How did everyone get their name/handle?
Well, it's the same as my AIM S/N, because I'm used to it and remember it. It comes from my first mechanical hobby, a '69 John Deere 112 lawn/garden tractor my grandfather bought as a non-running parts tractor and we fixed it up together. I've still got it, plus the one he bought himself new in '74. johndeere112, and jd112 were taken on AIM, so I just swapped the numbers to the middle, and here I am.
Was one of the fat kids at our grade school, so got used to the chunky nicknames. Ties in with another tag/sn i use: The Goat. Mostly for my long red goatee, but also cause i can out eat many of my friends.
Always spelled it 'fattmann', tell people "two ts and two ns", just so it would be different.

Random side note- anyone know why it's always the fat and/or creepy guys that are into vans?
My friends give me tons of **** for being into vans, and you only see heavy set or creepy guys into vans..
Lol sorry for gettin off topic.

My intials (JCP) and birthday (Jan. 23)
On some sites I also go by Muskrat James - long story short, one of my winter hats looks like a dead muskrat, and thus it started.
Fattmann - I'm 5'7" and 125 (in other words, slim despite my beer intake) and I'm currently tooling around in a conversion van. The brand shall remain anonymous, but suffice it to say it has the larges engine they put in them that year, TV/VCR (I don't own any DVD's anyway) a bed in the back, and curtains. Will roast tires all day and has good jump from a ~20mph roll. What's not to love?

2) I took the e's out of my last name
so original!
I inherited a 68 Deere 4020 that threw a rod that put holes on either side of the block from my great uncle and I had always wanted one before that. put a new motor in it now I do 20 acres of hay and counting with it. FarmBoy comes from the fact that I'm starting farming on my own and I work on one farm year round, and live and work on the family farm, and in the summer I work for whoever calls first.
48'fordster because I have a 1948 F-1 and I want to make it into a roadster/hotrod/cooltruck so 48'fordster looked good and about the ' after the 48 instead of before is so that people woudl ask abou it. haha
LinkinLuver07 = lincoln luver and the year i graduate 2007
I always have loved those old (and new) Lincolns. its just something about them that i can't put my finger on it.
Guess I'm just a Lincoln-Mercury kind of guy
