    Well uh.... I'm a dude and my name's Joey. yeah so that's how I came up with Joey_Dude.

    If you want to get further into why I came up with such a simple name when there are endless possibilities available, let's take a tour into my mind.

    I'm more of a relaxed kind of guy and the term dude can have a connotation of a pot smoker just chilling on a couch. While I don't smoke pot I can identify myself with that kind of state of mind. I rarely get upset and if I do I like to take a timeout and get away from the situation until I'm better. Since I have the bike sometimes if I'm not feeling right I like to go for a ride and I'm all better.

    And for some reason the type of people I get along really well with are pot smokers. There's something magical about discussing various theories from why religion is bull to the truth behind politician's motives all the while munching on some nachos.

    Also, I seem to have this gift or curse whatever you call it with people I deal with I can sometimes transform the most uptight and proper person into a laid back cool guy. There's this programmer at work I work with and he had a reputation for being a real straight arrow and always being the proper good boy. It wasn't too long before he started calling me dude and not getting stressed out when we had some problems with some software.

    Oh yeah and my name's Joey ;)

    I've been on this site for more than 2 months and I have not done this until today. As you all know my nick is "yoda6669". Yoda is self explanatory (As you all can see I'm a Huge Star Wars fan, Got a big SW collection and got all their movies). 6669 is the mark of the beast but with 9 after the triple 6. I get alot of comments from people back home that tell me that I'm going to have back luck cuz I'm using "the" numbers. Not true! My life is wonderful, have food on the table, moneys on my walleet, and a great family who loves me. :biggrin:

    I used to draw a lot, and I'd use very small ellipses for shading.

    I had purchased small hunting cabin in northern Pennsylvania (1989) and hanging on the front porch was a striking sign (professionally done) - “Cheyenne Social Club” members welcome. I had no idea what the sign and name referenced. One day my wife inquired about the sign, so I researched the meaning, then I watched the movie… well Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda and Shirley Jones played great parts in the movie, my wife never brought the subject up again, nor did I. But we sure did have fun at our Cheyanne Social Club. :rolleyes:

    mine came from back in the day when i had my 1971 mustang mach 1. i basically pulled the nickname out of a hat, and it just seemed to stick, as much as i use it. i miss my mach 1, but i dont miss it quite so much when i jump on my vfr and tear ass around town.

    I'm the Vintagehondarider because I have 5 of'em. All from '71-'85. The latest purchase is a 1985 VF500F Interceptor. Low miles, very clean and well kept.
    I also had a CB in my 1969 hugger orange Camaro in high school. It wasn't fast, but the glasspacks sounded nice!

    1971 Trail 90
    1975 CB200
    1976 CB500T (cafe project)
    1981 CM400E
    1985 VF500F
    When I brought home the Interceptor, the wife sighed and asked if I was done buying bikes. I said yes, but not sure if that's true!

    Ride hard or stay home.

    Mine's simply Wheee! FR. It's how I felt when I first rode a VFR. I'm pretty sure that feeling will not change any time soon. Dumb, but I'm an emotional guy.

    Now a Honda VFR. I like my unusuals.

    The jt is/are my initials. John Tewksbury. it just makes sure the name isn't taken, and I can use the same name on multiple forums.
