Are the new guys new guys or did some change names?

Went by Tomhorn on the original site. Had considered haveing Hobie change it to my name. Registering here solved that.

If anyone missed it I used to go be Saloon Slug but I changed ny handle on both forums.

Andrew · Post by **Andrew** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 11:25 pm

My old name was stupid( see below) and I am glad to have a simple name that represents me well. Ya know, cause it's my name.

BTW, Ysabel Kid how do you pronounce that? I have probably been botching it up(in my head) this whole time.

It is pronounced "sable"; rhymes with "cable". The "Y" is silent.

You can see the cover of the western from the 60's in my signature bar. JT Edson was a western writer out of England. I've read almost all of his stuff. Someone said that the Ysabel Kid reminded them of me, so I read the book and got hooked. that was 25 years ago.

The Kid and I had the same taste in armament, attire (in my youth), and a similar heritage. I guess that is why my friend thought of me when reading it!:D

I've been pronouncing it "IZZABELL" in my head this whole time.

Y silent, of course....

You know Jay, if you had change it to Ksabel - you could have been Y2K

JR - raining here off and on probably too warm to snow in the passes if you are heading this way.

JReed · Post by **JReed** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 12:03 am

Been rainning here for about 2 hours had to go stand on the poarch for a bit and watch. I will say you are a lucky man nothing smells better then rain in the desert.

Don't worry, that's how us normal people pronounce words that start with "y".

Yes that is exactly how I was "saying" it too...

blueroan · Post by **blueroan** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 2:37 am

I kept trying to log on with the old name, didn't work!

Tried to register and that didn't work very well either. Did some cursing and then threw myself on the mercy of the administrator...and got back here finally!

I was EDK at sixgunner and shiloh and blue roan at other places. Blue Roan is for the big Appaloosa that was my oversized baby for 30 years and is buried down the hill from the house.

Names don't mean near as much as who you are...some of the old crowd from sixgunner; some new people that I like pretty well already. I'm back among family.

Happy holidays ..... whatever we call ourselves

Being a certifiable schizophrenic with complete ids in both personalities, I figured it was far simpler to just use the one screen name. Especially as it's what I answer to more than any of my "REAL" names!

WHELENATOR · Post by **WHELENATOR** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 1:21 pm

I was the "452 RossiMagnum" or something like that. I only fool around with the forums during the winter months. Alaska is too good to miss in the summer so I don't surf the web much then!

oldsawfever · Post by **oldsawfever** » Wed Dec 19, 2007 1:40 pm

Howdy, Folks

I'm Still "oldsawfever" here as there, that name is cause I've been collecting old Chainsaws longer than Lever Guns but not longer then I've been shooting.
I got my first gun at age 9, A single shot Remington 12 gauge Shot Gun.

The next year in 1970 I got a Remington Nylon 66 bolt action by mowing yards and I've still got it. Yea!

Not sure what happened to the Shot Gun.

Since I started using this screen name on many forums and other sites over the past 6 years seems like more folks call me Gunz than by my other nick name "Bob"

You'd need to hunt for it. Some used book stores may have it - but I doubt it. You can probably find a used one cheap on line at Amazon.com or somewhere like that. I always check for reprints when I am in book stores, as there are a few I never got, but some book stores don't even carry westerns any longer!

I saved all of mine, and I'm reading them to/with my son. It is a good time for us to bond!

One of the things I really liked about the JT Edson "Floating Outfit" series is the continuity of the characters. That and his attention to detail on the firearms - I really learned a lot just reading these books!
