Okay guys, you will have to humor me on this one.... you all know by now that I am a female, and very curious ..soooooooooo
I would like to know how everyone picks the names you use in here

Some are obvious, but others? *LOL*.. lets just say it leaves a lot for the imagination..

    I have heard the ORANGELLO, LEMONGELLO and FEMALE. How about SYPHILIS, she saw it on her chart and thought it sounded pretty.

    I took the name of a very rare mammal that roams the woods in the midatlantic states.
    The SALZO is a large docile mammal, that likes to be left alone. Though when provoked, the SALZO will bite you in the *.

    Matches my real-life initials and sounds sort of cool, like the sword that cut the Gordian Knot (or some spell Gordion Knot).

    I liked to climb trees when I was younger and was often called a monkey, when I started doing it in my super man jammies I became the super monkey!

    Don't worry about the bullet with your name on it, worry about the fragmentation grenade addressed 'To Occupant'.

    My favorite gun is a Ruger P-85 which is a 9MM, hence RugerNiner.

    My former city of residence + my former badge number. I started using this handle at forums, auctions, etc., several years ago, and it stuck. So I still use it.

    Everyone calls me Will for some reason and since this is a gun board, I figured throwing a popular caliber on there would be alright to go with it.

    When I was in the Army, you had a M.O.S. (military occupation specialty). Mine was 11E40R8... 11 denoted combat arms, E (or echo) denoted Armor, 40 denoted position (10 loader, 20 driver, 30 gunner, & 40 tank commander), the R8 is an attachment denoting extra training for the M551 Sheridan tank... I got to shot BIG bullets! *G* .Mark

    My daughter bought me internet subscription for Xmas a couple of years ago, and she picked it. So I just kept it for most of my sites. Being an avid Elk hunter had a little to do with it I guess.

    I belong to the same social club as Saxon Pig and, since he introduced me to this board, I decided that I would be the antithesis to every good Saxon pig - a Norman dog (reffering to that world-changing event in 1066).

    very good neighbor friend of mine calls me doc sometimes but, doc is always used for a handle so i added cow to doc which kinda fits since i raise beef cattle and can do just about anything a vet can do anyways.
    think the neighbor calls me doc because he calls me when he needs a tractor overhauled,asks me guestion about farm chemicals for crops and ect guess you could call me jack of all trades master of nothing there are very few things i cant do i guess

    BlackRoses, FWIW, I already decided you were a rare & exotic beauty. Not that many women who take to shooting as you did. Classic is should change his handle to "Lucky!" My user name is one I picked out years ago when I first went on line. Suits my personality . . . I've been known to rock the boat of conventional wisdom once in a great while . . . .
