I selected the current Steemit Name because it was available and I use this a lot...
I started out on the 'Web 20 years ago, and like most people in the US, I started with America Online. They try and set you up with your initials and a number, so I had that and it used "RGR" in there, which is related with my real name.
Segue to the next part... Rob Grey. There's your RGR! It is also in the name undeRGRound, which I selected when I was banned from another forum, (wrongfully I might add) I saw the word UNDERGROUND contained my signature RGR that I have had since the beginning. So I adopted that. 😎
As for changing my username, I'd prolly use "ROBtheKNOB" as it kinda rolls off the tongue LOL 😂 🤣 Don't you think? I do have an alternate identity on here, for the Minnow Boot Camp, and "The SARGE" came about. Disclaimer: I am NOT a Veteran, but I came from a long history of vets, my Dad, who sometimes I call the "ULTIMATE Cold Warrior"... he was actually on a troop carrier at the START of the Cuban Missile Crisis, and they were told to be prepared for ANYTHING. Up to, and including going Directly to CUBA. Of course this did not happen, and he was glad to actually come home. He was on his way back from Germany, he got to see the Berlin Wall. When it was still a real Barrier.
Both grandfathers and my son are/were also Vets. So I have the utmost respect. IN FACT, I may be fulfilling the greatest desire of all veterans, and that is being of a generation that had no wars, if even for a moment. I was steered away from military service by nearly everyone, and I do feel slighted in a way. Would I change this? IN A HEARTBEAT. But I am grateful that we did have a time frame where there was relative peace and that we did have HEROES that have made our freedoms possible.

Now it is Trackable ;) I also hope that I get "Some Love" like some of the other folks I've seen! I was even TAGGED 3 times for this, could have been a FOURTH, but my friend 
😛 😜 😝
I actually did this for my good friend and peer among the #steemsilvergold crowd, @PAWOS. It was his first time "Tagging" me, I guess he did not know any better. 🙃 lol
There's my Tag Trail, and they all better vote me UP 100% if they know what is good for them 😱
I guess it's time to nom-nom-Nominate 5 others, like @Pawos (Panther Woods, Tiger's little brother) says, It's an Invitation! A lot of my old friends here on Steemit have already been tagged and BAGGED, so I got dig deeep... Let's go with the #MINNOWBOOTCAMP Tags and maybe an #SSG or two. Hmmm...
because he's been flying under the radar for too long :D
who is a fellow "minnow trainer" and like the MBC!
because she's apparently not busy enough at home, with the baby and baby minnows LOL!
who is not very busy at all, he's just working for an ICO of blockchain shipping containers...
: I know his real name, his screen name is based on it but there must be more to it than that, and he's the luckiest sum-buck on Steemit as far as Raffles and Silver Contests go. He's winning nearly EVERYTHING! Seems like more than 1/2 the ones I see him in, he wins something LOL!!! He won a prize in both my contests this year! Oh-Dub, I have your Tracking #'s if you DM me buddy :) Finally sent the goods, and since it was late I threw in a little extras in my FINEST
Rip-Off Tradition! Maybe it's close to that good, I hope. Old RAY lifts the bar HIGH!!! 🤴
in the contest got at least an Extra 40% SILVER HALF and a SILVER WAR NICKEL. Even
! Our Grand Champion 8 ozT BAR Winner. TELL US ABOUT THAT NAME!!!
OK, there's SIX, maybe I can get one or 2 to respond?
CHEERS!
See Ya!
...as always, "excess VP is burned off" in my comments section ;)
