Well CRAP!  I thought I had posted in this thread before, but I guess I was mistaken!  Go figure.

Well, Mine comes from the fact that I do actually hold a current OUTV license (operator of uninspected towing vessels aka Tugboat Captain's License) 4th issue, although I haven't used it in about 10 years.  My family owns a Tugboat company, which I promptly left after 18 years in the early 90's. (I started when I was 14, you do the math!)

I currently play a SatCom Software Design Engineer and Projects Manager for a Maritime Communications/Software Development company until I can figure out what I want to do when I grow up!  

WTF, O?

If anyone ever played Tyrian (that old PC top-down flyer shooter), you may already know Harble Wom. He was one of the techs in Episode 4 trapped on the doomed planet. You had to save him, 'cause he was gonna die. There was one datacube that you could get going a certain route that was just plain hilarious. And I loved Tyrian so very much. So I decided to pay Tyrian a little tribute a while back when I signed up for Yahoo under this name, and now I've done it again. Actually, Harble Wom was not at all an important character in Tyrian. I could've chosen Trent Hawkins, or Transon Lohk. But I guess I'm just crazy.

Well, mine is the name is the decepticon jet known as Starscream. For those of you who don't remember, Starscream was the one who kept trying to bump Megatron out as leader of the Decepticons. However, Starscream's body was destroyed by Galvatron. That's it.

The reason I went with Starscream was because I didn't have any idea on what to call myself. But I think being at a transformers message board before signing up here had something to do with it.

I'd like to say I picked my name because of my unpredictability in gaming and life in general, but really it was an old nick of cousin's and decided to steal it for myself....which is kinda unpredictable.

oooh, I love Tyrian. I even love the little secret games.

Mine is really simple actually. About a decade ago I chose phoenix, and my friend chose dragon. Being so common on the net, we both added 'first names' to our nicks.

Valor is one of the cyber dogs from Battle Angel Alita

I do a google search every once in a while on my nick and the only other instance is a kevlar vest manufacturer Valor with their Phoenix line.

I wish I had a story to go with my name. It could be the time me and my friends drove 26 hours with a concert in the middle. Or it could be what I felt like registering for here. The truth is I needed a name bad, and this is what I came up with. ^_^ I like it, staying up is always a great idea, always.

Okay, I just found this thread, but I'm gonna pretend that I'm not that slow on the uptake . . .
A friend of mine once said that I was a "boobophiliac."  I'm sure that there must be an official term for the condition, but I just think that boobophiliac is funny.

right
Mort or Mortarion was a character that i made up ages ago and was originally going to be the evil guy for a project that i was working on. but the project collapsed but i kept the idea, me mate for a while kept calling him self the amazing spork so i became The incredible MorT for no real reason. and the avatar is just a drawing i did of Mortarion not too long ago, as im trying to fit him into another idea. im really not sure about the thumbs up award
