Where does your user name come from?


Hi everyone,
I'm curious to know what's the story behind your user name (or Alias)... There are a bunch of people that use their name (of parts of it) like myself, Albert Porter, GerryM5, Esoler...

But where does user name like Cornfedboy, Garfish, Calloway, Tireguy, SwampWalker (and many many others) come from? Any story behind?

Just curious

Oh, I also have another name (a respected gentleman gave it to me) - 6chak - which I like it even better. :-)
Having a unique, quite non-anon name outside a-gon, it's nice just to kick back and be anon at agon for a change.
My moniker is the title of an instrumental tune from an old rock album(which I am listening to as I write). If any one knows from where feel free to email me. The name reminds me of a leaf gently floating with an eddy. Cheers
When I listen to soothing classical music, I close my eyes and think of enchanting natural settings like the redwood forests of California. This is very much like ET's ride at Universal Studios in Florida. If you have ever walked along that dark path in ET's forest and seen the all the redwood trees and ferns, you'll know how I came up with my user name. Hokey, of course, but helps me forget what's on the news. By the way, I brought back redwood and Giant Sequoia seedlings from California for my back yard. One redwood is now 35 feet high.
