First initial and last name.

Don't believe in hiding identity on the net.

But last name is such a mess of Polish letters, it acts as a code name lots of times!

Bill

How droll! What kind of person do you have to be to do something so boring like that?! :lol_hitti

Not too creative, but tried to think of something original so back when I worked as a machinist we had to use a truing bar once in a while to make sure the tailstock wasn't off center. That and some people think I'm a little off center. :eyecrazy:

Dogsbody was the radio call sign of a childhood "hero".
I got to feeling sorry for myself after surgery at age 14 and someone gave me a book called "Reach for the Sky" about a pilot that lost his legs and eventually got back into the cockpit. Never had to overcome that kind of adversity but its a good reminder to me that others might be going through all kinds of less obvious challenges.

Because Tim Taylor was already taken and Al Borland was the competent one anyway.
(And I don't really look like a "Lisa" or a "Heidi")

619 is my area code and DioFan is because I am a huge , lifelong fan of the late great heavy metal god Ronnie James Dio, my avatar pic is actually me and it was taken at the funeral/memorial service for Ronnie almost 8 years ago ( it will be 8 years this may )

SP are my initials. Started building gym equipment as a hobby. Came up with Strength and Power Equipment Company as a name. Strength and Power became the condensed name. Currently in a holding pattern but had my logo tattooed as it is meaningful to me and a reminder .IMG_0783.jpg

The sweetest cat we ever owned and miss dearly.

I'm on other forums with the same name. Everyone thinks my name is Joey. Pretty funny to me.

I’m a big guy “Big”, last name Nugent, “Nuge” for short.

BigNuge

Unfortunately, no relation to Uncle Ted...

I inherited the nickname from my father, we lost him to a motorcycle accident 22 years ago.

Stay safe everybody.

My first day on the flightdeck of the USS Eisenhower (CVN69) as a brownshirt Plane Captain for F-14 Tomcats of The Ghostriders, I was thrown a cranial helmet and told to personalize it with my nickname.
So on the spot I took my last name and got rid of three letters and came with benz.
Because I was working the day shift, I put am on the front...hence ambenz, been my nickname ever since.
My motto...."Anytime Baby...!"

I was playing on a Day of Defeat: Source server pretty regularly... one of the other regular players on that server went by the name JewishFury

one night everyone started changing their names to things like ChristianFury, BuddhistFury, etc... I went with AmishFury

it ended up sticking

also easier for people to pronounce than SgtPnkks (pancakes... long story)
