Mine is the same name I use for everything. Made it when I was 15. Been my email @ aol. JT are my initials and wanted some numbers that didn't have a direct relation to me (zip, phone, house........) Actually 371 came from the size of my new chainsaw. Husqvana 371XP, owners manual was sitting by the computer. Yeah have had it since I was 15.

So there you have it, there is rednecks in NY.
Actually I'm upstate-central NY.

I had to put some thought into mine because I normally go by danfordman, even the first time I signed up for FTE back int the 90's. but since it was taken after being out of the forums for a couple of years and rejoining I just decided to use my Daily Driver as my screen name. I call it my 60 Rat Rod

I am a former underground coal mining engineer and production supervisor.
The regulations require the supervisor to mark areas safe with your initials, time and date.
I usually was assigned bad equipment, bad crews or bad conditions because I was the engineer.
So I always signed my initials with my last name .

Name is Otto. Years ago I had an "incident" with a Thompson . I put it on Full Auto when we were pulling a target @ sea. It was on its way up and over, few guys started running, Gunners mate got pissed. From then on I was called "Ottomatic"

Now that s a good way to get a nickname. I can just see them scatter. Whatever happened to "a three round burst".

One of my friends started to call me Dirty, due to my last name, and the name just stuck from then on. I try to use it for all forums, Xbox and such, so if you see it it is probably me.

I thought you were older than that, I didnt know you were only a year older than me. I would have guessed at least 25.
