    Many years ago when I first connected with this interwebby thing I was trying to think of an email address & after smoking some hootch I was staring at the dog (a border collie) I came up with The Borderdog and I've been using it ever since on just about anything I sign up for.

    Starky has always been my nickname for 59 years. The Starky name was taken so I added 14 which is my birthday date.

    The Yowie Bait bit comes from the saying 'The last rider on the trail gets taken by the Yowie'. I am always last as I like being the Sweep.

    I was known originally known as homer cause my surname is the same as the tv show he was in.. Then one day I sunk a monster put on the 18 th green to beat my 3 brother in laws and one yelled out" homer you dog" then I was known as "homer dog" . Being Australians we like to abbreviate everything so then it became Hdog for short and it has stuck...

    'livo' is my nickname from back in high school (short for Livingstone)


    My Dad and Pa always got 'livi' but I somehow ended up with 'livo'. Generation gap, I guess

    I got christened Mudrat in my trail riding days, as I always managed to find some mud on every ride. That was taken, so given I'm in Oz
