch King". So I used that.

When I was asked to become a Moderator, I thought about using another User Name, but I figured it would be too much trouble to log on and off. I thought about using "Barney Fife" or "Under9Five". At least I'm honest!

And your honesty shows. Thank you.

 

[RockyRogue]

My username is two words, actually. Rocky (after the region of the country or UPS district) and Rogue because I'm a rebel! Try to stomp on me ??!!? I THINK NOT! -Rocky

 

[upsgrunt]

It's the type of work I do and the sound I make doing it!

 

[RedYeti]

I have fellow TSG techs to thank for mine. We went out into the woods one weekend playing airsoft and you can imagine a what image a 6'4" red headed stepchild lumpering through the woods might conjure up.

 

[Captain America]

You know the comic book? I agree with the good Captain's philosophy of fighting for what is right and not giving in because then I could not live with myself happily. That and Underdog was taken.Punk's not dead!

 

[Bad Gas!]

The origin of mine is an upset stomach...It's a good thing we have an outdoor job....I could probably work at a paper mill and be ok...I know,way too much info, but you asked!!!! LOL

 

[71chevy]

I drive a 2002 Ford Explorer

 

[Esty]

Verry simple Esty is short for my last name I have been called Esty since I was in Jr. High
there were 5 Eric's so I became Esty

 

[ol'browneye]

I have blue eyes.

 

[filthpig]

I guess it just "sings". It doesn't have anything to do with my schlong. If it did my handle would be "holyjesusthatsjustfarginhuge".
