Ok, so this is for anyone who doesn't mind saying how they came up with their handles. Let's start with me.
Mine is the name of a robot warrior from an old 50's sci-fi movie that I saw when I was about 10. I don't remember what the movie was called but the story was that this robot warrior that was in a battle in the future and somehow got sent back in time. In the movie the people from our time encountered him and could not understand what it was saying. Someone figured out that it was speaking english but at a much higher speed. So he taped the robot and slowed it down to reveal what it was saying, then he play it back at slow speed to the robot and it learned to speak slower. It turned out what it was saying was it's name, rank and serial #. " I am Quarlow, smtmto". I don't know why this has stuck in my head since I was a kid but it did.
I'm not very creative. My handle is my name. It's easier to remember when one's getting old.
When I was a little kid, I had a black and white dog. I named it Spot. Not much imagination here. Now, we have a Bengal cat. I named it Spot. Gee, maybe that should have been my handle. ;D ;D Of course, Data on Startrek TNG named his cat Spot too. Not a bad name.
I own a two-way radio communication store.
Mike
When I got to the door of the Forum it was the only nick I could afford.
I wanted to be called ArnieM but they told me some guy named Spot already ask for that one.
Quarlow,
That sounds like an early episode of twilight zone. It was like an early version of the Terminator.

Well... I'm a Canadian living in the UK.... need I say more?
I'm a singer with a Falsetto voice, maybe you've heard one of my tunes..."Tiptoe Through the Tulips". Oh wait, that means I'm deceased. Okay, this one's gonna take a little longer.
Back in High School, I was usually known as "Bubba", but the Guidance Counselor that arrived during my Junior year, decided to call me Tiny. Fast forward a few years (graduated in '88) to July of '94 when I started racing. Night of my second race I went to the local bar right near the track after we got done racin'. Sat with my cousin and a friend of his, and at the next table was the track PA announcer. Up until this time, I was known as "The Big Boy from (my hometown)". One way or another we got to talking and decided he needed a nickname to call me on the track, and I brought up both nicknames I had in school, and he decided to run with "Tiny Tim". Made for some interesting snippets in race calling, as I found some creative ways to get around the track. :D
Been using that name ever since, and I think more people know me by "Tiny" than do as "Tim". ;D
Kewl story TT. ;D
Mine came from a Van Halen album but has more to do with cooking and eating good food than the album. This is the only place I use it, for now.
O U 8 1 2
Oh You Ate One Too
Eddie Rocks !
OU812 is the eighth album by American hard rock band Van Halen, released in 1988. The album title is allegedly a joke on Van Halen's previous lead singer David Lee Roth's 1986 album Eat 'Em and Smile (OU812 translates phonetically to "Oh, you ate one too?"). However, "OU812" was also seen in the 70s sitcom Taxi written on a wall.[1] Furthermore, "OU812" is the license plate on the red Ferrari that Cheech and Chong drive in Cheech & Chong's Next Movie (released in 1980).

The Caney Fork is my "home" flyfishing waters. Years ago, I first started my forum career by annoying people with my posts on some local fly fishing forums. When I signed up for those forums, tried to do caneyforkflyfisher, or other such Caney(fill in the blank) handles, but they were all taken. A scud is a shrimp-like fresh-water crustacean very prevalent on the grassier sections of the Caney Fork River. Caneyscud wes the first "Caney" handle I ran across that wasn't already taken - so I used it. And I seldom use scud flies to fish, except this time of the year. Dying or dead scuds turn orangish, and using an orange scud can be very fruitful this time of the year. A line drawing of a scud is below with flies that imitate. The top I usually tie more gray, but the bottom one is the orange one that is good this time of year. I like tying them pleasingly plump and hunch-backed - sorta like me!

