My name is James William, but I go by my middle name. My aunt and uncle started calling me Jwilliam years ago.

It`s where I live. Highway History sign says this area along the San Gabriel River was a favorite camping ground for Indians for close to 10,000 years. Bluffs on the north side kept the North wind at bay,huge oaks kept it shady with unobstructed South breese,and excellent water. I was so proud to live here Ikept telling people about it till they started to call me Draco Bob. I like just Draco better.

I happen to have been called "Yoda" by friends for years. I'm told it's because of the way I ponder things - often for to long - and the way I tend to speak: disjointed, convoluted and backwards. That sounds better than the short gimped-up funny looking guy.
Yoda was taken here so it was Jedimaster. One of my favorite things to say is a Yoda quote: "Do or do not... there is no try"
Do or do not ... there is no "try"

My first email address I ever used was "flatbow..." because that is the type of bow I like to build and hunt with the most.

But when I signed up here,that name was taken, I had always in years passed been accused of hunting with nothing but "sticks & strings" so I changed it to "Flatstick".

Barry Wensel was already taken so I used my name.

Well, my mommy and daddy gave me mine.  On a couple other sites I am known as "venor ergo sum"  It's latin.  Translates to: "I hunt, therefore I am"

I had a contest with my fly fishing buddies to name my dog.  Winner got a case of beer.  Since I paid for it, I decided to get double my money's worth.

I got a 1963 model 670 nova tote gote that I rebuilt from the ground up. Its the same one I use to ride when I was a child. It had been in the woods behind my dads house for over 30yrs. It runs great. I ride it 4 to 5 times a week.
I may give out but I will never give up.

When I used to be a compound shooter, I wore one of those camo face masks that had a slit for the eyes... it reminded my buddy of a ninja (his looked more like a bank robber to me), and he started calling me elk ninja because of it.

Morningstar is the model name of my canoe.  I always liked the name because it reminds me of the peaceful darkness before sunrise.
