Screen name origins

[Snattlerake]

For some forgotten reason, I got interested in an animation show called Samurai Jack. Aku is the villain. Thought it appropriate.

I loved Samurai Jack!

 

[AV-8R]

I spent 26 years in the Marines and flew the AV-8B Harrier II+. Considering that as Marines we go through Naval flight school and are designated Naval Aviators... I thought AV-8R would kill two birds with one stone. AV-8R being an AV-8B pilot and AV-8R being an aviator.

 

[BallisticGuy]

I love internal and external ballistics. The cartridge, and projectile flight characteristics is a scary rabbit hole I have spent to much time exploring. I’m also a guy so there you go!

 

[dancer4life]

Mine is pretty self explanatory.
My wife and I are professional dancers, choreographers, judges and produce lots of shows.
We are 4 time World Dance Champions and have had our own business in OKC for the past 34 years.
I started when I was 16 years old and have been going strong for the past 43 years. No plans on stopping.
Hence the name, “Dancer4life”.

 

[leemozoid]

Way back about 40 years ago a college buddy of mine observed me do something he felt was incredibly lame + stupid and called me a "lame-o". This came from that famous movie "1941" starring John Belushi. Yes, that Spielberg directed Oscar snubbed classic. Anyway, Belushi crashed his P-40 in Hollywood. He reported the presence of Japanese submariners in the harbor to his rescuers. That star of the silver screen, Eddie Deezen asked if they were real Japanese and Belushi replied with the now famous retort, "No, lame-o. Wooden Japs." So, "lame-o" evolved into "Leemo" as one who has a history for lame and moronic behavior and then to "leemozoid" to indicate that this has been happening since the prehistoric era. Thus he called me an idiot since the beginning of time.

 

[clintbailey]

My original name here was trappercb, as in my initials and the fact I trapped a lot when I was younger (plus it was part of my original email address). Changed it to my name several years back, still that way...

 

[DreamingMan]

Used my screen name on several sites since @ 1990. It comes from a Neil Young song debuted in Dec. 1989, but not officially released till 1992.

If you read this far do yourself a favor and watch this rehearsal for SNL September 1989. Includes The Needle and The Damage Dane -> No More. Separate video includes Rockin' In The Free World. These two videos are so great! Especially RITFW (electric debut) is awesome. Strings shredded.

[Big House]

I spent 26 years in the Marines and flew the AV-8B Harrier II+. Considering that as Marines we go through Naval flight school and are designated Naval Aviators... I thought AV-8R would kill two birds with one stone. AV-8R being an AV-8B pilot and AV-8R being an aviator.

Where were you stationed around the end of '90s and early '00s? My BIL oversaw the maintenance for these planes.
