[MNJohnnie]

Ok, yes I am bored. Was looking at various threads and wonder how and why Freepers come up with their sign ons.

For example. I am MnJohnnie. I live in Minnesota and, for some reason, everyone calls me Johnnie instead of John. So when confronted with having to come up with a signon, I went with the 1st thing that popped into my mind.

So why did you pick your sign on? What does it mean?

[rahbert]

Its my name.

[Joe 6-pack]

Are you working for the Census?

[Charles Henrickson]

I picked one that reminded me of my name, Charles Henrickson.

[BJClinton]

Mine is a tribute to the legacy of our 42nd president.

[w1andsodidwe]

I signed up in January 2001 after lurking for a couple years. I was so happy that W finally was named the winner over Algore. I see no need to change it.

[bcsco]

It an acronym for a business a had at one time. Busse Computer Services Company; BCSCO. It became so familiar to me, I used it as my username. Nothing more complicated than that...

[earlJam]

Larry, I have always wondered how you came up with your sign on name.

(Mine is a spin off of the rock band Pearl Jam)

[MomwithHope]

There are some Freepers I would love to see respond to this. For me it was 1999 and even though we were suffering under Clinton I still had hope. It’s worse now but my name still fits.

[the invisib1e hand]

it mean you have log in.

[Uncle Miltie]

In honor of a Freedom loving Nobel Prize Winning Economist.

[mrmeyer]

First letter of first name, first letter middle name, then last name.

[Peter W. Kessler]

I didn’t choose my screen name.

My parents did.

[Loud Mime]

I’m a contradiction....like Marcel Marceau in “Silent Movie.” His speaking - the only line in that movie - was a stroke of genius.

[illiac]

Mine is the name of a super computer project I worked on while at the Burroughs Corporation.

[SnakeDoctor]

“Snake Doctor” is the operational callsign of Jonas Blaine, the leader of a Delta Force/ Black Ops military team on the cancelled television series “The Unit”.

I chose it because it sounded good, as a non-obvious tribute to unsung heroes — and because Jack Bauer doesn’t have a callsign.

SnakeDoc

[Ditter]

Ditter=baby talk for sister. My brother named me.

[Lazamataz]

La = I’d.
Zama = hit.
Taz = it.

[Hulka]

What I did when working in the Penatgon back in the day. . . .business was GOOD.

[DocRock]

I’m a Gemologist

[RabidBartender]

I was a bartender with rabies.
