Mine is from the license plate on my bike from my rice rocket days. Have since slowed down and handed the plate down to my oldest son. I'm thinking of changing to the one from my beloved '80 Chevy half ton. It's "All US V8".
Mine's pretty easy.....saba is hebrew for grandpa and Shimon's my name.
sabashimon....it's what my grandkids call me, all 9 of 'em

Mine is in recognition of of the inventor of my favorite rifle.
John Cantius Garand. The M1 was retired for many years before I went to boot camp but the first time I picked one up it was instinctive, almost like I was born with it in my hands.

Ah yes, the one who got so drunk he aspirated vomit into his lungs while passed out and died.
He was a great drummer though.
Mine is simple,
I have no imagination.

Screen Name
Mine is from my Dog
He is also my Avatar
Patton, the General of our household
When we picked him out at a Animal Shelter near our Log cabin
he was three months old and already herding and bossing Goats around.
My wife was reading about General Patton that weekend and the name it stuck.
She chases him around the house and yells "PattonTime" at him, I guess I was hoping for the same kind of attention he always gets.
By the way, he is a TerraSpaniel, half Springer Spaniel and half Jack Russell Terrier

Mine is a homonym for my love of Chevy Nova's and them being unique. Growing up all I saw around for old Chevy muscle cars were Chevelles, and Camaros. The true NOVALTY is sitting in the garage right now.
Ladder13--Thanks for the compliment, the lady I bought the old Nova from, said she didn't think it could look good again. A little info on it, bought it as my first car with 43,307 original miles back in '96, she now has 62,427. She still has a lot of original chrome, interior (did add bucket seats, but have original bench), original drivetrain 307 and Powerglide (did add 12-bolt posi, have original 10-bolt). She has had the front suspension completely rebuilt, new control arms, adjustable Koni shocks all around, new multi-leaf rear springs, Cal-tracs adjustable traction bars. Custom backspace rims from Centerline, with 255/60/15 rear, 215/55/15's front. It has a Kenwood tape-deck to fit the original AM radio (still have) opening, tapedeck also controls a Kenwood 6-disc CD changer in the glovebox. A pair of JL Audio XR400 speaker in the dash mounted in the original 1 speaker location, and two Kenwood 6x9's are mounted out-of-sight below the rear shelf. She has been there for my high-school and college graduations and when I got married. Future plans are for Tremec TKO and GM crate 350.

Love that Nova. Back in the day, my friend had a 396/375 69' Nova all black. THAT car was the baddest of the bad, used to devour 427 Chevy's, 440 Mopars, 428/427 Fords, you name it. Fastest car I ever saw race on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, otherwise known as the BQE, back in the day. Cars used to pull up 3 abreast on the highway and race from overpass to overpass. Car was bone stock, though we all thought it may have been blueprinted from the factory, as they were known to do once in awhile.
Brings back memories, thanks.

My screen name comes from the belief that somebody... somewhere... will be able to find anything Evil.
No matter the good it does... someone will have issues with it.
So, I will step up and say that me and my likes, dislike, ideas are all Evil to someone.

Pardon the drift, I used to run the elevated section of the BQE that led to the Verrizano Bridge. We used to hang at Mitchells Drive In on 86th Street in Brooklyn. We would parade through the parking lot challenging each other and then race the unopened section of the BQE back toward Bush Terminal. Damn, does that bring back memories.

Glock 'em down
Member
Most folks think I'm a Glock-aholic by my screen name, but in reality, it doesn't mean that at all.
Back in the day of our Lord, 1990, when I was in CLEET (Oklahoma's basic police academy) the Glock 17 had just started showing up in a lotta cop's holsters. Mine had not yet been affected...we were still totin' wheel guns at my agency.
However...one of my CLEET instructors did carry a Glock 17 and one of his favorite sayings was, "if you can't knock 'em down GLOCK 'em down!"
It just kinda stuck.

Nothing to do with the middle east. Lyrics from a song about revenge through living well.
"I'll be a pharoah soon
Rule from some golden tomb
Things will be different then
The sun will rise from here
Then I'll be ten feet tall
And you'll be nothing at all."
Got divorced a couple of years ago and this was my theme song for a while. The bitterness is gone but the name has stuck.

I am from South Carolina, The Palmetto state. The Palmetto tree is a type of palm that was used to build forts near Charleston when relations with the mother country turned ugly. The Palmetto proved to be very effective at this and become part of the state lore. The number "99" is arbitrary, but I like the sound of it.

My name is Ron. Way back in 1976, my older sister's boyfriend was a guy named Bill. Bill played center for the high school CIF championship varsity football team. He was a big dude, I was a 14 year old trouble maker and like to call him Billdo. I thought it was funny, but went too far and used this nickname at the dinner table one night. 
My family started calling me Rondo and it kinda stuck.
