[QUOTE="mtnboomr, post: 4157523, member: 52310"] Back in the early '90s when online messaging and email was still a relatively new thing, I tried name after name only to find someone else already had it. I decided I should try to find something that no one else would think of. So, being from Oklahoma, I decided it should be something representing my home state. It eventually came down to our state reptile, the Collared Lizard, better known as a Mountain Boomer. By shortening the name to fit the limited data size of the time it became "mtnboomer." I had an account here in the past, but after a hiatus, I returned and because of an email account I could no longer access I has to re-register and my handle got changed to "mtnboomr." [/QUOTE]
