Re: What's the Origin of Your User Name?

Flylow is a spinoff from another nickname i had a while back. While working for a university media center as a student, I developed a reputation for being able to repair just about anything electronic that showed up on the workbench. So, there was some reference to Philo T. Farnsworth and, since my first name is Phil, that one stuck while I was there. Once I started playing paintball scenario games on a fairly regular basis the philo morphed into flylow. Seems that I have a tendency to do things quickly and quietly without much fuss. My motto is, "If it needs doin', let's just get it done." It's funny because my Dad used to always talk about getting things done, including getting from place to place as quickly as possible without anyone taking notice or causing a stir. His term was "flyin' low." So, his propensity for staying under the radar came full circle with me.
