I chose this one cuz it's kinda my name.. Go Steelers!!! :steelers:

I use the name iffy on just about everything but this forum....I'm a libra Blonde by birth Lived in the same village, same house.. my ENTIRE life I have limitations..haha... iffy sounds more sophisticated than DITZ.

I had been reading this forum long before I ever posted. Then one day a particular subject kind of ruffled my feathers.....and I thought to myself....WELL... I've got SOMETHING TO SAY about that. tah dah!

my username is my nickname and my wedding date!!!!

I'm not sure how I came up with my username.

I acquired my user name by way of the US air Force and the Vietnam conflict. I was an on-the-ground Forward Air Controller in Vietnam in 1966 and 1967 and I was attached to the 101st Airborne. We went out into the field (jungle) with the Army artillery and when necessary called in air strikes on targets and in some cases actual battles. Anyhow, there were a group of us that were all attached to different units and our call sign was Ragged Scooper 01 or 11 or 21, etc. depending on which unit it was. I just thought it was a neat call sign and had a really nice ring to it when said over the short wave radios several times in succession. So, I chose to use it when I had my CB radio in the 70's and no one could understand it. Guess it works better in print!

:flag: very cool, ragged_scooper!

Yep, that's my brother :slap: :stick: :w
