Bumba

I have a B.A. in being a bum.
I used to be a fatalist,
but that part of me died.

I registered this name when I was with the Rapid Thunder/Rolling Thunder Squadron, but now I just go by Sigma. Its half of my fraternity name (Sigma Nu) and the symbol is a Greek S, which is the first initial of my name. Double bonus because I hate mathematics.

Acidreign was the name of one of my old bands back in my rock and roll days.

In AW i was <26>, one of the orignal chawks. Jhffo and i used to fight over top buff honors constantly, he finally convinced me to be a chawk.

 I saw way to many number toons when i came to AH recently, so i went with Gunz, kinda the obvious as GV's are primarily what i do at this time due to a hand injury/surgery.

 57 was the year i was born. Christ i'm getting old!!

 There yah have it.

Renegade.....

Back in the week the only vox was a telephone. No one wanted to type the full call sign so they auto shortened it to Ren. Once you get get one you never seem to lose it :)

 Most folks had short call signs. Those with long ones like Grey Eagle, Shark Bait or Pizza Face ended up with folks typing GE and SB, etc...

I wonder what Stympy is short for...

Mine has the indian meaning of "you suck"


actually, no, it's based on the book/movie of the same name... you know, "Shane, come back, Shane."  

Altho there are several other worthy quotes from the book that are applicable, such as, "A man who pays attn to what's going on around him will go far."
Surrounded by suck and underwhelmed with mediocrity.
I'm always right, it just takes some poepl longer to come to that realization than others.
I'm not perfect, but I am closer to it than you are.
