A few years back I was really into online gaming. Played the daylights out of Duke Nukem 3D, Quake2, Quake3, Unreal, Unreal Tournament, UT2 and UT2003. I ran a game server on my cable modem and I called it Kwikkordead. The message that was displayed at the beginning of each round was:
Ye be Kwik
or ye be
DEAD!!!
Muahahaha!
Now I have too much grey hair to keep up with the younger guys, they just bitch-slap me around now. LOL. So I don't play much any more except for UT2003 - Bombing run. I still get killed constantly but it's fun.

Well everyone calls me skeeter because of my 2004 skeeter boat. The numbers after the name was the representation of my name throught the long 16 week police academy. By the way the skeeter was my grad. gift to my self.

I love my truck, but motorcycles are my passion. I have had quite a few of them, but there were two favorites. The first was a modified 1970 Norton 750 Commando that was great fun to ride, but needed waaaaaay too much TLC to keep it running - when all I wanted to do was ride.
The second was a slightly modified 1975 BMW R90S that was almost as much fun to ride, required little maintenance and fewer repairs, and carried me everywhere at a time when I had the freedom to go there.
R90S = arninetyes

I work for Freescale semiconductor, and when we are in the cleanroom/ factory, we talk on walkie talkies. Being as my mother owned a trucking company while I was growing up, talking on the radio was second nature to me. After I started throwing lingo from the highway around in there.........Well most of them have only had one trucking incounter in their lives. You guessed it, the movie Convoy. Kinda lame, but that's what everyone calls me at work, so I use it. Not to mention my blue dually with stacks in my gallery reminded my mom of one of her Peterbuilts I used to ride in alot during the summers. It was No.3 so I named my dually No.3 I guess that's it. By the way excellet post, I have been curious myself.

my first truck a '90 F-150, was a Bright red 5.0 and i was known around high school for the "red truck with the deer horns on the front" now, i have my white '95, when i sold the 150, i kept the horns, and they found a new home on my '95s grill. when i was in the Corps of Cadets at A&M, my class year was to graduate in 2006.

Da’Moose, a nick name that started at work.
In the shop that I work in, way back when the boss and I shared the same first name. One of the guys would get confused and decided that one of us needed a nickname. As I was the new guy I was the one to be named. I am a large guy 6’5” and 255 lbs so it started off as ‘Moose’. I grew up in Northern Michigan so I needed to ad some of my local dialect, so ‘the’ sounds like ‘da’. So there you have it I am ‘Da’Moose’ to the many people that I deal with at work around my state. It is kind of funny that some of the people that I deal do not know my real name and have a problem when it is time to call me or send me a E-Mail.
