I remember AOL floppies, then AOL CD's....

I made a mobile from the AOL CD's to scare the birds away from the fruit trees.

And fruit that isn't ruined by the birds.

Well mine comes from a lack of brain matter, which means I kinda dumb and a better name than what my friend, with whom I road to work with for 15 years gave me. Unprintable on this site. I called him DH and he called me PB.

My PF name comes from the architectural phrase..' Less is More.' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Less_is_more_(architecture)

As far as the rest of the PF name....well....Les is just a name and 49 is just a number.

Am I just a name...or am I just a number ?

Still figuring that one out.

I wasn't feeling too imaginative so I used my camera aspect ratio (nearly)

The prisoner (1967)

I do remember that show, but there was a previous British show starring Patrick McGoohan...Danger Man that came out a few years before.

Dangerman, along with The Avengers starring Patrick McNee and Diana Rigg/ Honor Blackman and then of course The Saint starring Roger Moore were my top TV shows in the 1960's. They were all British and to me represented well...that golden era of British TV.

There was also an American TV show called Man in a Suitcase, about a character named McGill who was an ex American secret agent, down on his luck, living and getting whatever work he could get in England. Great show, unfortunately only two seasons.

Yeah, well. It's my name.

Yeah right. Who in their right mind would ever name a kid 'Mark', instead of something sensible like 'Henrik Lodewijkus'?

bertwert · 03-29-2020, 06:08 PM

Not quite sure how I came up with mine... I guess second half of my name and then a rhyme? I suppose it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Well mine came about rather naturally, because I am one who walks (actually “sneaks”) softly, slowly and quietly through the forest. During such activity people have regarded me as a wolf for suddenly appearing undetected, though usually I decide not to reveal my presence. Unfortunately my stalking isn’t always good enough for the animals as they are often alerted before I can get any photos.
