dashman 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2010 I run sprints in track and I was looking through an old track program, that my coach had from the 70's, and the sprinters were called Dashmen back then. I figured it sounded cooler than sprinter so why not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fly Samurai 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2010 It is said that the katana, the long sword used by samurai warriors, was the soul of the samurai. Always seemed like the ritual and love fly fishermen have for their fly rods was much the same. Then there is the Zen-like quality of casting, repeated practice resulting in an economy of motion and a certain fluid grace. But mostly it just sounds cool to say.

Hillbillyredear 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2010 well, I normally go by Redear, my all time favorite panfish, but when I registered here Redear was already taken so since I live in the hills of Indiana and have been called a redneck hillbilly by numerous people I just combined the two and became Hillbillyredear Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