Slamdunk here. Two reasons for my name.
Former Basketball player - pretty good in high school, should have looked into university/college scholarships - the other four starting players did and got them, but my plans were elsewhere - and played two - three times a week with a mixed aged group until I was 50-ish when I went out one night and broke 2 fingers on a defensive arrangement. Haven't played since that mishap, but still love the game.
Also, and perhaps more long lasting,,,,
Sometimes in life things are hard, seemingly unattainable, but with hard work, who knows?? but at other times, well, it's a Slamdunk, easy as heck!! Go figure!! So, that's my philosophy of life, hence my name.
And that brings me to smoking!! Some of the recipes, instructions, equipment seem easy! The pics that people post here, and the advice and experience shared, seem sometimes to be insurmountable but, with practice and patience and experimenting, result in GREAT belly satisfying results!!

Awesome.
In a big social studies class back at Purdue, we were discussing man / woman relationships and talking about romantic evening. When I described my perfect evening, my BIG professor from NYC said; "Hady you are a Hopeless Romantic". I replied; Not hopless but rather HOPEFULL.
For the rest of the semester, no one called me Hady, and hopefull romantic stuck.

When I hit 40 I decided to take the bull by the horns and to go from being an out of shape tub of lard to a lean, in shape, machine so to speak. I've never been a runner due to bad knees (skiing) so took up bike riding. I bought myself a decent Bianchi and started riding to work. Didn't want to try too much too soon. After a year I was making real progress and could finally keep up with the Mormon lads riding around town on their missions. Things progressed further, I joined a local bike club and did a lot more riding. Finally, after 2.5 years I thought my bike was starting to become a limiting factor so I splashed out for an expensive, custom made Japanese bike, a 3RENSHO. They were beautifully built in those days - not like later. After dropping 2K on a bike I told myself that I'd better get serious. I did. 1800 road miles a month, built my own wheels, sew up tires, the entire 27 feet. I looked like a gulag refugee, could do 100 miles of Sierra foothills in under just over 4 hours, resting pulse of 41 and BP of 78/36 (got dizzy standing up). Not bad for a then 46 year old (reverse the numbers today). Soooo, that's a long winded version of 3RENSHO.
Man just reading that makes me tired ;D
Wow 100 miles in 4 hr through the foot hills, impressive.
Very impressive 3rensho.

Wow!!!
That is a impressive story. Thanks for sharing.
Pretty simple here. I'm half a bubble above perfect!!!!! Actually I enjoy hunting deer if you haven't noticed the Avatar. I have 5 tenpoint racks hanging in my office so tenpoint 5

Quarlow,
Thanks for starting this thread. I was wishing for the same information.
Pachanga is a South Texas Mexican slang word meaning a wild rowdy fiesta (party) which usually involves barbeque, music, family (including the little ones and dogs), compadres and outdoor cooking.
My home is Pachanga central. I have a small house on a spoil island on the intercoastal waterway 28 miles south of Corpus Christi by boat; Pachanga Dos. My boat is Pachanga Agua (water).
Friends say it fits me like a glove.
As used in a sentence:
We are throwing a Pachanga this weekend. I'll supply the meat. You bring the Cerveza. And not that ++*xx^% skunky stuff you brought last time, you cheap *x**^%%%**. Lone Star longnecks will be fine.
Good luck and may all your Pachangas be full of fun and food.

Hey saivenkat,
You should hook up with stone112 from Bangladesh. His first name is Remon. His weblink at the bottom of his only post to this forum on October 16, 2009 takes you to the exact same page dated 9/27/09 about Dig Bands Store, just like yours. Should be easy to contact him since both of your email addresses are from gmail.

Aces-n-eights - the Deadman's Hand - and no i don't have a death wish! I took my handle from some local lore.
We used to live in South Dakota, near Deadwood. In the late 1800's there was a gold rush in the Black Hills and Wild Bill Hickok found it was easier to make money at the the poker table rather than digging it out of the ground. One day he went into Saloon Number 10 to play but the only seat had his back to the door. He didn't like that, but wanted to play so took the seat. Jack McCall saw Hickok in the saloon and, because of some earlier conflict, shot Hickok in the back of the head, killing him. Wild Bill was holding two pairs - black aces and black eights - the identity of the kicker has been lost.
After a shootout with some locals, McCall fled the area and was later caught across the state. A quick trial resulted in finding him guilty and he was hanged.
This shootout is re-enacted daily during the summer months in Deadwood today. Saloon Number 10 exists in Deadwood, altho it's been rebuilt in a slightly different location after burning down in a big fire that claimed many original Deadwood buildings.

