Meaning behind your handle

Can we truss this to be factual?
Did you see what I did there?

 

My name. High school class of 1969.

 

Ha, and here I was thinking it a Marty Robbins reference.

 

Tragically simple
first initial of first and middle names
first four of last name

Cheers all

 

Well, my last name is pronounced "peachy" so my nickname is Peach. And the 63? You figure it out.

 

Andy, is that you?

 

I'll take "year of birth" over "height."

 

Simply a play on “PBR me ASAP”

 

A single fin pin, is a surfboard, a pin tail with a single big fin. My favorite type of board to ride in big surf, but in my old age, 66 years old I'm more likely to ride a 9 foot square tail, with three fins, or a 2+1 for those that know your surfboards.
All the clever beer names were taken! LOL!

 

Bret’s the name. Was 27 when I joined.

 

Not yet! mIRC is still around. It's up to v7.67. On the same bookmark page of mine that links to BeerAdvocate, you will find a link to mIRC.

You're not the only person who has thought of taking highway exits as names. A female starring in explicit movies (of which I have shown a few) got her name from I-94 Michigan exit #159.

Sigh. The Ovaltine plant in Wheaton, IL. was one of the last industries to be switched by the Chicago, Aurora & Elgin electric railroad (circa 1959).

As for my nickname, When living in southern California in 1981, I got acquainted with two males at Los Angeles AZTECS soccer postgame parties at the Bonaventure Hotel in downtown L.A. It happened that they ran a soccer franchise. It was very much shoestring. They swiped the team's nickname from a recently-defunct American Soccer League team. They had no affiliation or connection to the side. They spoke with me because I was one of the few English-speaking fans attending games and | or postgame parties. When they found out I had played a little soccer when in high school (Not for the H.S. I was 'loaned out' to a nearby mostly Polish-speaking amateur soccer team.), they asked if I would do some work for them.
Mainly, go to shopping malls, shake hands, sign autographs, and publicize our next home game.
They gave me the name "Pudgy". They thought it sounded Brazilian. Thankfully, it had no definition in Portuguese.
Well - this was Hollywood. Everybody is an actor in Hollywood. I became a Brazilian with an old Volkswagen Beetle [manual transmission - soccer players should know how to use both feet] to motor around the southland (L.A. County only.). I was instructed to note when I had to refuel the car, and they would compense. 29 was my jersey number. It is my lucky number. It is a prime number. There are not a lot of those in the two-digit range.
When I got on the Internet in March 1996, there were fora that I could sign up for, and there was a caution about using your real name. Especially on privacy and security fora. "pudgy29" was revived. It has served me quite well in this past quarter-century. I shall continue to use it for W-WW fora where I will admit to being on them. [Yes, I have at least one semi-anonymous pseudonym. Of course, I will not inform you here what it | they could be.]

 

Mine is straight-forward. Roy Hobbs is the main character in The Natural, which has always been one of my favorite sports movies

 

You’re BEAMing with humor, Mike.

 

That’s a good one, but it sounded rigged

 

Just a meshing of my first and last name, nothing exciting.

 

I need to make a small correction about my previous post in this thread.
The Ovaltine Plant was in Villa Park, IL., not Wheaton. But as this URL displays, it was one of the last operations of the Chicago, Aurora & Elgin railroad after it abruptly ended passenger service.

 

I was in the SCA for a few decades, and as I fought in armor I needed heraldry. Boars fascinated me with their ferocity at the time and getting unique heraldry with a boar was tough, until it was made argent/silver or white. So logically, WhiteBoar would have been my choice, and it was, but somebody else as using it (back in the 1990s I think) so it became Whyteboar.
