Where did your user name come from??

[J.W.]

Simply my initials. No middle name, so I won't go down in history as a president or mass-murderer.

 

[bloc]

I am a Welsh milliner and bloc is Welsh for block (as in hat block). You would never have guessed, ay...

 

[puffMe]

I just find it cute. Well for some reasons, it randomly came out in my mind and I thought it's good so that's it.

 

[cw3pa]

My rank and job title when I retired from the US Army.

 

[loosebolts]

most of the stuff around me is either broken or requires constant tightening bolts.

 

[Warlord of The Weejuns]

"The Warlord of The Weejuns" was the title of liner notes for a Miles Davis album written by Esquire fashion writer George Frazier. I liked the title and the essay. I like weejuns also and just the thought of those shoes in the context of a warlord was just too much. Try to visualize that as a fashion image! And last, but not least I am a huge Miles Davis fan.

 

[Revolver]

I am a firearms collector and shooter and I've always been fascinated with the mechanical workings and beauty of a vintage revolver.

 

[The Reno Kid]

During a long summer break while I was in college (a very long time ago now), I got a job tending bar in a pub in London. One of the regulars asked where I was from. I told him and he promptly christened me "The Reno Kid." It caught on and stuck for the remainder of my tenure behind the bar.

 

[rocketeer]

'The Rocketeer' Just one of my favourite action films with the gorgeous Jennifer Connelly. Staring who else?........Now......let me think?

 

[STEVIEBOY1]

Wanted a vintage-sounding girl's name, which my real name is not, and violas are pretty flowers (violets and pansies and johnny-jump-ups).

Yes Violets and Violas are pretty flowers as well as nice names, my mother is a Violet, pansies can be stunning too and such large flowers, but what is a Johnny-Jump-up?

 

[Strapped-4-Cache]

My username came from a geocaching forum and has remained with me through all others in which I've participated. At the time I created it, a big focus on the forum was to log as many caches as possible. As a newbie, my numbers were well below most other members. The pun was too much to resist, so Strapped-4-Cache was created.

 

[CataWhatas]

We have 3 Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dogs - Catahoulas for short - and an honorary Catahoula (his Momma was an honorable Nanny Dog from Hurricane Katrina, his Daddy is unknown - since he came from Louisiana, he's a Catahoula at heart). People always respond "Cata whata?" So oldest son started calling them Catawhatas and it stuck.

 

[gear-guy]

I am a man who loves to be in the outdoors. Camp, hike ,canoe,ect. So the name gearguy seemed to fit. 55 is the year I was born which if your math is correct that makes me 35. LOL
