Papa Zoom. I did not give myself this name. A friend from church was visiting with his 4 or 5 year old son. When they got back home, the kid said, "Mom, I was at Papa Zoom's house."

From that day on he called me Papa Zoom. I had a long beard then (moderately long) and we've still no idea where that name originated in his sweet little head. But there it was and here it is. Papa Zoom. I rather like it!
 
The (Kidron) Valley is located on the eastern edge of Jerusalem, between the Temple Mount and the Mount of Olives. ... In the Old Testament, King David crossed the Kidron Valley to escape his wicked son Absalom (2 Samuel 15:23-30).

This is a unique area in Israel, that has an interesting biblical history.
Ive stood there.

I was choosing a name to write under. It's after my grandmother whose name was Theresa.

Okay cool, thanks for finally explaining that part to me. I always wondered about that. :)
 
Tony Curtis played a character named Antoninus in the 1959 movie SPARTACUS
I spelled it with a numeral 9 to be weird

Kirk Douglas played Spartacus - at the end of the movie, when his whole army was defeated - the enemy honcho asked "Alright, which one of you is Spartacus?"

Guys kept getting up and yelling "I'm Spartacus!"

"I'M Spartacus!"

I'm SPARTACUS!"

The first username I ever had on a message board was Habakkuk3

it was shortened to Hab - there are people on other boards that still know me as Hab or Habs

I have also been/still am 2 places -- Episcopius -- once was GruntHemlock

and perhaps my favorite:

DancesWithGnostics
 
i have a history of having trouble with things that get wonderfully resolved when i learn God's truth about what to do or think

God's truth is what always sets me free
 
I've explained before, but that was a long time ago
To make it short, I used to want to be a Collie breeder, and Questdriven was going to be my kennel name. My username across platforms are a few variations of this, on other sites it might be questdrivencollie or colliequest
