How'd you decide on your screen name?

Mine is pretty obvious, but I see some that I have no idea about. Tell me......Inquiring minds wanna know!

Green car, green in color, prompted take-off on Blue Meanies from Yellow Submarine.

I've been using this name online, or slight variations of it, for the past 17 (yes, seventeen) years, and don't see any reason to change now.

I've been using this name for 58 years. So it's always my first choice for a screen name if it's not already taken. And I joined PC early enough that it wasn't. Fortunately for me, Danny didn't choose to call himself Daniel when he built this site.

Summer of '93 is when I began using mine. I wanted to make a difference. The ship with that id provided the inspiration and a way of making my rather common first name unique. What followed is documented in my blogs. See, I bought this hybrid called "Prius", then...

Then you failed, because it's actually a very good pun. Nice screen name!

My wife uses tnt on a literary board she frequents. Husbands are referred to as "hub"... Thus tnthub.

My Prius Chat screen name, tazman, is also the name I use in the online gaming community I am a part of, axxium.org. The other screen name I have used since 1996 or so is stanglvr. That one should be obvious. I have owned a number of vintage Mustangs, have a Mustang running horse tatoo and I love Mustangs, so stanglvr.

Grandma Judy is what the grandkids call me - not embarassed to admit my age & proud to be a Grandma!
