What does your screen name mean?

[MemphisFred]

In middle school, I started a fake gang called the Jive Turkeys, which was inspired by the "Airplane!" movie franshise.

I get it, the white woman talking street to the brothers...lol, that movie was hilarious.

But I thought maybe you got it from watching old episodes of Sanford & Son...ol Fred used to call Lamont that all the time, well...that and dummy.

As a tool designer, the usual practice is to use your initials in the title-block of your drawings. However, after tiring of getting chewed-out by the owner for costly, mistake-ridden designs by several designers with the same initials (including his brother), I started to use the first three letters of my last name. Maybe I was an ass for allowing him to complete his rants, but I always found it satisfying to refrain from setting him straight until after he was finished chewing me out. Tit-for-tat I suppose.

The story of kingbeefy.

Years ago I played drums in a band and we were travelling smewhere. We started tossing about awful ideas. One of mine was to be a hip hopster named Beefy Macahomie. A fews years after that Sim City 4 came out and I somehow got way into it. Everytime you create a new town you have to name your mayor, I started using Mayor Beefy, then later used Duke of Beef, and finally landed on King Beefy. Since then all my online activities have been under the username kingbeefy.

There you go.

[WoodRiverTroutBum]

I am a Trout bum and Wood River is where it all started. Now I chas everything from 6" native trout to 8' sharks with a fly rod. I figured this extremely expensive "hobby" wasn't enough so I decided to smoke cigars and here I am.
