If your bored, reply back with your explanation

Mine:
It's 1991 and I'm logging onto a Bulletin Board via my 4800 Baud Modem (does anyone even remember what that is

), and it's the start of the need for a username/password.

Being very uncreative, I took my name and modified it:
"Gregory" dropping the 1st and last letter leaves me with "Regor".

And it's been my username online for 20 years now.

Greg (aka Regor)

There use to be a Surf company called Jimmy Z and seeing how that is my name and the first initial of my last name people thought it was my company, which it was not, but I did wear and support the company. So I just stuck with that. the 123 part came with the early AOL chatroom days, most just call me JimmyZ and leave off the 123 part and that's perfectly fine.

My real name is Josh Rider...
I always used to say...
If I ever have a boy...
his first name would be Motor...
middle name, Cycle...
last name....
well...it's just a good thing I had a daughter...
I guess the next best thing was for me to be Yak Rider...
I know...I'm a dork!

Well Matt is Matt

Stinky is the smell most often associated with my lack of fishing success!

ful-rac · 02-09-2011, 04:46 PM

Ful-rac is the shortend name of type of fishing I like to do....I love it when the fishing goes Full rack, which means wide open. I think the term comes from the racks that the old commercial tuna guys used to fish from years ago.

tunaseeker · 02-09-2011, 04:54 PM

I have not really done much salt water fishing, grew up in Big Bear hitting the trout in the summer and slopes in the winter, but dreamed of hooking up a large tuna. Some day that dream will come true... So there ya go..

Tunaseeker...

Hunter: Last name

The 80's man: Was in highschool from mid to late 80s... The 80s left such an impression in my life that I married the hot chick next door who was born in 1980 (he he he). Hence, "The 80s man"

Jorge

Villegas

Ergo jorluivil................

My AKA is my user name on Bloodydecks. I used to spend lots of time on that site (over 1500 post and counting) but when I bought my yak and sold my boat it all changed. Its a cool site but it caters more to the private boaters than the yakker.

Douglas
Gaxiola
65 a random number that has nothing to do with when I was born

Gaxiola is a Basque name. In Euskara, the language of the Basque people, it means fat guy in a little boat.

Yeah he has his ways, but in the long run it kinda backfired, now I build big motors that go fast...

GregAndrew · 02-10-2011, 12:11 AM

Got tired of having to put some numbers after "Greg" or "GregA" even to create usernames. And my last name is one of those "what the hell does that mean" things to start with. So I just used my middle name after my first name, and have not had a problem since.

Used to fly in the Air Force. They put you in a high altitude chamber to demonstrate loss of oxygen at altitude. It sort of stuck from there.

mine is OAKTREE spelled backwards because my last name is OAK and usually when I sign up on forums or other websites that require a username, "oaktree" is usually taken so I automatically just use "eertkao" since I'm pretty sure it's never been used.
