Originally pREDator, then shortened to pRED. A combination of my initials RED, and Pre (Steve Prefontaine).
I'm an aggressive runner seeking trophies, much like the creachture from the movie "Predator".
Also, I prefer "pred animals over prey animals". Mostly cats.

Mine has nothing to do with the three little pigs or any strange abilities. Its a combination of my first name and my maiden name. There is another Huff screen name on here but I can't remember who. Wondering if we are related.

Mine goes back a few years when I first started hanging out on the web. It's a reference to my days when I worked in the art department of a commercial printer. Back in the day, we would take camera ready artwork from customers and have to make negatives on the old camera in the darkroom. I have fond memories of mixing fixer and developer with little ventilation. At least I think they were good days, killed a few brain cells back then. Dead

Having the surname Stickland - I was always "Sticky" from school onwards....I added the "1" when my children started to be called Sticky too, just to enforce my seniority Tongue
The best route to run is one which takes you furthest from the staff canteen....

    I completely miss the smell of photo chemicals (well, except for those chemicals used to print color-positive from slides...yick. That crap has a warning to women of childbearing age. Nice.). Cry

    I changed my screen name!!! It's still stupid. Someone already had Anya, so I had to put a little dash after it. How stupid is that?

    Zoomy,

    I was thinking your Zoom-Zoom name was because you are into photography not driving a Mazda. It works either way.
    Those who try, fail! Those who do what it takes to succeed, succeed!!

    Pretty simple actually. I'm sure we've all heard the line from Forest Gump "Run Forest Run". Well when you combine that with the fact that I run, I'm a dad, and at the time I created my profile, I was 27, you get a screen name. Tongue Wink
