At one point I had 5 '68 to '72's at one time. Now it's down to 2 '71's and a '70 Camaro. Made the wife real happy.

Two reasons:

1. It is the name of our current boat.

2. Boat got name from converting from gas to diesel engines, as in why are there so many.....

I tend to think son and hubby have a few at times, also.

Mine was from my other teenage obsession - Bodysurfing. My most respected surf spot is a place called the WEDGE, in Newport Beach, CA. The south facing beach and west facing jetty, during the right conditions double pumps the waves to HUGE heights. I've ridden it only on 2 different occasions. But, I'm danged proud of them. Place kills!

Wedge "Man" was taken.

I live in the mountains and I've been "Kowboy" for Ohhhh about 30+ years. It was my given handle from way back when.

this is doing better than i thought it would

Cochise · 09-30-2008, 11:17 PM

I used to be Joemama on other sites, but people thought I was a girl, I'm not, by the way, but it was meant to be like "your momma"

Fast forward to now. There was a "song" by the Beastie Boys, Sabotage and one of the characters was Cochese. Since I am not a big reading comprehension kind of guy, I spelled it Cochise. By the time I figured it out, I had the name for quite a while, so I kept it. My wife is named Dostehseh, look it up. When you look it up remember, my wife is MUCH prettier.

I wish I read this before I joined....nothing special about my ID....first initial, middle initial, last name without a K....

Thinking about re-branding myself as "Geoff with a G"

I used to do impersonations of Darryl Hannah when he would impersonate Sean Connery on "Celebrity Jeopardy" on Saturday Night Live.
