I was ZO6Vettever. Avatar says it all. For some reason I could not log on as ZO6Vettever and registered as KyWstJoe because at that time I lived in Key West. Lived there about 33 years but now live in Deltona Fl. I still have a ZO6, maybe I should try that one again!

Bob (or Uncle Bob being his full name) was the finest Springer Spaniel in the world. He's been gone quite a few years now. He was a big one. He loved to hunt and he loved almost everybody. He was tough, but gentle. We called him Bobby. Even though there have been others, since, I still miss him very much. If he's not there waiting for me, I aint goin'.

My understanding is that heaven is a place, that when you get there, all the dogs you ever loved come running up to meet you.

For the only firearm that I like more than a classic Smith & Wesson, the Winchester Model 52. The finest 22 rifle ever created!

M2= M2 series Bradley Fighting Vehicle (Infantry)

Mike Golf= Army phoenetic for "MG", in this case abbreviation for master gunner.

I was a Bradley Master Gunner from 1994 until I retired in 2008.

I've been shooting competition for many years. When one of the "youngin's" start talking trash and would sort of challenge me.

I would say, "Well I'm kind of Old & Slow. How much are you going to spot me." So, my sons-in-law, that shoot with me, started calling me Old & Slow.

Mine's a small half stack, a Blackheart Handsome Devil head with a BH112 cab. Just right for jammin' in the house. Used to gig back in the late 60s early 70s but quit when the drummer died. We were tight. Got back on guitar in late 90s because I missed it. Not playing too much now as I'm aging and disabled.

when i was a teenager, i would hang out at a local hot rod shop with the older guys. one afternoon the owner said if i was going to hang around i needed to do something. everybody called him Tork..
he taught me everything i knew back then about building hot rods and when the other guys would see me building something they would say i had been "tork'd" because i did it the same way he did..
has been with me ever since

English Cocker Spaniels are called 'engies' in the UK. Now retired, my constant companion/partner in crime is my Engie Finley. I've been dubbed the Engieman by wife and daughter.

My user name is from a character in one of my favorite movies, "LadyHawke".
It also just happens to be the name of a town I live close to. (coincidence)

I started using my name quite a while ago when I got an Xbox. I'm a huge Star Wars fan, primarily the darkside, hence the darkside part. At that time I was an EMT so add that to make darksideemt. I am a medic now but just always use the darksideemt to not change anything.

I'm a car guy, I like old or old style music and I loved the music selection of vice city that I played back in 02' when it was new to practically to death.

and I just so happened to see the pilot of Miami Vice when they were running it as a promo for the film back in 06 and saw the daytona and wondered wow, what is that thing?!

I looked it up and found out it was replaced by something called a testarossa in S3, which being primarily a lamborghini man, specifically a countach man I didnt know what the hell it was so like all curious people I looked it up on youtube and found this:

KAVINSKY - Testarossa Autodrive - YouTube

and at the time I was looking for something that would be a good online name and that name just so happened to sound like something my dad used to call me when I was a kid which was Kevinousky, so seeing as I liked his music in addition to that one, namely these tracks:

Kavinsky - 1986 - YouTube

Kavinsky- Wayfarer - YouTube


I adopted the name and have stuck with it ever since.

I have been called Captain Torque Wrench for a very long time; there's a story behind it. Actually, two stories: the family-friendly version and the truth.
