My neighbor at the time was a programmer was excited about the information highway. So he set me up with e-mail/screenname AV Apple Valley roadwarrior offroadwarrior still in use today. :usa

My first name that I used was DB69 which was a combination of Dodge Brothers
and my 69 sweptline that I formerly owned. I now use TommyDodge which was a nickname
given to me by some friends I worked with before I retired last year. I enjoy history and
Dodge history is right behind United States history. John and Horace are the reason I
don't have to drive or own anything else other than a vehicle that has DODGE on it!

Mines a stolen one, the greatest nascar driver, the one and only Earnhardt was known as the intimadator, or the man in black but before that a few called him ironhead for his rough way of driving. Throw in his car number and you have it.

Mine comes from my Pawpaw. He was the original owner of my truck and he was called "Doc" because he was named after a doctor. I still think of the truck as his and I am just the caretaker, so it's DocsTruck.

My family has had the long bed use I'm restoring since 86. I spent my whole life in that truck and it's forest service green, ex government truck at one time in its past life. I always called the truck big green when I was a kid and it has an la 318 in it so greenmachine318 was made probably 12 years ago when I joined the forum.

Ha that was pretty interesting post and responses. When I was in Afghanistan there was an EWO (Electronic Warfare Officer) that was posted to us on CIED op, he had the call sign "ziplock" the guy was pretty cool but scared the crap out of me on several occasions one time with a grenade he randomly picked up and started messing with the other was a trench gun he managed to get. So after the grenade incident I asked him how he got the call sign. He said he was an EWO in a B1B he related that the bird didn't have a head on it and they would poop and piss into ziplocks, well one day they where flying and the bird went into a dive the ziplock went airborne, the bag attained zero gravity for a bit, unfortunately he had forgotten to zip it close, of course the bag dumped all over the AC and copilot thus earning him his unfortunate call sign. My only response was why in the hell would you keep that when you where teamed with some army guys haha.
Mine is obvious I am an old hard hat guy.....

Mines simple, I love Mopars and my last name Morrell (pronounced like the mushroom) which I came up for my first email address and have used it on everything since and it's always available! Shocker...right? :lol:
