sooo....I would post quite a bit....and several people could not figure out who I was.....then I believe Doug Harden figured it out (kept it to himself...) then a few more. It was somewhat of a joke because every once in a while, a 'poor unfortunate' would post something like "Shut your Pie Hole, Pink Martian" thinking that I was making something up..........and of course, we'd all laugh.......

shift forward to a thread....and I don't even remember what the subject was at the time, but suffice it to say it was one of those where tempers and passions are very much evident.

I had tried to make a point...and kept getting flamed by two people. Now....I was sitting in a Hotel Room out in the desert after a long hot day of filming...and it was around 1am and I'd had enough.....lost my temper....and 'outted myself'.......well....kinda.......I said "you're right! What the HELL would I KNOW???? I only WORK FOR GM and my initials appear on several hundred thousand Camaros!!!" (yeah....I know....grumpy, arrogant...oh well......) and of course it clicked with a whole bunch of people........

The Fbodfather name is another story.......I'll post sometime. It was given to me by the Hudson Valley Fbody Club.

See...I don't know where to start....do I start with how I got in the business? If so, that's a whole history lesson going back to about 1895......(no smart remarks, Pacer or I WILL use that buggy whip on you)

(and regardless of whether you'd like that or not is BESIDE the point......... )

I will go to Barnes & Noble and put a deposit down on this book now (a joke from another thread).

Seriously, I'd love to read something like this from you and am glad to offer whatever help I can proofing or reading drafts, etc. I think you'll have more offers of support and help than you can honestly take advantage of.
