I like this thread, I will formally introduce myself
JBYRD88888 Justin
Jay BIRDs fly right? I hope to own a pilots license someday.
Actually a nickname given to me as a kid. . . I like heights.
Guesses what year I was born? I like B88Bs, y not stick a y in there?


I built this on the ground and friends help me hoist this thing 35 feet in the air.
Part of an old neighbors deck.....

Perfect spot to watch local fireworks (from a close park, and neighborhood) on the 4th.
And my best friend, that encourages me the most! He mostly stays on the ground and watches me fly; but he can take off like a bullet tooo!

Edit: This was my shizz as a 5yo

I worked for Frito Lay for 18 years and no matter how long they knew you they still called you chipboy even being 30 |+ years older than most so that was my choice, after all everyone called me that. for a lack of creativeness I also took my age at the time and that is it. Chipboy44....

It appears no one has done this in quite some time, but I have no life, so why not? My name is John Quackenbush, and my Uncle calls me Jack Quack because it rhymes (still don't understand how Jack is a nickname for John... before my time I guess). I was born in 1978. Ta-Da! *crickets*

It's my ex-wife's cat's name. I use it on most sites I'm a member of. The Media likes to claim it's the character from one of my books, but that character's name (Snark) was taken from the cat as well.

For the origin of the name, look up the book, "The Hunting of the Snark." If you're a southern AZ desert dweller, it'll also answer your question as to where spiny Boojum gets it's name.

Just plain old Kat was taken so I picked #2. Which I am not--just gave someone who thought I was their walking papers. Poor guy will remember me. Sadly, I will remember him, too. But for not too long. How can anyone be sad if they have banana plants?

First letter of my first name "S" then the first half of my last name "Put" then inc as in "incorporated".... Mad it up as a kid, always an entrepreneur at heart I guess...

Oh, the 7 you ask? well, I was originally sputinc@aol.com many years ago. When my X left with some 18 year old she met in a chatroom, I stayed off computers about a year or so... When I tried to get back on I was locked out of that account, so I picked the number 7...

Varieties I supposedly bought: Manzano, Cavendish, Blue Java, Sweetheart, and Gros Michel.
What it seems I actually have: Brazilian, Cavendish, Namwah, Dwarf Red, Gros Michel, Pisang Ceylon, Veinte Cohol and SH 3640, and American Goldfinger. FHIA 1, Paggi and FHIA 17... Always room for one more.

Some would say 7 is lucky; 2 has never been described that way. Hmmm....maybe I should ask a mod for a "name" change? Nah. I'll just remain Hertz here and keep trying harder.

I commercial fished in Alaska for 10 years and when I got a land job the guys I worked with gave me the crusty barnacale nick name. It goes with my last name which is Barnhill.
