LOL! Just think...you could create a pretty cool animated icon for that, Mike! Maybe even have two neon Nalgene bottles holstered on your hips rather than guns.

Showed up on night to meet with some friends an one stated I had a scowl and looked irritated, just like the rat he saw on his patio.
Whatever.

A friend of mine from LA used to have nicknames for everyone. Mine was "ironman" because of my active hiking, mountaineering, climbing and cycling background. He and I used to go on some epic hikes/backpacks into the San Gabriels and Sierras. Eventually the nickname stuck, although I had to modify it slightly for the various mountaineering boards (since it was already "taken").

HikinMike, we could team for Dual Robo's. Your knees, my hips! Good thing they don't have metal detectors at the trailheads.

I chose "Buck" just because it sounds so studly and it also connotates moolah. That makes me a double threat guy.

giantbrookie was chosen because it is part of a title of a fishing book ('Into the Land of the Giant Brookies') I wrote years ago that I haven't gotten published. Of course "giantbrookie" is also chosen for some shock factor (both for the book and the username) because many might regard giant brookie as an oxymoron after having encountered dozens of "knockemdeadbrookie" lakes where you catch a stunted skinny brookie on every cast. Needless to say there really are big brookie lakes if one looks hard enough in the Sierra and the place my wife and I named the "Land of the Giant Brookies" was a basin of unnamed lakes where I caught fish of 15" and better out of four different lakes on a single dayhike.
