Well the origin of my "handle" may seem anticlimactic.  But here goes.............contrary to popular belief my name does not have it's origins in the famous fast food delight  :rock  It does however, share a similar trait......yes the love of bacon (insert favorite pork related joke here).  From a very young age I would come in low and fast over the breakfast table and snatch all the bacon I could before siblings left me with none.  Years later the movie Terminator came out and my fierce fight over bacon at the family table continued.  Thus, I was crowned The Baconator by my older brother.  Shortened to it's present form of "Bacon8tr" to fit allowable charcater spaces.  See I told ya...anticlimactic.

No, I'm not from Canada.  I got mine while playing baseball with the neighborhood kids when I was young.  They used to say I could knock the ball out of the park every time.  Then, they would just start saying could knock it out, and eventually that became shorter and they started mixing it up and it eventually became canacka.

I go back to Air Warrior version 1.0, about 23 years ago.   At first there were no handles; they assigned plane numbers when you signed up.  I was plane number 715.  Much later they decided to add handles and, being creatively challenged, I just used my plane number.  I was the only player allowed to use my plane number as my handle, so I am the original "annoying numbers guy".  

When I moved from AW (to Confirmed Kill, then to Warbirds and then) to Aces High, I chose 715 as my handle.  When Aces High came out of beta they had everyone pick a new handle (I don't remember why) so I became 715A.  Years later, in frustration, I quit.  When I restarted, I became 715B.

I was hungry.Very hungry.

 I was at that point thereaper52(that is my xbox gamertag) when I decided to change my name.

I thought for a while and my stomach started growling. I made a PBJ sandwich and then changed my name to sandwich.

Yep. Interesting isnt it?  :D

I was 031598 for a year when I first started, didn't understand the cpid thingy and put my daughters birthday...March 15th, 1998.  So when I changed it, she said, "Daddy, planes fly in the sky..... and you like to play rock music"  ... and there it was!   :aok

15 years ago, Farrapo (FA229) invited me to join the RAF229th....my initials are JC, but the silly AW thingie wouldn't take it, so I used wifey's initials (Barbara Jean....lol sounds like deep south, but she hails from Boston burbs). Lol, I must confess, the greater implications of the initials didn't occur to me at the time :lol
