What does your Freeper sign on mean? Why did you choose it?

[BibChr]

After my web site and blog... and because I aim to be a Biblical Christian.

[big bad easter bunny]

it was so long ago I can’t remember, I did raise rabbits when I was a kid.

[EternalVigilance]

“The price of liberty is eternal vigilance.”

While often attributed to Thomas Jefferson, the quote is actually from Wendell Phillips.

But it is always true, and will be until the LORD comes again.

Get the t-shirt.

Here's to you.

At that time, a trash 80 was state of the art of personal computers. I used one to first get online to a local dialup BBS in 1978. Used a 100-150 baud acoustic modem. On long distance! The excitement of reading all those messages (in sloooow scrolling text) and the nervous self consciousness typing in the first reply was overpowering.

Used that POS computer to run the payroll for a small company for several years, though. And I still have that original machine somewhere... along with a later original Osbourne and a luggable Compaq. Right next to the dinky 8” Motorola b&w TV that we watched the first televised election night on when Eisenhower won.

[Donkey Odious]

Mine evolved from a play on words when I was emailing my wife. One of us wrote “thank you” and the other wrote “donkey shane”. That was followed quickly by “donkey shame” which reminded me of Don Quixote which led to donkey odie and finally to Donkey Odious...which pretty much sums up my political leanings.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Because I have a granddaughter named Ralph!

:)

[Gamecock]

So did Jos. Smith

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

One day I called up our newly-married sound man, and got his message recorder. Using a sing-song Paki accent I said;
“Oooooh! This is Dr. Bogus Pachysandra from the Cleveland Free Sex Clinic. Don’t touch that thing! Don’t let anybody touch that thing! I’m a doctor and I won’t touch that thing!”
Then I hung up. His new bride got the message first! When Bob got home, he had some ‘splain’ to do! After awhile, they figured out that it had to be me, and called back, laughin’ their butts off!

[rdb3]

My initials, even the 3.

[rmlew]

My Freeper handle is based on my college email. R (for Ron), M (Maximilian, my first middle name) Lew (Lewenberg, my last name.

When I was suspended for an immigration post, I came up with an alternate, Bulan_Sabriel. Bulan Sabriel was the Khagan Bek (Prime minister) of the Khazar empire who embraced Judaism in 740, after the 100 years of wars with the Caliphate. Some of the nobility followed suit including one of my father's ancestors.

[LexBaird]

Mine is in reference to the 12th century Chinese Zen philosopher of the same name.

[petercooper]

C’mon, Peter Cooper only designed and built the first steam locomotive in the U.S. in 1830.

[Clemenza]

I had no idea you were partially descended from the K-Zars, interesting.

I try like hell NOT to give my real identity away, except to a select few.

[Quix]

I don’t think Joel deserves that slam by a wide margin.

[Ditter]

30 times! Oh my, you haven’t had any time to collect a bunch of junk! Want some of mine?

[CharlesThe Hammer]

“Street Name” for Charles Martel, Frankish nemesis of the Moors...swing the sword first; talk later...Tours 732.

[Peanut Gallery]

I have two accounts, the one I don’t use anymore is msdrby, the newer one is peanut gallery. “msdrby” is my name, sort of. “Peanut Gallery” I thought was more appropriate for this forum :o)
