What’s in a screen name

#101
Realized my wife & I were being stalked by 5 Latinos in a parking structure and that I am no longer the intimidating young guy I used to be...now strapped everywhere I do.

Yep, Losi was and still is huge. I hadn't touched anything RC in about five years until we bought a DJI mini 4 pro. That has re-kindled my itch for RC. Probably gonna drag out the scalers, crawlers, and possibly even my 450 heli at some point.
That's really cool! My parent originally got me into it to help teach me some patience. Took about a five year break, and just got back into it.

I used to drive huskers on occasion....

This is 4lo rear locker on

Lil extra crazy even for the breed



Then there's this prima donna... Has to absolutely have soft things to lay on but he's the overdrive. After he tells you about all of his problems he will finally work. Most mouthy husky ever talks back like crazy

I will see if I can't come up with a catchy little song with the word penis used often.

Although I can be a bit immature. You should hear the way I have butchered the "Brady Bunch" theme song. I have determined, in retrospect, there is, indeed, something wrong with me.

Mine goes back to the 1st forum I ever joined about 20 years ago, ArcticChat.

The 'mi' is for Michigan, and I had just bought an AC 650 v-twin 4-wheeler, hence mi650.

Actually, it was Pat Boone's cover of "Tutti Fruiti" that used "Bam Boom" at the end. Little Richard was always "Bom(p)Bom(p)_" at the end or some derivative of that (some YouTubers add the "p" at the end, some don't.). Richard covered this in many intervews about the song.

Furthermore, he also gave hints as to the song's original lyrics before they got "censored." Think of the human anatomy, and then think of something that rhymes with and sounds a lot like "Tutti Fruiti" (i.e. replace the "Oh Rootie" lyric). :ROFLMAO:

To me, CAS is the "Chemical Abstract Service...." They produce the ID #s for pure Chemicals. As you can see, I worked for a huge Chemical Co. in their IT group and I actually developed their Safety Data Sheet system.

I have had to compile an MSDS book for some jobs I have been on. Dangers of PVC glue, Cadweld (tm) exothermic welding materials, etcetera. Talk about some tedious and boring reading.

Mostly on Manhattan Construction jobs and Austin Construction Group jobs.

Shut up, you're blowing my cover story.
Most people think it means cowboy action shooting or close air support.
I tell people it's calcium sulfide so they'll think it means chief of air staff and not suspect Abstract services. Shhh....

So mine is kinda lame. My godfather was named Elmer (Uncle Elme. Loved me like his own!) and he was my dads best friend. The kind of freind that if Dad got in a tight spot Uncle Elme was quietly slipping on leather gloves for the ensuing ass whooping that would be served as best as possible. He was a brawler in every sense of the word but as kind hearted as the day was long. Anyways, he was a baker by trade, a biker, and a his hobbies included stamp collecting and photography. When he succumed to bone cancer (I was 10) I was l gifted his Nikon F2 as an inheritance. I've never forgotten him or that final generous act, still have the old camera somewhere, and it created a bond to the brand. Hence the user name.

Mine is what it says, slaying waves! Some old guy yelled out after a wave and said, "you slayed that!" My ugly twin brother turned to me jokingly and said, "waveslayer!" We laughed and it kind of stuck!
So now it's a joke being from a small surf town, San Clemente, CA. its awesome to freak out these liberals talking about hunting and shooting. In fact I have gotten several guys way into guns that I surf with, so doing my part to spread the love! Ha ha

One of the great joys in life it to unravel the meaning behind a nickname. It is often rare for someone to receive any nickname that is badass like "Iceman" or "Maverick". I would like to believe that most of our nicknames are a double entendre, and contain a hidden meaning.

Mine was given to me by Tom Manners of Manners stocks. It was when I had just started working there, and he was trying to get my attention to ask me a question. As he stumbled through trying to remember my name, he said "Shortbus". Todd turned and looked at me and said, that's your new name. The rest is history.

Nah. But, if @waveslayer still lives in the vicinity of Trestles....I'd be super stoked to go catch some waves between Jan. 8 - 13 if he'd loan me a board(I'm bringing my wetsuit) Or, tag along n' go send some rounds downrange at Camp Pendleton or Pala. I can only bring one of my toys when I visit the peoples republic of San Diego. One of my surfboards or one of my rifles. ;)

Good to know. I thought it was an adaptation from dialog from the Team America movie.
