My FReeper name came with my secret decoder ring
and my first check.
Actually my name came when our neighborhood was hit by
graffiti taggers, so I would tag over them with
Tet68Turf.
That was Tet68 for my time in RVN, they got tired
of being tagged and moved on...course I had some
cleaning up to do, but it was on my own building
so it took a while.
I love both Star Wars and Dilbert and so I combined the two.
When I first joined FR, back in January ‘98, I used my initials “reg”. Unfortunately, the search engine for self search used substrings, so I would get results for “greg”, “registered”, “regular army”, etc. So, in 2k, I appended my birthyear to my FReeper name.
