How long will it be there/here? Has The Dive enrolled itself as a summer camper for summer-2022 at https://camp.mvymca.org/camp-lawrence/ ..... :)

What a a wonderful and beautiful and fulfilling place to spend its' Dive summer on Lake Winnipesaukee.

Could The Dive become a long term Camp Lawrence camper, and return year after year, and always look forward to returning to this south Bear Island summer camp?

Hey there steve-on-mark ...... maybe you'll be wanting to change your name to steve-at-the-dive ..... :D ...... just looky here, what done did move on into this here neighborhood ovah the weekend?

You know I can see it very well from my little cottage on Meredith neck, and it really has some excellent visibility with that afternoon sun and setting sun shining down on that big white Dive box barge and the natural green forested shoreline, over there. Such an excellent location! Me-thinks it can be very comfy, there ...... a new home for The Dive?

Steve-on-the-dive...I love it...got a nice ring to it! I can see it now...Views from the Dive!!

Dippasan
 
My nickname growing up was Dippa which is a play off of my last name.

My Father In Law (RIP), nicknamed my son Danny, Danielsan from Karate Kid ("Danielsan...paint-a-fence") and at some point he started calling me Dippasan

Fun thread by the way

Thanks

Yup...same with Steve C. and steve-on-mark, yet even MORE plain...it's simply my name. No 'net anonymity required. (Although I coulda used some after making the outrageous and misinformed claim here back in 2002 or so that there were actually ROCK BASS in the Lake. People thought I was full of it...or something that rhymes with it.) ;)

mcdude 06-06-2022 05:02 PM

Many years ago I was running a summer program for disadvantaged kids and they liked to play Tetris in the computer room during break. They encouraged me to join them and I was hooked to the point that I won!!! .... and had to add my six letter name to the winner list. The kids encouraged me to put "mcdude" .... and there you have it. I've been known as mcdude where I worked but also as "Mickey Dee" .. (btw my name is Mike McDavitt)

steve-on-mark 06-06-2022 05:47 PM

Lot of cool stories so far ( except for mine and Steve the Spy's [emoji16] ) Don't be shy!

Blue Thunder 06-07-2022 05:31 AM

Mine is a little convoluted as well. I own a 2000 Four Winns Horizon. It has the “Captains Call” exhaust which is a feature where I can turn my obnoxious loud exhaust on and off. (It wasn’t obnoxious 22 years ago…) The 1983 movie Blue Thunder starring Roy Scheider (Jaws) was about a fictitious Metropolitan Police Department that used a state of the art helicopter. It had a feature called “whisper mode” so it could fly in close undetected. I had a 33 year career in Law Enforcement and my boat is blue…..so…..Blue Thunder it is!

I guess I could’ve just said it’s the name of my boat but what fun would that be?

A friend of mine had the same boat...his wife told him he could buy a motorcycle or a boat, so he chose the boat and referred to it as " my Harley".

It's the abbreviated address of my favorite place on the big lake that our family had to sell in 2012. Brings back memories of nearly 45 summers in one spot.

Stole my wife Sammie's nickname........have been warned not to stir up any trouble.

Another stolen name
 
Our daughter was Sue Doe Nym until she moved away, at which time I stole her identity.

steve-on-mark 06-07-2022 08:19 AM

I see a lot of tv commercials about identity theft....I guess it's true!!!

Poor Richard 06-07-2022 01:31 PM

Poor Richard comes from a couple things...

The short version is, it's a euphemism of sorts and it also happens to be the name of the font I use for my company.


The company font aside, the longer PG-13 version is:



On another forum, in the for sale section there were always a few members lowballing or, my favorite, "I'll have the cash in 2 weeks, can you hold it for me?" When in actuality these individuals never seemed to make a purchase on anything ever........ever.

From that, the term "brokedick" was eventually the label those select few had to live with and me being me, I found that to be exceptionally entertaining because of how it played out on that forum....that and it was simply the perfect description for these folks.

Anyway, as I was signing up to this forum, I wanted to use something different than the name I generally use and so I drew inspiration from the company font, had a chuckle and went with it. :D



NEXT!

My husband gave me that moniker after one too many boat rides where I questioned his captains ability. All in good fun, tho!

Susie Cougar 06-07-2022 05:02 PM

Like many of you, who chose your nickname from your boat or a motorcycle etc., I also took my nickname from my car.
Back in May, 1969, for my birthday, before my junior year of college, (Belknap College ) my parents bought me a turquoise, Mercury Cougar convertible with a white top. What a beautiful car! When I showed up on campus, driving all around Center Harbor, everybody started calling me Susie Cougar.

(My first name is Susan)

Maybe an avatar with a photo of the Cougar with an inscription something like "My '69 Cougar".

I am old enough to remember when the Merc Cougar came out in '67 however many here likely never heard of the car.
