I did a quick search and couldn't find anything pertaining to this, so here goes...

What does your username mean? Any particular reasoning behind the username you chose? Funny story?

Lets hear it!

So I'll go first.

I got the nickname FrankenJeeper a couple years ago, I was working on my JK, running wiring and coax for my CB, and I was rushing trying to finish up and was cutting zip ties with my knife, and was in an awkward position, and unfortunately made the stupid decision to cut "slightly" towards myself.

Turns out my Buck knife was sharp enough that it was a very clean cut, but the stitches looked hacked up, like something outta Frankenstein, and a friend gifted me the name, FRANKENJEEPER.

I'll share. Well my last name is yorke (E is silent) and growing up all my teachers and other parents would pronounce the E, Yorkie, so it kinda stuck and it's the only modified nick name I enjoyed (tea cup Yorkie didn't really stick!)

Fir-Na-Tine is Gaelic for "Men of Fire"........I'm a Firefighter......and we are a brotherhood......so I thought it was fitting.

Cozdude. I have had it since I was 12 or so.

When I played travel hockey there was 3 Stevens on the team so to make it easier we all got called by our last name. People shortened my last name from Cosgrove down to Cos. Cos has stuck across the board for everyday use even at work lol

I grew up in south Louisiana fishing, hunting, and spent time on boats. When I joined the Air Force they started calling me Cajun because they had a hard time saying my last name. Here I am at 50 and that's how people still know me.

I bought my first Jeep shortly before becoming a wayalife member. The day I picked it up I told myself that I will always own a Jeep from that day forward. I was hooked!

Canvas is from my first carrier squadron. We flew the SH-60F and HH-60H helicopters. We had a saying that Canvas has you covered, which means not matter where you go we are there to help. So I figured it was only fitting to put it as my JK's name and figured why not make it my screen name.
