    33 years and counting living in Vegas, and I focus mainly on Ball Pythons.

    I want to move east though (Virginia/North Carolina area)... Then I will have to rethink my username.

    Back in the mid 90's,usernames could only be 8 characters. AOL assigned this for my email and username. First initial of my first name and my last name truncated.

    Easier to remember one username, and everyone know me by it now.

    I used to train in MMA, did it for 3 years or so very intensely, hence "Octagon". Came across crested geckos around that time, needed a username for the repashy forums, hence "Gecko". The 729 is a hangover from some other usernames from when I was much younger.

    Well, there's 2 reasons for my name.
    1) My name is Kat and I was born in the year of the dog.
    2)Everyone remembers the show CatDog right??? ;)

    "Sorraia" is a breed of wild horse. One of the few truly wild horses remaining today. I think they are beautiful, despite their primitive appearance. Very few people know about them. The name is also very unique, so I adopted it as my online name. Once in awhile I come across someone else using the name, but that's very rare.

    (Sorraia info here: http://www.sorraia.org/general-info.html)

    I still remember the theme song...I am sad I know.


    My user name was a nickname that was given to me by accident so to speak. My name is Ernie. In high school I had a very close friend, John. I think at graduation he might of barely made 5 feet tall. I don't remember what was going on one day, but I was giving him grief and calling him Long Johns, a nickname he hated. He became flustered, and couldn't come up with any sort of come back, and just stuttered Ern...Ern...Erndogg. A couple friends over heard this, and it stuck. It never bothered me.
