Whats in a name?

[mossiepilot]

Mine comes from the the first kit I built when I returned to modelling, which I bought because my Dad had been an engine fitter on Mossies during his National service, a 1/48 Mosquito, and it's one of my favourite planes ever. Pilot because, well I like flying and would have liked to have been a pilot. So, I would have liked to have been a mossiepilot, and on here, I am.

Although mine looks just like a first name it does have a bit of history...For reasons too morbid to go into here, my grandfather (Danny) removed me from a dangerous home environment when I was 7...

He lived his life by common law and in fine tune with nature and naturally his ethos became my taught ethos. He also practiced and promoted the "Freeman of the land" life and gave short thrift to any

statutes created by council or government agencies that he wasnt contracted into. Ive tried to follow his lead and step one was to remove the "Mr" from my name. Im just Danny for that reason. If you type

legalese in google you will see why the Mr is so important to authority. You guys need to try, just out of curiosity, when getting a phone call asking if your Mr Jo Bloggs, saying "no" then stating your name is just Joe Bloggs....depending who has called, they cant handle that and will usually hang up.

For those wanting more info on the "Freeman" movement, again type it in google.....Just to add, my grandfather drove a car without a licence, nor road tax, although he did have insurance....his reply to being stopped and questioned over that by authorities was that he was a traveller and as such did not need them to go from A to B he refused to be called a driver....he was never once fined or had points on his licence, because it never existed...

I fly, my name is Joe and my favourite aeroplane to fly is the Cessna 180. Not that I get to fly them any more.

[Guest]

Mine is just most of my name. I visited a forum several years ago and chose Downspout Warrior for my name. Why? It just came to me. The mind is a curious thing. The name calls up the image of some fierce fully armed but quite small fighters having their barracks in rainwater hardware. No, I have never visited a psychiatrist.

[Guest]

I use the name of my national dish. Same on virtually all forums I inhabit.

[Guest]

I was reading Seventh Son from the Tales of Alvin Maker by Orson Scott Card at the time I joined the forum and my first name is Adrian. Alvin had an supernatural knack for making things, I have to work at it.

Great Andrew! If you hadn't said anything, I never would have thought twice about your nick, but now you made me guess - not a pretty picture!

Good thing you didn't say how it ended up in there, cos I sure wouldn't want to know ;-)
