How did you come up with your screen name?

[dtail hunter]

Well folks, my screen name is fairly simple.  I live for the days in the woods and relish every moment I am there.  "Dtail hunter" is just what it implies.... I have chased many a deer tails in the woods over the years and actually the nickname was given to me by a bunch of fellow hunters who could not believe the amount of time I spend hunting and then after the season making my own smoked sausage, salami, and anything else I can use my smoker for.  By the way, I hunt all game including fowl.  I really enjoy trying the different recipes and hints to make the smoker more effective!  Keep 'em coming and keep up the forum!

In closing "WAR EAGLE!" to all of my Auburn University fans.

 

[binrat]

Well, my screen name stems back to when I worked many hours in various Army supply warehouses. "Binrat" was a nickname referred to the warehouse logistics personnel. Even when I progressed up through the ranks I still preferred to get away from the office and back into the warehouse.  

 

[armydogdoc]

I was an animal health care specialist in the army.  I have been armydogdoc since 1990 so it just made sense to bring the name here as well.

 

[maine yeti]

I'm from Maine and I'm as big as a yeti. I did a bunch of hiking on the AT and it became my trail name.

It means "Lets get the F/ck ought a here"!!! DD Mau

In the Deer Hunter movie the Vietcong solders were yelling DeeDee Mau in the Russian roulette scene. What's the meaning in that context? Hurry?

 

[dd mau]

I would have to see the scene to tell you the context but I would say yes to "hurry up " lets go , get it over with, The Vietnamese had a lot of slang that was used on a daily basis, and since the French were there for 20+ years you would get a mixture of French and Vietnamese slanged together. My nickname was "Dincqui Dau which I spelled Dinky Dau and that means crazy.

[pylons smokes]

I have been called Pylon since I was about 12, Lets just say I use to collect Pylons, and cut the tops off and put ash trays from the pool hall tables that use to have metal ash trays at the corners. They were a perfect fit. : ) I gave up that profession to say the least.

The power company, and phone company's didn't like my practice.
