Re: why my screename, why yours?

Well I wont hold you all in suspense even though most have figured it out already. <br />Most sites want you to use a name that you will not forget. It must have a certain amount of letters and another (non letter) character. After many tries with things that would mean something to me and got many rejections and suggestions from the site like "Mark1258874525966" I typed in f_inscreenname out of frustration and as joke, it went through. Once it was accepted to the site I was trying to join you couldn’t change it without have a different email address. I only had one email address at the time so it stuck. I also wanted to keep the same screen name on any site I joined so if I ran across people on other sites they would know it was me. The “small world thing”. The strange thing was after being part of the original site for a few months they changed my screen name without telling me (to “_screen name”). I couldn’t log in for a week or so and after figuring out what they did I never went back but the name stuck. So if you have seen the name “f_inscreenname” on the web anywhere for the last 7 years it was me and it always works the first time.

Re: why my screename, why yours?

Well that is my handle on the cb radio seeing as I am a truck driver. In anticipation of the next question in everybody’s mind where did the name treedancer come from? <br /> In a land for away before random drug testing there was a time and a pill that had the nickname New York Los angles turn. A turn in trucking is making a run and back without stopping. That is exaggerating it a bit but you get the drift.<br /> That was years ago before I got married and settled down and got some good since but the handle stuck.

I picked CN Spots cuz I've spent the last two years focusing on spotted bass (Kentucky bass) fishing. <br /><br />I used to go by Stoopidfish, the name of my reel repair hobby/business but I forgot my password and changed email addresses.<br /><br />spots

roflmao @ Pony......gee's I blame the parents :D <br /><br />Stan deezy: say it a few times out loud. In the Royal Navy it means either relaxing from "stand at ease" when on parade or relax after an officer walks on deck or into your cabin/work area etc.<br /><br />More importantly.....<br />It also means a break from working which was one of the only bits I enjoyed about the service :D

"Bàthaidh toll beag long mhòr."<br /><br />Hey Stan, curiosity leads me to ask, is your signature written in Scottish or is it in Welsh?
