What's the story behind your screen name?

And in keeping with the thread, mine is kind of obvious.

At the time our camera was a 20D, and my name is Roger.

The 20D has since died, but changing to "30droger" seemed like a bit of tail-chasing. Besides, the aim now is to get a 7D, but "7droger" sounds like a demotion.

Go for "007droger".

I use my real name for all Internet stuff because I want some levelnof accountability in what I post. I don't want to hide behind the anonymity of a pseudonym. Please don't go quoting this and post back that YOU aren't doing that for the same reason. That's just MY reason and im not accusing others of "hiding" anything. People here get very defensive over the least little thing! Thats just MY thought process. Sue Cassidy.

I have used mine for years. I chose it because I live in the US and New England.

Bwa ha ha. I just realized how defensive I just sounded. I'm just a pleasant idiot, what can I say?

I think it takes a large amount of courage to use your own real name when you post stuff on the net. Wish I had some!!

A large amount of courage, or a large amount of innocence.

Birdman59,

It all started when I was kidnapped from my London flat and imprisoned in a remote seaside village in Wales.....

I owned/built this truck between '01 and '09, so it became a huge part of my life (when I bought it, it was a bone stock, beat up gardening company truck)

It's a Lowrider Chevy S10...started using the LowriderS10 name years and years ago and it sorta stuck...I still use it on forums even though I sold it nearly a year ago haha

Nice truck! One of my friends has a Syclone over here in the UK. Very rare in the UK. Not sure how rare they are in the US though. Very, very fast trucks those Syclones!

WWWAAAAYYYYY back in the day, me and my friends were real new to this email phenomena, and chose "nicknames" for our football betting game. There was Rocket Man, The Professor, Captain Cover, and me, Chairman

When I got my original Yahoo address, Chairman was taken, so I added my favorite number and first initial of my last name. Chairman7w. Here I am.


Well, you asked!

Mine is simple. Normally forums or newsletter signups will give you a bunch of crap emails and I made some disposable email addresses and thus "my junk"

It just stucked for couple years alry.

My initials are G.E., and the aviation (I'm a pilot) phoenetic alphabet uses "Golf" for the letter "G", and "Echo" for the letter "E" . . . thus "golfecho" . . .

From Wyoming and ride a Yamaha FZ1(Fizzy)
