I know, not original, and the one I wanted was already taken, so I used this.

As they used to say on the dairy farm, "manure happens".

Yeah but for a simple minded guy like me, it's fool proof.

I was actually more concerned about using a particular vehicle as my user name and then the vehicle gets sold, wrecked or whatever.

When I first joined FTE, I was looking for information on my 2000 Ford Ranger XLT Sport 4x4.


I had NO IDEA of what to call myself, so, I joined as 00BlueOvalRanger.

I almost joined as "Old Fart Sharpshooter", but I didn't think that would sit well, with the admins.

Sure beats "Oldgrayhairedfartwithabadattitude", also, doncha think!?!?!?




(Now, what did I do with that devil emoticon???)

When I joined FTE, I was trying to figure out what was wrong with my Ranger that my mechanic, who was an idiot, could not diagnose. I no longer use him and do most of the work on her myself. There are times, such as when I forgot that the plug wires don't just go 1,2,3,4,5,6 , that the name still applies.

Mine is the first part of the first email address I ever used when I first got online back in the late 80's/very early 90's.
Saw no need to change it. I get confused easily enough as it is, I didn't think it necessary to create multiple personas with different usernames everywhere I visit. KISS philosophy is what I live by.
