i have been wondering what makes someone pick a screen name.  some of them are very cryptic, and some have a lot of meaning, others are self-explanatory (KMA).  mine is from a "kids in the hall" skit from about 10 years ago that i thought was funny as hell "and remember son, i've got quiet shoes", drunken father to his son, called "daddy drank".

$6.00 and not one cent more!

First computer password my brother and I had(20+ years ago, when a 20 MEG hard drive was freakin' huge and running at 12mhz in turbo mode was smokin'!)

Mine is my login id at work.  I have so many logins that I try to keep them all the same.
It's my initials, but someone else already had it hence the 2.

well the 223 should be sorta obvious, and it's also my clan name for Counterstrike.
Buckaroo comes from an old Amiga video game I had, "Fighter Bomber". Buckaroo was a cheat code and if you used it for your callsign, you had unlimited ammo. I've never been any other name in any of the games I play. Seemed natural to use it here.....

I'm a real estate entrepreneur.Been at it full time for close to 7 years now. I'm always thinking of new ways to build Capital for new business ventures and guns. We live in the strongest nation in the world. This nation is built on the Capitalist mentality where everybody has the freedom to be anything they want to be. Where else in the world could you go and have such Freedom?

Well I use to go by Glock Cop, because I use to be a cop and Glocks were my all time favorite pistol.  On Oct 26th 2000 I was almost killed in the line of duty and weather it be me reminding myself that I came through it, or my own way of protesting against the man who tried to take my life, I added the "lives".  These days I'm not the guy I one was, I am something much more civil and humane.......But hell, we all have to remember where we came from if we want to get where were going to.

schv= Small/Caliber/High/Velocity

The concept behind the developement of the AR-15.

That a small caliber projectile traveling at a high velocity would do more damage than a larger slower projectile.

My Army Security Agency code name circa 1966.

I chose the name "flash" because several young ladies I dated in high school gave me that nickname.  They wouldn't tell me why but I can guess.

Being part Creek Indian I wanted to use the family name of "Two-Dogs-Fucking" but that name was already taken.

Next I wanted "subslr" but that name was also taken so I added a couple of 5's and there you have it.

Like most of you,I hung around here for a while getting the feel of the place.
When the day came that I figured I should log in I was faced with the question of a log in name.
It was just after Christmas,and as I was wondering WTF was I gonna use for a name,I happened to see the Christmas card another Khe Sanh Bro had sent me.
For over 20 years this Brother has sent a card addressed to me as 'Khe Sanh Don' and then the rest of my address.
No last name or nothing.
But they have always gotten here.
Some things just seem to jump out at you.
I was going to use my last call sign but now I get to save that for another time.

When I first started posting here I went by "PAPA-101", then I switched to MinuteMan3. PAPA-101 refers to the maintance team I was on in the Air-Force, and Minuteman 3 refers to the MinuteMan3 Nuclear Missle Silos that I did maintance on while in the Air-Force. I was assigned to the 341stField Miisle Maintance Squadron at Malmstrom AirForceBase, GreatFalls, Montana. Was in FMT/PMT maintance shop.

My screen name comes from L. Ron Hubbard's book "Battlefield Earth." It is the name of the stories hero.

I think he (Jonnie, the hero) sums up the human condition very well. Though the human race is driven to near extinction Jonnie uses his intelligence to manipulate the conquerors and unite what is left of humanity to reclaim Earth as their own.

Intelligence, courage, honesty. The very best qualities of the human race.

Mine was a total lack of imagination the night I signed up. I had just got an AR10 and had an AR15 on the way....hence

I have been planning on changing it, but decided to wait until, my 2002 LEGP arrives and BRC is a done deal.
