Nothing very creative for me.  I live on Westwood Road.  Plus, I like the name Westwood.  I should have done as Spartan 1 and 2 and called myself Badger.  Go Bucky.

Yeah, go Bucky!  Once a cheesehead, always a cheesehead, and a Madison-head to boot.

The way the board's scripts work, anyone can change their screen name at any time and past posts will reflect that change. Names on your past posts and your name when quoted using the board would change seamlessly.


Good news DB.  Is making the change easy and intuitive, even for a troglodyte like me?

Seriously yeah, it's fine by me. Just remember to hit submit at the bottom of that profile page. You can even change it back if no one snatched up the old name.

Wow that was easy.  If I can do it, ANYONE can do it. 

So now I am officially PUCKSTER.

Phantomjug was given to me after my 1st trip to Quetico in 1992. (I could share that story if anyone's interested). Funny story from a few years back though. After a week in the park with my boys and some cabin time, we usually hit up PJ's pizza in Atikokan. While enjoying my pie, I overheard a conversation from the table behind me . . . "Hey dad.  Do you think the phantomjug owns this place?"  I just smiled and enjoyed my dinner afraid to turn around. Kids got a good laugh too.

On the old forum I think I used 5-6 different names.

My husband was the one who got me interested in canoeing websites, first QJ and then BWCA.com.  Mainly because of the photography.  Because we are Spartans and a tandem pair (having met initially on the MSU Student Rose Bowl Tour in 1965, being MSU graduates, and having been married since 1967), it just seemed natural that we would be Spartan1 and Spartan2.  It's a teamwork thing.   Wink


Nice photo Spartan2; looks like you are having a great time enjoying the event.  My parents were Spartans also, and my mother was an art student that worked on the original Spartan statue in 1945 that was made out of terra cotta because of the rationing of bronze during the war effort.

Well my handle is because of my astronomy hobby; stargazer was already taken by someone.  My canoeing buddies take me along instead of a star chart in case anyone wants to know where the corona borealis is, or the names of other constellations.

Been gone awhile, and this topic caught my eye. In retrospect I always thought my name on QJ was pretty corny. I set it up shortly after my most recent trip, in which the wind seemed to be constantly in my face regardless of which direction I was headed.
I've always liked Magic Paddler. (love mine, too)

Wind-In-Face I am pretty sure MagicLover is still available.
