Where does your user name come from?


Hi everyone,
I'm curious to know what's the story behind your user name (or Alias)... There are a bunch of people that use their name (of parts of it) like myself, Albert Porter, GerryM5, Esoler...

But where does user name like Cornfedboy, Garfish, Calloway, Tireguy, SwampWalker (and many many others) come from? Any story behind?

Just curious

It was an easy pick for me & covers a lot of area. I drive a tractor trailer & it's standard business practice to call the truck driver "driver". Also I thought driver would help identify with audio as it is one of the essential components and lastly since A-gon is made possible with our computers it is fitting that a driver is also a computer device.

Registering here was the first time I used it & although I've tried to use it on other sites (like ebay) it's usually taken.
Bluenose is a nickname that used to signify you're from Nova Scotia. Just like we used to call Newfoundlanders from the rock, "Nuffies". I just thought noone would be using "Bluenose". Of course they used to also call us "herring chokers". Of course we had to have "blue" potatoes to go with the fish....
Mine comes from my love of a certain German-made horizontally opposed twin motorcycle, mostly the late 50's early 60's R69S, equipped with sidehack and Earles fork.
I use my dogs name Gretchen (85lbs German Shepherd). I really think she loves the system more than I do. We actually fight for the couch when I turn it on.

Cheers, Jim
i lived in iowa during the first 27 years of my life. where corn was, and still is, a staple. in the "hard" variety for livestock and in the "sweet" form, picked and eaten within the day, for such as i.
