Forum Names

[weretiger13]

My brother-in-law was really into D&D (dungeons and dragons). He came over one day w/ his monster guidebook, flipped through it until he arrived at that picture, and said that it was me. My family agreed, and the name stuck. I added 13 on to it because it's my favorite number.

[ffemt8978]

I've been doing Aircraft Rescue Firefighting since 1984, and aircraft are often referred to as "tincans with wings"; hence, Tincanfireman.

While I was doing that in the Navy, we referred to ourselves as the "Smash & Crash" crew. B)

 

[brassguy]

How I came up with my forum name....... I play trumpet, French horn(my favorite), and sometimes baritone and I am a guy!!

 

[akflightmedic]

AKFlightmedic


AK = ALASKA!! NOT ARKANSAS...Learn your states people....

At the time I was a flight medic there. I use this name on several different forums, everyone calls me AK on those sites and have known me for years as such, so I guess I am stuck with it even though I am no longer working or living in Alaska.

[oldschoolmedic]

It was an idea based on how we used to treat the patient not all of the flippin' machines we hook them up to now. Once upon a time pulse oximetry, blood glucose monitors (remember chemstrips), twelve leads field interpreted, the new-new-newest ACLS/PALS/BLS, LMAs, computers in the field, CPAP, powered stretchers, etc... were just a dream. We had to learn, improvise, and adapt.

It's also a mild commentary on the work ethic of those coming along now who insist they are going to save the world from the dinosaurs of EMS. Come see me in twenty years and we'll talk.

My newest partner was three the first time I met him.... when I was his father's partner. I bet I irritated his Dad no end, cuz I was gonna save the world from the dinosaurs of EMS.

Go Rampart 451 !!!

[Ops Paramedic]

User names?

How did you decide on your user name for this forum, what made you choose that specific one?? It is just interesting to see some of the names used and i often wonder about it.

Add to this signature quotes which are also great to read, and makes sense.

Just wondering...

 

[ErinCooley]

My parents named me Erin, I married a Cooley!

 

[paramedix]

I am not a paramedic, I'm an AEA (Ambulance Emergency Assistant) and decided to use something different that would still have some sort of meaning. "Paramedix" Ever since I've been using the username...

Regarding my signature, I strongly believe that you lay your life out the way you want it. Hence the signature...

 

[medic_chick87]

I think my sign on choice is pretty straight forward: I'm a chick, I'm a medic, and then the year I was born.

As for my signature... I evidently look like I'm 16.

Plus during my internship both my precepter and my partner were literally old enough to be my father, so I guess the saying kinda stuck.^_^

 

[fma08]

FMA- Fargo-Moorhead Ambulance, the place where i'm in medic school... and just got hired as a basic, and 08, i graduate from medic school this year. as for the sayings, you can find em all over the place, so i just picked a couple i liked

 

[MedicPrincess]

started as a joke, after some guys at the FD were giving me a hard time. my son marched up to them, looked the cheif in the eye and told them to "leave his mommy alone, she is a princess!"

Then I got my EMT...and was EMTPrincess for a 3 years.....

and now I am a Paramedic....and since everyone has been calling me Princess for so long...I figured Goddess would confuse them all ....so I went with MedicPrincess....

My Pink Stethoscope, matching Pink Trauma Shears, and matching Pink Gloves go along way to continue the "image" B)


As for the signature.....its what I told a someone one day after being told to "slow down" when I talk for the gazillionth time
