MrDe ... stands for Mr. De ... a nickname given to me by a kindergarden class that couldn't pronounce my last name; de being the first two letters in my last name.

Then you probably know the infamous wail was made by an airhorn and not the plane per se.

Shouldn't this be a winter thread?

Make sure to check out funbike center (kearny mesa area, off the 163 & 52) when you are down. They expanded the other year, and they are HUGE now. Used to be little itty bitty, but now they are a monstrosity!
Hey Jason, your on but it will have to be in oct.or nov. ? i will drop you a pm when i get back take care tim

My Real name is Joel and MrJoelieC (Prounoced Mister-Joel-EEEE-Seeee) Is my Screen Name/Nickname. Here is how I got it:

I was in High school at my first job as a stockboy in a grocery store... I was at that awkward age in that I was not quite a Man and not quite a Boy...LOL Women were noticing me but yet in a way they were afraid to admit it cause I was not really in the "IN" crowd...

Debbie one of the cashiers had no hang-ups about the "IN" crowd... She liked everybody and everybody liked her...She was not the pretiest but she sure could turn heads though with her sweetness and she was just one of those genuine people that nobody could find fault with...

I was in the back working the truck load on the run cutting the boxes open for the other stock boys. Loading the "U-boats" by isle number as it came off the pallet. I was working with one of the store managers (Tim) and one of the "IN" crowd (Todd) that everyone wanted to be like...

When In walks Debbie who at the time had this georgous long black curly hair and was wearing the cashiers uniform that was almost a size to small making her look as if she was making this once ugly uniform a peice of clothing that would have had her on last weeks cover of FHM.... She saw me, saw Tim the Manager, and looked at Todd of the "IN." A smile came accross her face and she thrust her chest out and raised her arms and shouted "Joelie Cee! You sexy thang give me a hug."

I of course looked confused... I mean who in the world thought I was "Sexy?" So I Turned towards her with the biggest dorkiest smile on the planet raised my arms and shouted "My Lover!" As everyone looked on.. Even Todd dropped his mouth "In Shock." I looked at Debie and proceeded to recieve not only a hug but a somewhat sloppy kiss from Debbie.. I almost fainted...

Tim the Store Manager who had quite the reputation as the "Smart Ass" looked at her and said: "That's Mister Joelie Cee to you and me! And don't you forget it"

10 years later at my 10 year high school reunion I realized I was not the unknown geek I thought I was... I realized this as I had a line formed around my table filled with peopl who could not wait to give MrJoelieC a hug. My Wife was not as impressed as I was.. 20 years later everyone still calls me MrJoelieC.......

Alice In Chains is my favorite band, and when I started learning to play guitar I only wanted to learn AIC stuff. So Jerry Cantrell became somewhat of an icon to me, hence jerry 1 a b or jerry wanna be.

Yes, sir, it was a wind-powered siren under its nose that made that infamous wail. They didn't actually have it all on stuka's either, because it gave the slower aircraft extra drag.

Hey, this is a anytime fun thread, dontcha think? When is winter anyways, I ride all year long.

Currently have the VFR, a 92 Accord and a 00 Odyssey. My Chevy's feeling a bit out of place.

My name is Japanese for "death god". It's a nickname I picked up a long time ago, from an instructor at a well known shooting school, after a Simunitions run in which I waxed all the instructor "bad guys" in a very efficient manner... ;)

As the beers were being handed out I asked the same guys "Is that enough action for ya?" and I've had the nick name ever since.

You must have had some friends in high places at the Pass and I.D. office too! Great knickname. I don't think it would take a space shuttle designer to figure my screen name out.... as it didn't take one to come up with it, ROFL!
