Where did your AV name come from?

[Partners]

A man and wife who share everything together.from harvest to washing dishes. From crop planning to taking turns vacuuming the house.

Together 24/7.

My sister was teaching in Taiwan years ago and I needed an email address to comunicate with her. I had the most wheat acres seeded ever for myself that year so sask wheating it was. seemed fitting to use it here as well.

I always got a kick out of hopper bin for a handle.there is alot of good ones on here. Really good imagination out there!

[STR1]

Letters from an off farm company I started several years ago and now I have partners involved hence the #1 after letters.

[checking]

Inherited it. Had I chosen it, it would have fit with long ago, and far away teaching days

Has nothing to do with looking up facts, so gasfarmer is wrong again, and that is a fact. lol Only hope to maintain all my errors.

All the red ink circles. (sigh!)

[samhill]

My Dad's expression (to my knowledge he never used swear words) when things went south.
Kinda tells my farming ability.

[hobbyfrmr]

I started farming at 18 because I really wanted to farm. I ran my own lines of credit and circulated money for the industry. I expanded and worked harder and built bins and grew more grain and didnt make much profit. I was introduced to organic farming and with much objection slowly realized that business model fit well for me. I dropped all my rented land so as not to risk failure on those people's property.
The farmers around me grew exponentially.About 3 years of decent crops and decent revenue I realized I was doing financially better than I was when conventional on less acres. Ergo, I am just a hobbyfrmr compared to the mainstream trend in ag. Im not really against conventional farming, I now see things from a different angle. Im just a guy trying to figure stuff out, pay for my shrapnel and keep the lights on. Not much different than any other farmer.

[buzz]

Its a high school nickname I got in the 70s, still a few old friends use it.

I think I got it because I reminded my friends of Buzz Lightyear, "To Infinity And Beyond."

Really...not because of some of the other mischief we did when we were young and irresponsible.

[Ache4Acres]

Haha samhill. I think I will have to use that. I try to not swear around the kids. Now it will be "what in the samhill, I need more acres".

[Braveheart]

My name came from my Great grandfather whose first and middle names were, William Wallace, although spelt William Wallis. His brother was named Charles Stewart. Plus they wanted to call my Uncle, Robert Bruce, when he was born.

Interesting set of names. I just like the freedom connotation. Legs look good in a kilt too. Lol.

[dak7]

Nice story Braveheart....I picture you like Mel Gibson in the movie, painted face and big sword.

Not so creative here. My initials and hockey number.