FLorida recumBENT bicycle RIDER - the handle started on geocaching.com - I figured I'd keep the same one....
Although I'm on here more than geocaching.com and do more smoking than geocaching.
3rensho,
You're story sounds eerily similar to mine, and how I ended up with more bikes than cars.
FlBentRider,
I am happy to know where you got your handle. I imagined a Cowboy who had a horrible crippling accident on a horse.
My uncle Frank, who has passed away, was the foreman of one or the larger ranches in Texas. He was a real cowboy. He had a dark leathery completion except when he took his cowboy hat off. His forehead was a ghostly white stripe.
He came to my brother's office who is in orthopedics one day. One knee was swelled so large his jeans (Frank only wore jeans except to church and funerals) were slit to fit; large cantaloupe size. My brother asked how it happened. Frank said that he was in the cattle chute on a horse and a cow was determined to back up. There wasn't enough room in the chute for horse, rider and cow to pass so something had to give. It was his knee.
My brother asked when it happened. Frank said three weeks ago. Why had he waited so long to come in for xrays and an exam? Frank said simply, "We were in the middle of a roundup, son." Well, how did you get on your horse? The reply was "The same way I got off."
How was that? "I had two cowboys lift me up on the tailgate of the pickup in the morning and bring the horse next to me. I would swing my good leg over while they held me. Then I didn't get off the horse until dark." He did that for three weeks straight.
He was one tough cowboy.
Good luck and slow smoking,
Pachnga

I had my own karate school for years when I lived in Texas so my buddies called me ronbo(the movie Rambo was popular back then), then I got transferred to Louisiana and I changed it to ronbeaux. After a bunch of injuries in full contact I decided I would rather cook. My team name is RonbeauxQ. Oddly enough, I'm a Safety Professional by trade??????????

My handle comes from a tool I use underground to mend damaged hoses. I'm a hard rock miner working in the deepest nickel mine in North America. I should rephrase that I haven't been working for a while I have been on strike for a year now, I hope it ends soon. >:(

AKA: Stlthy1 for my 20 years working on the B-2 Bomber ;D ....... SHHHHHHHHH ITS A SECRET ;D
Like FLBentRider I too brought mine over from Geocaching.com it's pretty much what I do. The avatar is an MLRS launch.
I went with EZ Smoker because I like to eat a lot more than I like to cook. So I tend to look for the good recipes that are easy to do. You know, like:
Rub the brisket
Put it in smoker
FTC
Eat it
Though I will take more steps if they'll improve the finished product. Really good food is the goal.
OldHickory was the nickname of President Andrew Jackson from Tennessee, which is where I am from. Probably a little to do with the fact that I smoke mainly with Hickory. ;)
Not very creative on mine - my name, but it can be interpreted as Kenny G the saxaphone player (I used to play the sax in high school). Who knows though maybe a change my pic to the pig from H E double hockey sticks.
My handle come from my nickname that all my friends have for me....
I've posted before but like Kevin, my handle is my name. Also not very creative here - except with some food.
I just like to sail. I have been sailing for 40 years and used to race. Got to old then started to race remote control 1 meter sailboats. That got just way too expensive with all of the traveling to regattas so I gave it up. I no longer own a boat and plan to keep it that way. I can always hitch a ride with others and drink their beer and let them clean the boat. ;D
Pretty easy. Initals and I am a huge Aggie, since it took five years of my life and every penny I had to get through there.
Well I wasn't very creative when I signed up. It's what I do (or at least try to do) for a living, trading in capital markets - buy low, sell high, not necessarily in that order.
Sailor - Know what you mean. My last boat was a Sabre 28. It got kind of expensive for the slip and winter storage. Plus, the marina was about an hour from home. It got to be too much.
But I'll tell you one thing. I was a kind of work-a-holic. Getting out on that boat for the weekend totally took my mind off of work. Peaceful.
Arnie....you got that right. The best boat that I ever owned was a Newport 27. It was a cruiser and I loved to work on the bright work on the boat. I would go out on Friday and come back late Sunday. You know the difference between a racer and a cruiser? Cruisers never spill their beer. LOL....if you sail even while cruising and another boat is around you have a race even if you don't admit it. I would love to run up on another cruiser and turn the wench giving a clicking sound and then watch the skipper jump and grab the jib sheet and start wenching it in. ;D

