well its because in april '07 i got a scorpion and made an account on a scorpion forum and needed a name, and it sort of stuck for forums, and i always either use the same name or same picture (though i cant get any pic to work on here for some reason) or both on forums.
I get mine from the wife as she is always calling me it, I collect alot of wild fruit to make home made wine and i also collect herbs and other stuff so she started calling me hedgerow pete and i like it very much as its very descriptive
I got hit twice by a 'corky' ball twice in one games lesson at school. The games teacher called me corkyballs and the name stuck - 30+ years on my old school mates call me corky.
Was looking for an animal that begins with W for a while. At school we have a game called "contain the beast" where it's all on one wrestling basically. This is often me as I'm the only one that actually goes to the gym and plays sport. Someone said a scentance that had will-the-beast or words to that affect, so wilderbeast which sounds like wildebeest, a cracking animal......but more than anything, begins with W.
It's a take off of my nickname in highschool, I added the puppy cause it sounds a little more youthful than dog.
Well my name is Dave and many years ago the Kawasaki Motorcycle company brought out a shiny new superbike called the "ZXR 750" One of these.......
I was in a biker hangout called Matlock Bath in Derbyshire and was having a crack with the lads... At the time I rode a Honda 750/4 K1 One of these...
Anyhow on the way out of Matlock this dude blasts past me on shiny new green thing and I thinks "Not gonna happen" so I gave chase. Long story short, he had me on the straights but bottled it on the bends so over a 10 mile stretch to New Mills I beat him
When my buddies caught up one of them "john" said "Dave mate ya got oil all over your back tyre" Until he saw it was melting hot.. Jeez you're mad he said...... Voila it's stuck. I must admit though I do partake in some unusual stuff and do some really REALLY crazy things so I suppose it was inevitable

Its me name (well, Pete is) and as me surnames Ditchfield, it seems right for my whole name to be related to landscape, earth, agriculture or whathaveyou...
When I was growing up in SE British Columbia I had a summer job tending a little country gas station. Work was close enough to my parents property that I could ride my bicycle to work each day, but it was still well outside of town. Each morning I would open the station at 7:00AM after having ridden my back through the farms and down a little gravel track alongside the creek. Almost every morning a Great Grey Owl would be sitting on a fence post 6-8 metres away from the track. I would stop to look into those amazing eyes, whisper my greetings and then quietly continue on my way.
For those of you who have witnessed this incredible brid in the wild you will understand how this experience made a significant impression on me. Over the years I have continued to use the name on forums and as an email address. Later on in life I realized that I had adopted the same name as another anglo, but despite various misunderstandings I have continued. Even now, 20+ years later, each time I see one of these incredible birds my heart still misses a beat. It might only be psychological, but I do feel a very strong connection to this amazing animal.

At first light the humble sparrow lifts an eyelid, farts, scratches and tweets a good morning to the morning!

Happy days, a fair bit of my misspent youth involved racing to and from there in the late 60's/early 70's.
If memory serves, the 750/4 wasn't the best handling machine. I can see where the "mad" bit comes from.
I picked zorro cos I fancy myself as a bit of a gay blade.
My missus thinks I'm an idiot. She could be right.
