How did you come up with your moniker?

Grab your bear can or camp chair, kick your feet up and chew the fat about anything Sierra Nevada related that doesn't quite fit in any of the other forums. Within reason, (and the HST rules and guidelines) this is also an anything goes forum. Tell stories, discuss wilderness issues, music, or whatever else the High Sierra stirs up in your mind.

I really don't have much of a choice. I'm not getting better, in fact I'm getting worse. I don't know when the surgery will be, but after tomorrow's appointment I should know a bit more.

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. \:D/ j/k

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.
