Well I'm boring too but I got so wrapped up (my wife says wrapped too tight) in the pc revolution that my whole outlook began to revolve around my hobby, PC's.
Oh and Sting. I'm really embarrassed. Thanks a lot. I've been telling everyone I meet that I reguarly communicate with the man from the Police and the Blue Turtle.
Geeeeeeeeez! At least let a guy know you're just an average guy from Texas no less.

Familiar story here:
While trying to come up with a user name for my very first online venture, I could not for the life of me come up with anything that matched my personality. Then it hit me! I have a 1975 Harley-Davidson Model FL. So, I figured that it was an OLDFL... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
So, now my new personna was born. That was 13 years ago, and it is still with me today... Geez, I've only known my wife for 9 years!! haha

I'm only here for the beer!!!
Mine is simple, if A=1 then
P=16
H=8
I=9
L=12
G=7
O=7
Now if you add those numbers together then you get 67, then by adding the 6 to the 7 you get 13, add the 1 to the 3 and we are now at 4, then all I needed to do was divide that by 2 and you reach 2 which is the amount of fingers that I use to type with.
I'm an auto tech, so when I needed an "alias" I first tried "wrench", which of course was taken, so I went for Digital Volt Ohm Meter, otherwise known as a DVOM.

Per Ardua Ad Astra
I owned a green Autocar (truck) in the oilfield which was slow but dependable. I called it the Greengoose. Then the name rubbed off on me and became my CB handle also. The name is part of me now and is known in all the lower forty eight. Now known wordwide, thanks to the internet.
I have been called worse....... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/

Well, this is my first trip into this thread. I knew it sounded OT and might "disappear", so I didn't bother. But the post count was getting kind of large so here I am.
Ghouldini -
Now you Michigan/Ohio/Pennsylvania types may recall this dude, Here's his web site going by the name of The Ghoul, who was a bad movie host doing all kinds of weird stuff between the movie and the commercials. He was big in Detroit, Cleveland, and Philadelphia. And is still on the air in Cleveland. He had many Aliases that made up his acts. Some you will see referenced at his site. One (not referenced) is "Ghouldini" which was his moniker for an occasional skit about a "Carsoni" knock off where he did things like Houdini and that Super Dave idiot, but I don't recall him actually doing a bit where he gave the answer before he opened the envelope with the question like Carson did. He did wear a hat like Johnny did. That name stuck in my head when I was looking for an eBay user name to use but all the others I came up with were taken already. That was before I came here. I later got me a couple of aliases to use around the web.
I grew up watching that fool in the 70's so now I am demented.
