Growing up my buddies and I alwasys watched Top Gun. When we got motorcycles, I wanted a personal tag. Since my bike is black, I dubbed it "MAVERIK". "Maverick" is too many letters. "03" is the year bike I have. I use this name with most everything now.

I went to Georgia Southern Univeristy and our great Coach that brough back football in the 1980's and won 3 national championship was Erk Russell. Has nothing to do with my Mustang, just paying some honor to a great coach, motivator and man.

Right now mine is simply referred to as "The Mustang". However, I do recall that when I brought it home the typical response I got from my wife and friends was "You paid how much for that 'Piece of #@!%'." I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Edit: Guess I should have read the question better. My login name, 109JB, is the registration number of the airplane I built, N109JB.

Been going by the nick Adrenolin for at least 15 years now or more. I used to do a lot of sports and was pretty crazy back in the day. Jumping out of perfectly good air planes, break falls repeatedly off house roof, rock climbing, martial arts, triathlons, cross-country bicycle rides, etc. Started in with computers and online back in 90/91 and a good friend set me up with the nick Adrenolin.. purposely mistyped. Said it fits since I never stopped and was half crazy. Been using it since.

I've tamed down a bit over the years but I'm 37 going on 19 and young at heart forever.

I've used "Starfury" as part of my online aliases just about as long as I've been using the internet. I pulled it out of Babylon 5 (sci-fi tv show). I'm a nerd, I know.

I tried to use "Tad H." (my name), like I do in the Fomoco forum, but this site won't let you use spaces in your name=/

Mine should be fairly obvious

mine stemmed from my Xbox Live account name on the OG Xbox on Halo 2. I couldnt think of a name, and had just gotten back from Vegas for my cousins wedding, where i had bought a pair of fuzzy dice, thought about it, and said, **** it, Fuzzydicerule it is

lol, however, nowadays, since i couldnt reuse it, or get the password, my XBL name is Mach1969

Well I got my screen name by being totally original and creative!

One day I had some questions about converting a perfectly good 6 cylinder Mustang to a V-8, I "stopped in" to ask them and simply used my initials for a screen name,,,, never even coming close to imagining that I would at some point submit in excess of 3,000 posts.....

Sometimes I think aboutchanging my screen name to something more original, but then I remind myself that I need to make sure that othermembersdon'tknow that I am justtoo cool for school....or elseI might end up just totally dominating the entire section....[8D]

Anyway, I think I want to be called MrTaco now.....
