Dry Rod and MacFly have indicated we should have a screen naming contest to change my handle from EPCJMC to whatver. Currently the screen name concisits of both my wifes' initials and my initials. I have a Super Fat Cat from santa this year and its ready to be tricked out - got a few ides, some flagrant copying off the web sites, and some surprises. I am still in ice mode as of this writing. Bad knees make is very hard to paddle, and Santa as also made me reluctant to bring aboard a trolling motor, but something I finally think I must do. Be prepared for that, I am also attaching the fishing buddy sonar, and other gear. Have at shot at the screen names. I can handle all the pressure. Maybe I will send a bottle of the world famous smelling wisconsin Dairy air as a gift o the winner. There are so many cool names already used on this site here, and I feel like I need to upgrage. and i quote not "DRYROD asks should we have a contest in picking you a new handle? = I saw lets do it."

That is kewl that you are asking for our help. I will help to get the ball rolling. If I win, I will donate the Dare'are.....ooooops Dairy Air to another State. California has enough stinkys around here. Someone might think that the air is contraband or something.

There are some cool names here - I also think this is sort of fun. Just a thought, but I think I would like to expand a bit into the float tube tube forum and hear from some of those guys as well. There are some awesome screen names there.
Frankly, Other than starting a thread on that board with my initial post from this one, I can not think of a way to get these combined/accomplished. Maybe some of you more seasoned folks oknow of a method?
My thoughts are to two leave this post for a few more days, and combine all the names into one post - this way everyone can see at once, Then I will pick 3-5 of the best names I like, then leave it up to a vote from the general population. I live by the vote - no matter! I can accept that as I have initial screening rights to pick the 3-5 from in the first place.
Thanks for the support - Eric

maybe one of the moderators can help you but I would think you could put a quick post on the other board with a link to this one so anyone can read all that has been said.. in most cases once someone has read that first post they will remember to go back as a followup..

Go ahead and start a new one over there. I can keep a running list of names on both of the boards for you since I am a co-mod on both boards.[cool]

I did check the other site, but TubeDude took the kick out of my flippering . . . so I shut the contest down with what was generated so far.
I do like the SuperFatCatManDoo though! I could also go with that one.
To me - TubeDude is like an anointed being on this site. Almost reverend!