I've always loved the water (but have never sailed) and I got a laugh out of your quote. That's competiveness and it's good in anything!
Sailor - I don't want to drag this thread OT so I'll send you a PM and we can swap sailing stories ;D

My wifie thinks I have a problem. ;D
I think I now know who I want to send my 1 terabyte USB drive too next? It's not big enough! ???
CRG, I didn't seen any Skynyrd in there!!!
Look under L for Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Ronnie (oldest) Donnie and Johnny Van Zant
Ronnie was one of the original members of LZ and died in the plane crash.
Donnie is lead guitar and singer for 38 Special.
Johnny had a band called the Johnny Van Zant Band.
When Ronnie died they finally talked Johnny into taking over his brother spot.
I saw Donnie (38 Special) several years ago at Big Spring Jam here in Huntsville Al. It was the best outdoor concert I've seen in 20-30 years. They gave it all!
I also say Lynyrd Skynyrd outdoors in about 74-75 with 3 Dog Night. Although I don't remember very much about it?
There are alot of Concerts I don't remember much about. ;D
I lost my car at a Doobie Brothers concert one time! I just knew it was on isle B. ??
We went to a Doobie Brothers concert up a few years ago. It was outdoors. We actually had chairs and it was spittin' distance to the stage. Fantastic.
You would never guess it but I'm a vikings fan. Ahh, not in a million years.
I've been a bears fan ever since I've been a little kid and visited the windy city and drove past Soldiers Stadium.
Hoping for a good year with our trades.
Just buggin CRG, I knew you'd have some. Didn't know there was 2 brothers that replaced the original. Learn sumpin new every day.
Saw Skynyrd in '91 I think. I must have about 15 or 16. Free bird went on for about 20 minutes. Those dudes can solo.
Guess I will show my age, but I'm so friggen old I remember a Beach Boys concert at a Coliseum where seating in the center area was just folding chairs. I may be forgetting more than I remember, but the crowd
was enraged when they found out that Brian Wilson had a stand-in. Chairs started launching towards the stage, I caught one in the back of my head. What fun! The replacement guy nailed every song. He was Glen Campbell. And yes, I had long hair, and I freely admit I was at Woodstock. I feel better now!!!
I'm old enough for woodstockbut didn't make that one.
Wish I would have.
I did go to the Crossroads Festival (3 days) at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas a few years back.
And then there was the Monterey Jazz Festival in the late 70's. That one is all a blur!!!
Hippies!!! Well, maybe not by todays standards. What with all the meat and smokin and wood burnin and stuff... I'd give my left *@%$ to be able to go back in time and see some of those bands play live when the where just starting out. Plus it sounds like you guys had some pretty good acid back then ;)
All fond memories......and then we grow up. Most find that long term memory is retained much longer than short term. Sometimes 40 years ago is sharper than yesterday. I have checked wit professionals and they say this is true. I can deal with it.
QuoteI can always hitch a ride with others and drink their beer and let them clean the boat.
Sailor--I never want you to have a conversation with my wife--you'd give her ideas about selling the boat! My name is simply a play on my first and last initials in my name.

