My screen name is one given by a marching band director when I was the leader of a sousaphone line.
The avatar is a bit of a joke and I often say it is a picture of my soul.

jewman was the nickname I got in high school. and 22 is my favourite caliber rifle.
MSO489 derives from the USS Gallant, MSO 489 -- minesweeper oceangoing -- on which I served '69-'70, off the DMZ of Vietnam, as a radioman, a now defunct rating. The Navy boot camp in San Diego where I trained closed long ago. The minesweeper's homeport of Long Beach is now a commercial port mostly for trade with China. Midway Island, where I also served, and which was a pristine nature preserve, is now beset by plastic waste and has no Naval station. USS Gallant was featured on CBS television at the outset of the first Gulf War, interviewing crew members about the coming conflict. In the nineties it was sold to the Taiwan navy and re-named. The ship appeared in the movie "Easy Come, Easy Go," with Elvis Presley long before I ever saw it. The hull was made round-bottomed entirely of Washington Spruce.
I chose irishearl just because Peterson is my favorite brand and my family lived in county Antrim til 1840. Technically, we were Ulster Scots as the family came to Antrim from Scotland in the late 1600's.

Avatar is taken from one of the many games I've played. I was gonna Photoshop a briar pipe in initially, but decided to go with a lowly cob as a reference to the name of said game. The bear in that game also shares a name with me.

My name is from the area of Scotland where my more modern ancestors settled, the Ettrick valley in the Scottish Borders where we’ve been since the 16th century. Our DNA includes Pict which means we were here before the Scots came over from Ireland.
The picture is me smoking my late fathers Peterson as I spent my last night in my childhood home.
Happy smokes

Skatutakee is the next hill west of the one my house sits on, where I watch the sun go down most nights. Avatar is me.
My username is a nickname from high school based on having Amish-lengthed mutton chops and disposition. 30ish years later and I am still known as Amish to a lot of people.
