| Re: Where did the name come from Mine is pretty stupid now, I joined a few years ago. At the time I did not know ANYTHING about tractors, and I did not know how addicting this site was. I could not imagine I would be using it after I bought my tractor. But now I have learned alot from all of you, and I try and help out when I can. Just don't ever make your logon "the new guy" because if you like the place you will forever be labelled "the new guy"

| Re: Where did the name come from And here I always thought, "Gee these tractor guys have strange family names, but who am I to judge."
Here it turns out most of them are made up.
Shame realy. I think Farmwithjunk would make a great family name. You know, like Arnold Farmwithjunk (III) or perhaps Vin Dieselpower or maybe reginald Dumbdog.

| Re: Where did the name come from Since this is an international site I wanted to give information as to the general location in my name. I'm in the great state of Texas and my name is Don. I'm in central Texas, close to every thing and far from every thing.
I Grew up, went to school and worked in the large city but when I retired I choses to retire to the same rural central Texas County my ancestors immigrated to over a century ago.

| Re: Where did the name come from Woodchuckie because woodchuck was taken 3 1/2 years ago. I use woodchuck on several other web sites and first on a squirrel dog site where lots of the user names were woodland animals and also my first name is Chuck. |

| Re: Where did the name come from "Podunk" in the American Heritage Dictionary:
NOUN: Slang A small isolated town, region, or place that is regarded as unimportant.
I just added "adunk" on the end.
Could really apply to anyone who lives out in the boondox. |