NOW, where I was from, we had these things we put on our feet. We called them BOOTS. They had pointy toes and we knew how to use them. It's what we did with hippies. It was our sport! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D The Beatles were commies!!!
got mine from an old commercial of this little old lady ordering a hamburger , it gets delivered open faced and she asks where's da beef, my response was ... that is what you get when you dont deal with the beefman ! ! ! !

Caney, have you ever played a Hank Williams record backwards? Spooky! ;D
Part of mine (Nuge) was my nickname all through school. I was a big Ted Nugent fan and also the spelling of my last name looks somewhat similar to Nugent and it isn't spelled anything like it sounds. Spelled Neutgens and sounds like "Nite-kins". The first part (TT) came from my time spent on a car forum when I was a huge Audi TT fan and owner. Then I got married, got rid of the car for an SUV and a commuter and now my wife has all sorts of nick-names for me, none of which are pleasant or endearing.

Jiggerjams is two nicknames I grew up with that I rolled into one. Jigger was a nickname given to me because I was a beer drinker that developed a passion for whiskey shooters or known up here as jiggers (shot glass) of whiskey. Jams is another nick name I acquired, but not sure why. My name is James or when younger Jamie so my only thoughts is that Jams rolls off the tongue easier.
It is definitely jigger weather today Burrr!!
It was cool reading the interesting facts of many forum members. Thanks for sharing.

Well mine is a combo of now living in Wyoming and my uncle when i was a kid called me DUKE OF EARL . Grown up and he has never stopped .My name is Cody so ???
Well according to (wikipedia) found by searching dead mans hand I found the kicker is claimed to be the Queen of clubs. But if you read on into the storey it was said the fifth card was not drew yet.
Mine is from hunting all the time. I am a bow hunter so I spend allot of time in camo in the filed sneaking in and out quiet as a ghost trying to be unseen or heard by any deer or turkey. Kinda lame but I was told it fit me and it stuck.
When I signed up for this forum I thought Now that I am retired and purchased a bradley smoker it would be time for BS (Bradley smoker) After I saw the name I picked online I was not sure people would think of BS as Bradley smoker. What did you think?
I don't think you can have one without the other ;D :D
BS works for me anyway you take it. Lots of BS around here (both ways) ;D
Well mine is nothing fancy nor does it sound cool, I just used my initials. Years ago I joined a few forums and used them there, since then I run into folks from other sites I have joined cause they recognize TMB from the other sites (figure not to many folks have those 3 initials).
At one time I went by lil' Moose cause my friend Rick was "Moose" and he stood 6' 9" and was a 325 or so in weight and I was
lil' Moose cause I hung with him like a brother (and kept me from getting into bar fights)!

I'm just one letter away, TLB
My dad gave me the nickname "Moose" several years ago since I was a bigger than average kid (not tall, just round)...lol. In recent years, with online gaming I joined a gaming clan "OMC" which stands for "Old Man Clan" and you have to be at least 30 years old to join it. So I just came up with OMC-MOOSE. Simple not much pizzazz.
I'm a locksmith for a school district of about 30 different schools, thats a whole bunch of doors!! I am the one source for keys, so a lot of people at work call me Keymaster :D
My initials. :)
Well, after a long hiatus, I am finally back.
My name is Michelle and my dad used to call me "Moe" (my little sister is Lucy and brother is Charles and he would call all of us Moe, Curly and Larry after the 3 stooges)
And since this is a.....wait for it.....lol....a forum on Bradley smokers.....it just seemed logical.
I just looked at my Kelpie Cow dog and bamm Kelpiedg not much thought just first thing that came to mind.

Test Rocket, I am not saying this to be an ass just an Artilleryman, your pic is a HIMARS, same concept as an MLRS just on a truck and a few pods short. Red Leg For Ever.
Nickname from the Navy. A corruption of my last name, Drouillard (don't ask me), my fondness for dragons, a liking for all black and rare meat, Dracul became Drac.
