What's the story of your online user name
#11
My initials are DRA, with my last name starting ALD. When I was at Boot Camp, one of the guys in my platoon stenciled a "B" on some masking tape and put it in front of the piece on my locker that had my last name to recognize my hairstyle (or lack thereof). People were asking me if I was upset, I thought it was hilarious.


146 is a reference to the route I used to live at.

Option 1: EmptySea was picked as I am highly concerned about how climate change may effect our ocean fisheries and leave us with empty seas across the globe.

Option 2: I feel alone in this world...like a man in a rowboat on an empty sea

Option 3: "Empty Sea" is a somewhat phonetic spelling of my initials: MTC

Has to be this one!

Nothing to it. Last name first. First name last. I don't believe in anonymity. Always show my face and say my name - they are both kinda nice lol

Love this, clever stuff. Three distinctly different meanings and yet all meaningful to the man....nice MTC!

Tev62 - 62 is the obvious birth year and Tev was coined by a ships bursar when I was a teenage Engineering Officer Cadet in the Merchant Navy (Merchant Marine). Tev is short for Terry which is short for Terence.

When I rode a ZG1000 Concours in the mid-90’s, my riding buddies called me the Long Ranger because I could ride over 300 miles on its 7.5 gallon gas tank. Once I got into LD riding, the moniker kind of stuck, but those days are over.

Its my Playstation and Xbox name.
Usually their software adds numbers to any name you choose (eg Mix7834) and ruins it so its play with letters game to get a name with no numbers after it and this is what I settled on, no real meaning or connection to me but its easy to see on a list of online players.

Mine is a character from the short movie The Point a story about a boy who lives in a world where every one has a pointed head except him , he and his dog Arrow go on a journey to understand why he doesn’t have a pointed head. It’s a children’s animated film, to help kids understand people’s differences .
