Everyone says that the characteristics of my golf game (i.e: Hitting it out of bounds often, but able to get out of most trouble. Ballsy plays that don't always go my way. Good short game, and an imaginative mind. Can hit it long when needed. And I USED to have his hair too, but summers here and that would be a little too hot down here in 96º Florida) resemble that of Phil Mickelson.


But I'm a righty.


It's a long name, but hey, I like it. Just call me RHPM.

When I started using others forums I liked a song which is called "atrapasueños" so when I first registered in the forum I used that name and used it for every forum. "Atrapasueños" in english is "Dream Catcher".

Regards!

Stiffdogg06:

The stiffdogg part just is one of the many nicknames I had while in school. My older brothers got the nickname Stiffy, Stiffdogg, etc in Football in middle school. When I started playing football in 7th grade, I also got that nickname so both of my brothers and I have these nicknames.

The '06 is the year I graduate High School.


Jared - I would like to use my initials but when I do people think I am copying Atlanta for some reason. My initials are ATL.

Wannabe -- I really wannabe a frequent golfer breaking 80 & such, but other priorities keep it on the backburner. really love it and am a huge fan, and one day will be able to play & practice enough to get where I wannabe. Until then, I watch, read, play & practice occasionally, live it vicariously through others, and keep dreamin' the dream.

Mine came from a stuttering football coach. We were encouraged to dress more formally on game days.

Back in the early eighties it was considered cool to have monogramed clothing.

Game day...I'm wearing a monogramed sweater. My initials are
W-G-W. Coach saw me coming in the locker room and tried to bust on my sweater, "Looka here-ruh, dubyah
gee dubduddubdubya".

My teamates often chose this bit of stuttering to laugh about. The nickname Dub stuck.

Mine is certainly not original, but my wife and I married almost 10 years ago. We tend to spoil each other with affection as well as material things. We started referring to each other's situation as spoiled rotten. When we purchased our 33' 5th wheel in 2005, we did like most do a ship, and named it SPOILEDROTTEN . Since then, I've used that name on all forums. The wife uses TotallyRotten, and the 12 year old uses ALittleRotten.
