Fellow poster David Zen noticed I was playing around with my avatar, so he sent me the bear-at-the-urinal picture. |

Expert 690 Rocky Hill, Connecticut | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym I have had this nickname since I was about 10. In Boy Scouts we were camping and the joke of the "day" was to call people who were a little slow at responding Hud (backwards for Duh). Since I have always been one to think before I speak I began to get labeled as Duh in Scouts. Well a long story short the older scouts gave out NICK names at summer camp that year, and well I became HudNick. It has stuck w/ me ever since. I tend to use it for all the forums that I am on, as I can never remember which user ID I have used (Hmmm. maybe the Duh thing has some credence after all :-O ). That's my story and i'm stickin to it! Adios Dave |

Extreme Veteran 381 Peoria, Arizona | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym When I joined the site I was trying to think of something different and thought of the three events in a tri and shortened it by removing all the vowels. Actually, I was a bit shocked that it was not previously used. The picture is a view of a sunset, from the front yard of my former house here in Arizona. |

Expert 833 Adrian, MI | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym Fromer is a nickname I aquired during my freshman year of swimming. A crazy senior coined the name (I believe) because of the fro I used to have...and the name stuck. I now use the nickname as a handle. |

Champion 11641 Fairport, NY | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym marmadaddy: mar (the first syllable of my older daughter's name) + ma (the first syllable of my younger daughter's name) + daddy (I'm their daddy) = a screen name I won't forget, is highly unlikely to be in use by someone else and will always be a reminder of what's important in life. Back when I played in rock bands, I had a stage persona called MC Spanky Spank. I tried MCSpanky and other variations as a name online a few times and got one too many offers unrelated to the supposed subject of the board. The avatar/picture changes occassionally. The current one was inspired by ScubaPunks. |

Elite 2553 Tucson, AZ | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym In college I got the nickname “Stoobie The Pirate Girl” after an evening with friends watching the cheesy Treasure Island video that you can get from the casino in Vegas. The first site I signed on to was the mountain biking site MTBReview.com, and on the discussion board there were a bunch of people with handles that started with the letter “S”. So I shortened it to Pirate Girl. Plus, pirates are just cool. The avatar, well, it’s a pirate girl. That’ll have to work until I get a tri pic. But I like the blue pirate girl one. Maybe I'll stick with it. The only other BBS name I have is on motorcycle sites, where I’m “MZGirl”. MZ is the brand of bike that I race. |

| Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym My alma mater is Gonzaga U, so that is were zaga came from. I regret using girl for the second half because I am an old woman, at least there are days that my three sons make me feel like one. Maybe Zaga-lete....sounds too much like freakaleek or whatever that hip hop song is. Now that I have tri pictures, I am trying to figure out how to get them uploaded (I am computer tech challenged) |

Expert 795 New Mexico | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym I originally used my pseudonym on a blackpowder shooting websight. Desert because of my southwest location. six from a couple of sources...Number Six from "The Prisoner" TV series, and my favorite "plinking" pistol - a blackpowder six gun. The Australian Cattle Dog is one of my training partners. My signature is something I came up with in high school cross country after a dog took off after one of our runners.

| Champion 8903 | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym No, it's not my given birth name. My real first name is Wallace, and it's my Dad's also, so in order to avoid confusion, I use a nick name that was given to me a while back. Many of my friends won't know who you're talking about if you call me anything but "Max." Even my mom has used it on occasion, though I think she hates it. I suppose it's much better than my wife's nick name...as she is affectionatley known as the "Little Chicken" from her hobby of collecting anything to do with said farm animal. |

| Champion 4902 Ottawa, Ontario | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym Oh yeah, and as for choosing the little pussy cat for my avatar, well, I just thought it was was cute. That and the fact that I would rather be identified with a gentle creature as opposed opposed to a ferocious beast like a lion or a bull or something like that!  |

| Pro 3906 St Charles, IL | Subject: RE: Tell us the secret behind your pseudonym When I'm not training for triathlons, I work as a computer engineer. When a program crashes, it's usually for an error called a segmentation violation, a SEGV if you will ( note that my email is @segv.org but that's another story ).... The program also writes a memory dump, called a 'core file', which you can use ( sometimes ) to figure out why the program crashed and hopefully fix it so that it doesn't do that again. So, in computer jargon, a 'coredump' is a 'program crash'. If it was a fox TV show, it'd be "When good programs go bad!". |
