What does your username mean?

So you know Fortran then. Man you are an old bugga. Of course I just heard about these things. My schooling in Key Punch goes back to when schools rented time on huge computers in some non descriptive building down town. early 70's. Who would have thought. Now you can get, what is is 8 gigs of memory on a chip smaller than the size of you pinkie fingernail. I have one of those in my Ipod. If I fill that sucker up with music, I will die before I get a chance to hear them all.

 

F**k It Drive On

It's an Army thing.

 

I have to admit to it being a guilty pleasure of mine too. Something about the Hawaiian vibe and that sexy Ferrari. I still want one of those! Thanks TC!

 

Mines pretty simple, I go by my middle name David/Dave, my last name starts with R so my friends call me Daver. The s14 is my other love, 1996 nissan 240, sr20 swapped yadda yadda...

 

My last name is Jones.

 

I almost died because of the show! When I went to the island in the early 80's I decided to take a swim off the beach in Maui, you know just like Magnum did. No life guards and no one on the beach except for my buddy who was with me. I went out and got caught in a rip tide! When I was not able to swim straight back to shore l realized what I was in. I was lucky read somewhere about these on the plane or hotel and what to do and not do. I had to drag my buddy from the swimming hole where they cliff dive on Oahu, so I know he couldnt help me. If I called out for him to get help I knew they wouldn't get there in time and it also would be a sign that I am saying, I cant make it on my own. Well I remembered what I read and started a diagonal swim to shore. I had to use a combination of every stroke I ever learned and some free style along the way. My friend was watching from the shore and was a bit worried because I got so far out. He figured because I was not yelling for help, I must be ok but still kept an eye on me. When I finally made it back to shore I collapsed and thank the good lord my lips were touching sand on the beach and not the bottom of the ocean. He came up and asked "You ok?" I said " I am now!" Lesson learned, Im not Magnum PI and I dont go swimming in the ocean !

Username

My username got started with my hispanic neighbors. Every time the guys saw me out in the yard, they'd yell "ooooh, mamasita!!!" And the first part is because I used to ride an SV.....

 

Hey Jason!

Hmmm... Joey_Dude, could that have been him? Joey, are you about 4'9", around 60 years old, and speak fairly poor English? hehehehe.. Hey seriously, I love my hispanic neighbors! They are the only ones I know by name on my entire street! )))

I still haven't met Joey in person, but I know he is working on getting a North GA ride together in a couple of weekends. I would absolutely love to get together with the GA Vifferonians, but I am also heavily involved in the BMW Motorcycle Owners of Georgia Club (Rallymeister) and have to attend a club meeting with them in Macon instead of riding in the cool mountains.... sigh..... I'm looking forward to meeting you guys one day, especially Joey! ))

Sigh.... yes, it is so.... we got elected Rallymeisters for the GA Beemer Boys last year, and we did such a good job they want us to do it again in 2009. After that, no more! We worked like dogs for months for a 3-day event! I'd rather spend my time riding around on my yellow bellied monster!

Actually, Joey, this is an "old" German girl looking forward to meeting you....lol!!!! ;-)

FATSO1277 - name i went by in my snot nose days in the mean streets of suburbia. i was a whole 125 pounds wet, so i figured i would use a big tough name like FATSO to put the fear in the hearts of evil-doers. Ironically people only addressed me by my first name MIKE...go figure that one...1277-my birthday.

 

User Name

Wow. Isn't it great that we can suddenly bring back a little something we read or heard some place when we are in dire need.

As frightening as the incidents was. don't you agree the experience was just great anyways. Otherwise you would probably not share that with us.

I love the water and am confidant in it, but I do appreciate it is an incredibly powerful element of this planet.
