EBass Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 I was wondering what stories are behind everyones user name. Some people have their regular names, some have a catchy ring, some don't make any sense, and some are down right funny so what's your story?My real name is Eric. Back in the day my friends called me E. My favorite fish is a Bass. I think the rest is history. Now your turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Esboldt Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 I was once known as Bornofice within the walls of FM.com. I can't remember who said it to me many years ago, but they said I ice fished so much that I must have been "born of ice." It stuck in my head from there on out. I still try to live up to that handle.------------------Ray EsboldtMarCumStone Legacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icerookie Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Not a rookie as far as age (49) or fishing (fished all my life "in the summer"). Finaly went ice fishing about 3 or 4 years ago and of course, got hooked (so to speak). Gotta give my bro-in-law credit for getting me out there...he's been prodding me for 20 years to try it...glad I finaly gave in! Name is Paul and I "love" this site...great info, great topics...learned alot just from what I've read in the last few years.------------------Hey, you're bobber's down!!

Guest Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 I was still a Youth Pastor and Club Chaplain when at the 1999 Fishers of Men Fall Outing. One of our guests that year was a jolly blind fellow named John Bowler; When he found out I prefer to fish for Bass immediatlely dubbed me The Basspastor and the moniker stuck even though I am no longer doing ministry as such.

merc Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Back in my younger days, much younger, I played a lot of softball and was actually pretty quick. My friends stared calling me mercury. Till this day when they see me they still call me "merc". Now I can't even run to the fridge for a beer!! PS, just a coincidence but I actually have a merc motor on the boat.

Piker Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Did you here that story about how the internet domain name "men.com" sold for a couple million dollars or something the other day. That's what I did, picked a name hoping I could sell it... Just kidding, I don't know why I picked Piker. I like the Pikers, but don't fish for them much any more.Oh and, Vikes in '04!!
