What's The Story Behind Your FR Handle?

I've always wondered about the origins and meanings (if any) behind others Freeper handles. Its a quiet Sunday morning, so I thought it would be an interesting topic to start the day.

What's the story behind your handle?

I used the name diapason because I’m an organist. The diapason is what one might call the foundation stop of an organ.

Picked the name of Bushbacker, to show support for W in '04, but it was already taken. So, I tried Bushbacker1 and it took. Stayed with that name until I became so disgusted with all things Bush earlier this year. At that time I requested from JimRob a name change. Granted!

Road Warrior '04 was what I picked, harkening back to my start date and honoring all of the road trips with fellow Freepers Seekthetruth, MinuteGal, Gonzo (RIP), roaddog727 (RIP), Matchett-PI, 3D-JOY, M Kehoe and many more! What a great bunch!

My earliest American ancestor is traced to the Jamestown colony. When I signed up here, I had forgotten the specific year, and all the records were in a stored box from my last move (still are).

I don’t think I’ll change it, even if I find out it’s wrong; 1630 seems to have been a good time for Jamestown.

When I was forty years old, I was in an executive management position that required great negotiating skills. I was real lucky because I had great boss and a consultant friend, both who had the gift of effective negotiators. So....I shut my mouth listened, watched and learned from these two great gents, both successful, “Strategic Thinkers”.

Lo & Behold, I actually got quite good at that game!!! The “sly fox” type identity seemed fitting. Learned to identify the players and non-players in the game quite quickly...lucky for me!!!

Good afternoon.

“I was exposed to rabies.”

I thought so.

You have recovered very well in the last 16 years.

Hey friend! Hope you and your sweetheart are doing great.

We sure did have many great times together between doing Freeps, gathering for events and just having a party!

I don’t post as much as I used to, but still come to FR often as I know this is a great place to come when one is seeking the truth. :)

As long as dogs don't raise your leg at you, consider yourself ahead of the game.

I came over here in 1983 with lots of expectations ! Today looks like living in twilight zone without any rules for law and order spearheaded by the ASS-CLOWNS to the very left !!!

How can it be fixed ???
