[mistergee]

......how did you come up with yours and what do they mean?
i know some are obvious....like a name and city or state(Jim of Pa, Chicago Ron,etc) or hobby related(aa battery, silver hunter, etc) but there are some that just defy explaination.
i'll start with mine......Mistergee.....well my name is George....nuff said

 

[Neogeo]

Mine has a small story,
I started out collecting fossils,but all I brought home at first were geofacts.So I used the handle of Geofactfan.
A good friend told me about this site(awsome btw!) and said some friends were on here too.So I went with NeoGeo
(New-Geo)
Well there is mine more or less lol...

 

[nhbenz]

I use the same name on eBay where my first transaction was to buy a new hood ornament for an old (1977) Mercedes. I'm in New Hampshire, thus the NH. And my name is Ben. I guess I was too lazy to come up with something new.

[godisnum1]

I think I've answered this on another thread in the past, but we'll give it a go again...

I created my s/n back in middle school as an e-mail address with Juno.
Unfortunately, "Godisnumber1" was taken (and caps couldn't be used)... so it turned into "godisnum1"
As for the meaning, I think it's evident... God Is Number 1 (in my life)

[Urban Prospector]

In my corner of the world I have roughly 13,000,000 neighbors. One mans trash being another mans treasure and treasure being wealth abandoned or hidden, my prospecting includes that clad penny on up to that ancient gold. Thus I am the Urban Prospector besides Megalopolis Scrounger just didn't grab me, and "ain'ttoproudtostoopforapenny" is too hard to type.

 

[silverswede]

I live in the Silver Valley of North Idaho, The color my sparce hair has become, and the Swede is ancestoral.

 

[bbqbull]

Before the movie Backdraft came to the theateres, my nickname as a firefighter was bull.
I like bbq and used to be strong as a bull in my younger days......bbq bull.

One of my Uncles called me Gator-Flea from the time I was a kid until He passed away in 2001.

 

[AU24K]

I love cats and once had 3 at the same time; Jack, Otis and Caeser. I would use a deeper voice to scold them when they would misbehave saying, "All right, you know who's your Daddy, and don't forget I'm the Top Cat". Worked like a charm!

PS. Great Topic!

 

[thrillathahunt]

Every single time I go detecting I am like a kid in a candy store! Just ask anyone who knows me.

I have had this problem for over 20 years.
