Just out of curiosity, I wonder how most members get there username. Creating a username is something that normally sticks with you and have meaning of something quick to make up that you can remember. I got my username "Bmachine" from the movie "The Longest Yard" starring Adam Sandler. When they used the term "Mean Machine". Since my initial is MB and a few of my colleagues I work out with and play sports with called me that. I just switched it to mean Bmachine. How did a few of you come up with yours?

Used to have a Corvette that had 4 exhaust pipes, and I had chrome tips installed. Lost one of the tips and became Tri-Tip.

Ronin78 · 29 June 2016, 01:08 PM

My year of birth is 1978.

Ronin were masterless Samurai. The only person I've ever looked up to sadly passed away recently. I feel as though, at times, I'm simply wandering through my days anymore.

the_Hunter · 29 June 2016, 01:08 PM

I was just Hunter until we had another Hunter join a club I was in during college... so then I became The Hunter and he went by his last name.

singe89 · 30 June 2016, 02:30 PM

Singe89...my father was a firefighter that died on duty. He had a more than a few close calls before his death so they named him Singe. 89 was his football number that I wore in high school and college in his honor.

james1787 · 30 June 2016, 02:56 PM

james1787. Well, you can guess my first name...

The 1787.. well, that came from the first telephone number I had for myself when I lived at my parents house growing up. I had to come up with a screen name so I looked at the telephone and added my name. Heh, it's still tied to my original email address which is over 20 years old now!

69mach351 · 1 July 2016, 12:18 AM

Time Exposure · 1 July 2016, 05:03 AM

Back when I started collecting watches (mid-1980's), I was also collecting cameras (pre-digital days). I fashioned a name for my "fantasy" business. It's more of a photographic term on its own, but at the time I thought it was a clever way of tying together two passions.

daveathall · 1 July 2016, 05:41 AM

I live in a nearly 300 year old cottage called Hall Cottage, my name is Dave, hence daveathall (dave at hall).

dysondiver · 1 July 2016, 05:49 AM

My name backwards is cram, so I figured better pick something else...

Frosty · 7 July 2016, 08:33 AM

I used to do a lot of training. I saw Aliens and liked it when Hicks said, “We're all in strung out shape, but stay frosty, and alert.”

I used to end the session by saying, “Stay frosty out there!”

It stuck.

superstarmar · 7 July 2016, 08:45 AM

My name is Mario . I'm a professional drummer amongst
other things and used to be called supermario by my
music friends and peers ... I still am called that every now
and then when I play

Hence Superstarmar cause I'm a Rock Star...

Love off road trucks. Hunting and ranching in Texas. Plus have rural tower sites to access. Always drive a Jeep or Land Rover.
Five Jeeps. And eight Land Rovers thru the years
