I chose a local creek drainage in which I like to hunt. Loosely translated from the Native American Shoshoni tongue it means "wolf crap".

Well, I'm Jeff, and I used the last MOS (Military Occupational Specialty) I was performing when I semi-retired. I had a bunch over the decades, and 4066 is "computer systems specialist".

I could also be 0331, 0844, 4034, 6000, 5927, 5928, 9981, and 9052.

from rezavoirdog wrote 1 year 1 day ago

I am enrolled on, grew up, went to school on and returned to after college, the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation or "Rez". Growing up, my brothers, cousins and I used to go swimming and fishing at the Tongue River Reservoir or "Rezavoir", and the Dog Soldiers were the Greatest Warriors of the Pains Indians, so, hence "rezavoirdog". Or, someone pointed out a movie I also liked, "Reservoir Dogs" by Quentin Tarantino. Cool.

Thanks for asking Beekeeper!
Actually a Daddy 5 times over.
I got my user name, because I always liked the Bob Seger song, "Come to Poppa."
I was registering on a fishing forum, while the song was in the background playing, and they wouldn't allow the word "to" so I used the numeral "2".
I usually sang the song while I had a fish on!
Come 2 Poppa!
Come see your Daddy,I'll get ya fixed.
Anytime,night or day.
