Mine is a no-brainer. My initials are JLR and travel is my passion.
jlr4travel is the result. :-)
I have an email address to match (which preceeded FT). So, this is my online handle for all things travel.

There's another Ted?!?
Good thing too, since I always wondered if you were calling me out.
I've been Ted Nugent since before Chevy Chase used my name in Fletch.
When I registered (and thence became corrupted) I was at a loss for cute aphorisms, etc, so just used my name. I added (no relation) to clarify my status wrt the Motor City Madman. (who also, apparently, is not that Ted.)

Because I'm too old & slow to come up with anything original. Actually, I would rather have my handle be what I am currently using as my password, but I know you can't change your handle once you join. That is, unless you want to start all over again at post #1.

No imagination here...
mmj is my initials...and my undergrad university assigned a number based on how many people in the system had the same initials...hence mmj3.
It was a way of IDing yourself for EVERYTHING on campus and it's just stuck since.

His followers called him mahasamatman, and said he was a god. He preferred to drop the maha- and the -atman, however, and called himself sam.
He never claimed to be a god. But then, he never claimed not to be...

An old Gary Larson far side cartoon that just tickled my timbers.
Out in the middle of the woods a guy stumbles across a shop. The wooden shingle announces it as "The Happiness Store"
The quote "All of his life people had been telling him that it could not be bought!"

I was sitting at DFW while delayed (big surprise) and I decided I would actually join this site instead of just looking around. When i couldn't think of anything, I looked up and there was a sign for the skylink.
Voila... DFWSkylink was born
