Spent a lot of time surfing and hanging out in Baja California Mexico. My grown-up job was as an EMT and then an eye doctor.
My username has caused a little confusion over the years.
My nickname is Many, which was given to me by my mom. Many people have told me that since I go by Many, a name popular with people of Hispanic culture, and have the user name lowriderfxr and live in LA , that I am Hispanic and live in Los Angeles and work on the lowrider cars that are popular there.
Well the FXR or lowrider was a popular model of Harley Davidson discontinued in 1994. Its my favorite model and I still have one. I live in Louisiana and I've got a Cajun background.
I hope that clears things up!

It's "vorticity" from fluid mechanics, which I did for a number of years.

This website became my favorite place after I found it. Entertaining and informative. Basically replaced TV for me. I would grab a beer and peruse the many posts and pages. The most relaxing place I know, especially in this day of perpetual bad news.
My family is of Polish heritage.
My username is the Polish word for beer. It is pronounced "PEE-voh"
I had one on the desk when I had to pick a name. Seemed like the right choice at the time.

When I was working our work ID was our first initial and first 5 letters of our last name so I just carried that over. I now realize that this wasn't the best idea on social media and I would like to change it to something generic but more fun but just haven't gone through the hassle of trying to do so.

An old dog that I had. If we were walking with him on a leash and someone came up behind me that I didn't see he just bit them no bark or other noise. Had to buy a heavy muzzle for him.
Go figure LOL
Mine isn't gun or work related. I grew up in the 70s/80s. Was (kinda still am) a huge Star Wars fan. I was there at the beginning in 1977. Read a lot of the Star Wars novels in my youth. Kaarde comes from a series of novels by Timothy Zahn. It is the last name of a favorite character called Talon Kaarde. Nothing spectacular, just thought it would be easy to remember and type.

Really? Ya gotta ask?
Everyone I surfed with had nick names. They called me WooD.
As far as 714, if you have to ask you wouldn't understand.
