• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

USER NAMES/HANDLES - What does yours mean? Where did it come from?

USER NAMES/HANDLES
This ended up to be a fun thread, let's see if anymore SpyderLovers will tune in!!

How did you obtain or come up with your user name?

One day shortly after I bought my yellow/black spyder, we went out ryding, and a boy pointed at me and said "Look that's BumbleBee".

It then stuck with me.

The name reflects the BumbleBee character in the Transformers Movie.
Let's see :dontknow: BumbleBees are not royalty therefore don't wear a crown? Maybe there is more to this story! :bowdown::joke:
 
Patdcop = One night in plain clothes, I interupted some dirt bags who were up to no good, when one of them said "Don't you know who that is?". One of them said "He's a cop." I said, "No, I am THE cop!" Some how it got morphed into Pat D cop. I have have had the handle since AOL 2.0 :p
 
In the 1970's, one of my best friends looked just like the character "Adam Gomez" from the TV show the The Adams Family, so I started calling him Gomez. In retaliation, he started looking for something (NICE) to call me. Since I'm confined to a wheelchair, I sit on a ROHO wheelchair cushion hence the nickname Roho. :dontknow:
 
I became a Spyderman at 55

Although my friends, upon first seeing the Spyder, all exclaimed "Geno, you are the Batman!" Wrong super hero, so I went with Spyderman. And as I was 55 at the time - Spyderman55.
 
When I lived in Hesperia Ca, I used to collect snakes and milk them for their venom. I had a pet Tarantula, and my humor is a little on the venomous side. :sour:
 
Sure MouthPiece!! :chat: Some of my good friends are lawyers - don't trust them as far as I could throw them, but still like them. :ohyea:

Neither do I.
 
There are two Lawyers in my Hunting club and when ever i catch them wrong on some point they always use the term =
''THAT ISN'T NECSSSARILY SO''
What does that really mean?? :dontknow:

Usually means they don't have a clue.

When I joined here I used my name which is Bill Soderlin (long o) but most people know me as Friar Tuck my club name as one of the founders of the M/C club Wheels of Man M/C out of Deerfield Beach Fl. My E-mail is f[email protected] Been riding since Aug. 1954:2thumbs:
 
Luck seems to follow me. :coffee: My wedding anniversary is on St. Patrick's Day. Sevens abound in my life.

Have been blessed with a wonderful life and includes my awesome hubby for nearly 40 years who entertains my whims like this cool three-wheeled bike.

And when I purchased my :f_spider:, the guy I bought it from sold it for only what he owed plus he had the personalized license tag SPYDR, which he signed over to me. Something that I consider a true blessing.

So SpyderMeLucky it is!!!! :cheers:
