Yes, and I am a male die hard Martin fan too!

Me too. "Game of Thrones" is a fantastic series. Been reading 'em since the 90's.  8)

I was a Firefighter for 32 years and we had TLs (Turntable Ladders) made by Magirus, which sprang to mind years ago when I joined my first forum.

Mine is pretty straightforward, I like to play guitar and I fly for a living, so it combined two passions. Used to always bring a Taylor on the road but now I use carbon fiber for that for its durability. Still love to come home to my Taylor's though.

Dave:  I don't know whether it occurred to you, but your handle could also be interpreted as being a 'worried' flyer... ;)

I guess now that I've chimed in I'll have to own up to having one of the most boring forum names out there:  purely a concatenation of the first syllables of my first and last names, plus part of a number that's relevant to me.

If I recall correctly when you joined the forum, that same number is relevant to me too, for the same reason.  ;)

Fun topic!  ;D my username = my initials plus pilot as I've always loved to fly. I'm not a pilot but I've used this name for a number of things.

16 years ago my wife and I moved from the Chicago suburbs to rural northwestern Illinois.  She has always loved horses and grew up with them by working at a dude ranch in junior high, high school and college. She converted me into a cowboy and we now have 4 horses and 2 mini donkeys in our backyard.
I cannot claim to be a real cowboy, but I more than play one on TV as evidenced by many pairs of cowboy boots that may or may not have horse poop on them. Several years after moving, I picked up my old Yamaha guitar after 20 plus years of not playing. So my name represents two of my favorite hobbies.
