Lee Stearns April 2, 2004 Share April 2, 2004 No secrets here, Though Grav would like me to change my avatar to Xenia killer. USMC retired, diver, pilot, doing belway banditry as defense consultant. Old UGF marine keeper, getting back in because of the reef and corals aspects of the hobby now, would like to raise some bangais and some clowns- unfortunately the more difficult clowns wil be my first project by happening onto a chancce at some GBMCs- Really enjoy seeing other member's tank set ups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelg April 2, 2004 Share April 2, 2004 Mine is pretty obvious. :D The avatar is the right eye of horus- an egyptian god. All kinds of mythology and symbolism represented in it.

eddi April 2, 2004 Share April 2, 2004 All the things I am usually called I can't use as a user name, hence the use of my proper name. I was born and raised in Italy, hence my avatar. Of course no one knew that because I have absolutely no accent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ruh Roh April 2, 2004 Share April 2, 2004 <-- Ruh Roh was sort of a more interesting way of saying uh oh for me. While it fits into the scooby (or astro from jetson's *actually rut roh I guess*) It wasn't the reason I selected it. It is my online name in most places now. I am a mech engineer, born and raised in southern CA, transplanted to the DC area for a job. Grew up in a small town where we made trouble to keep ourselves entertained, hence.. ruh roh. Or, as Scooby says.. Ruh Roh Raggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xeon April 2, 2004 Share April 2, 2004 xeon was a user name I picked out years ago. At the time it was a new Intel chip that I thought might make for an obsure user name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caribbean Jake April 5, 2004 Share April 5, 2004 Dad was in the Navy stationed in Puerto Rico, nice place to SCUBA by the way. It has a natural reef coral santuarium in the north shore near San Juan, and we "hop" from island to island and visited almost all except for three, Trinidad, Aruba and Barlovento. Although I was raised mainly in Puerto Rico I consider myself from the all over Carribean, and proud of it. Will love to go back when retired.

OUsnakebyte April 5, 2004 Share April 5, 2004 Have to take mine in two parts, well three maybe: OU - Oklahoma University, my alma mater for both undergrad and grad school. Sooner born and Sooner bred... (both parents and my grandfather, as well as a large majority of my family that I won't bore you all by listing, are all Sooners). I transplanted here to DC just last June... snakebyte - reptiles, snakes in particular, are/were my first passion (before I entered into this money-sucking obsession we all so blindly refer to as a 'hobby'...), with a sort of 'emphasis' in herpetology as an undergrad. The 'byte' part is just as in computer byte and is meant as a play on words... instead of snakebite (of which, yes I have received a few...), since it's my electronic name... Boomer Sooner!!!

Gatortailale April 5, 2004 Share April 5, 2004 I went to Allegheny College, in Meadville, PA. I played football. My Junior year I was starting left OT. We won the Div. III title that year (1990). Got my 15 minutes of fame playing in the Stagg bowl on ESPN. Gator part is from Allegheny College's mascot - kinda funny to think of alligators in NW PA. Avatar is Allegheny's mascot / logo for athletic teams. I found a T-shirt that had a logo that said Gatortail Ale with motto: it's the swamp water that makes it taste good. Just adopted it cause it's different and I like to tell tall tales with friends while drinking down a few cold ones. [beer2] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
