mcdandc 0 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 As I browse the forum, I can't help noticing the creative screennames...some are obvious (like mine for instance, my actual name), but others, not so much. So, what does yours mean? Long, long ago, I ventured into the capitalist world as a remodeling contractor. Mcdandc was my logo for Mc*** Design and Construction.

McGyver 0 Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 I carried a Victorinox Swiss Champ and a Leatherman back in high school - late 80's, and could fix most things with the two. A friend dubbed me "MacGyver." However, being part Irish and having the middle name of McDowell, I chose to spell it without the a. Hence McGyver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rastamanila 313 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 .......I lived in south Louisiana for a number of years, and was adopted into that particular culture by the local New Orleans 'yats I was fortunate enough to meet ! Worked and played with a lot of Cajun (Acadian) crazies all over south LA. for years..........."Jeaux" is the south Louisiana version of "Joe", and "E" is my last name initial. (Lived in Wisconsin and worked in Chicago for many years after that, but the folks up there heard the southern accent and automatically deducted about 30 I.Q. points from me.......fortunately, they CAN be educated to the contrary....) (Who's the ones that are ignorant?? Look at their gun laws in Illinois & Wisconsin........... Jeez.........) I now live back in Arkansas, seen described in this forum as the "armpit of america", which I really won't argue........... but at least we also have the right to legally hang large caliber handguns under our armpits. Also, I'm close enough to Tony's shop to drive over and place my order in person......Good enough for me !!! Great forum !!! I'm learning a lot!! "Hey Jeaux...Where you going with that gun in your hand?..." ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fxhart 14 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Well mine is pretty self explanatory. Being a firearms instructor at a range, I started making reference to guns being 'tacticool' because of all the crazy shit people would add to them. I would even warn people of being 'tacticool' when purchasing their first gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

baliblaster 0 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I love butterfly knives,which are more properly called balisongs.Therefore if you are really good at flipping one,i am not,you should be able to call yourself the BALIBLASTER! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Diesel42 7 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 My other hobby is old Toyota Land Cruisers. Diesel42 refers to a model BJ42, a short wheel based truck built in the 70's. It looks like a jeep on steroids. ;-) Nick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I used to play with those things, their kinda hypnotic when you get a good routine going real fast. If you ever decide to practice (being able to open mine quicker than a switchblade was enough to deter a couple of altercations in my youth. luckily I didn't get shot.) remember a few things, 1. Only the BACK of the blade should be able to touch your hand. 2. DON'T practice while drunk. 3. DON'T practice close to your friends. 4. DON'T practice next to your dog, kid, cat, or anything/one that wouldn't appreciate having a knife thrown at it or them. 5. ABSOLUTLY NEVER bring a knife to a gunfight!!!!!!!! 6. If you pull a knife out, a person with their C.H.L. can now LEGALLY shoot you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
unclejake 428 Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Mine started when I took a friend up to the family farm for a visit. When all the little nieces and nephews saw my truck pull up, they would come out running up to me screaming UNCLE JAKE UNCLE JAKE!! Well, they have grown up now and have provided many great nieces and nephews, but the name has stuck. I'm kinda proud of it as I was dubbed the KOOL uncle! LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites

49north 7 Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 49north means I am closer to our Canadian brothers than most Americans. I was raised on the mexican border, or frontier as we fondly call it, and have moved as far north as possible in the lower 48. I guess Alaska would be the logical next move.

Is 'Tacticool' the screen name of some else on here? Yikes I didn't know that! Maybe I should change mine. I thought I was being so clever, HA! Shows what I know.
