Is there a story or reasoning for your username?

@RWStorm
My favorite Weather Girl, back in Northern Michigan, was "Gail Storm". Nope I'm not makin' that up.

Reminds me of a scene from last night's NCIS (with Michael Weatherly& Ziva)

MNLumberJack??? Well, I still call Minnesota home (if for 6 months at a time), I use to cut a Lot of firewood in years past and my nickname is Jack, Hmmmmmm!

@Devils Mountain
Glad you brought up the subject, there's a lot of names out there in the land of HAZ that I wonder about.

I'm still waiting to hear the background story for the Joe Bartels username ...

When I was 12 years old I was acting the part of the "hippie chick" in a school play, some smartarse said "Oh Look it's Haley the Hippie" every time I walked by after the play, within a week it caught on and my best friend painted me a shirt (with the incorrect spelling) reading "Hippy Haley" after that it just became me, my long hair was always free and wild, I occasionally wore a headband or bandana to hold it back in sports, because i'm such a small fry bell bottom pants looked awesome on me and all my friends and family started buying me tye dye clothes and kits and of course I was already in love with older music and classic rock so....yeah, that's me.

For a while I was HippyHaley, now I'm just the Hippy because it kinda bugs me when people message me saying "Hey Haley", I dunno, I'm strange about that

Got tired of having contrived usernames, so I took the simple road.

mine is short for turd-wad

my name is born of Joe being mean. go figure

I was going to change mine similarly, but it wasn't possible technologically when i made the effort so stayed with the first initial/last name. I don't like screen names; I can't remember one name per person let alone two, and I don't intend to say anything here that has to be anonymous. I would prefer to use my given name so put it in the signature line.

Your name works pretty well for that. I considered first initial/last name as well, but Pleale has a funny ring to it.

@te-wa

Are you a stickler for formality, or can I simply address you, "Yo Turd"?

@BobP
You noticed I'd been stayin' out of this one.
I knew you 2 knuckleheads or an unnamed young lady, would pipe up on this sooner or later.
You two are Real Mean and Hurtful.

@coanbru
I was gonna ask you yesterday.
But everytime I typed it, it sounded snarky.
I don't want anyone here to have a low opinion of me.

A little late for that isn't it?
Sorry, that's just mean, and now I jumped in the pool with the two knuckleheads.

@coanbru
I don't think I'll be able to move forward today.
Oh wait look at my avatar......

Am I close?

So I was doing a yoga pose...The Eagle....then Bruce tried to do same pose and since then he's been the Eagle. The funny part was when Joe called him the BALD EAGLE

I'll stick to the facts until we're above 4000 feet.
