Post user names

I have noted many, many of you have creative user names, but some I'm too dense to figure out.
Would this thread be allowed to ask what significance your user name has ? or whay you choose it ?

dorgunr is my Illinois plate, I was a door gunner in a Marine Helicopter in Viet Nam.
Also in the old days we'd say we were going to blow your doors off when racing.
So a dual connotation.
Who's next ?

My name comes from the name of my favorite song: Atom Heart Mother, by Pink Floyd. Its a 23 minute instrumental, on the album of the same name. Isn't that special?

My name is actually a nickname from friends that went to college with me in Florida, They figured out where I drove from and thats the first thing they thought of, Tundra. Of course it was before toyota decided to make one. Well, it stuck. Only a select few actually knew my real name. It was weird hearing everyone NOT calling me that when I finally came home.

For over 10 years I've had Super Charged Rides(Not Turbo's). So Life begins at 8 Pounds of Boost. Long Live the Pegged Boost gauge!

Since I live in Georgia and my Lightning is
White [white lightning] and georgia used to be premium "Moonshine" territory...hence the
name. In fact when I was a kid my uncle gave
me a geniune Ford high speed liquor hauler but took it back in two days because he needed the money. I could really tell you some stories about moon hauling from many years ago.
