Millie had to be put down 2 years ago and it is still on my mind every day. And honestly....I do not know how to change the registration/ profile on this forum. Photos of the car also. I guess I could re-register under a different name. Sorry to all of you for this confusion.
That's cool. Just didn't want anyone gettin' the wrong idea. (Not that there's anything wrong with that...)

I had a similar but different (if that makes sense) deal with my "Frodo" moniker. It was accidental, in a way, and admittedly kind of a dumb choice. You see, I had been 'lurking' on the forum years ago but hadn't ever bothered to register, content for awhile just to absorb what others wrote. Finally one day one of my sons sees me reading some post or other and asked why I didn't join. Told him I just hadn't bothered, hadn't really even figured out how to do it.

So he elbows me aside at the computer and starts to do it for me. When he got to the point where he needed to enter a username, he asked who I wanted to be, a question I wasn't exactly prepared for. Not having really thought about it, I just sort of blurted out "Frodo", the first thing that popped into my head. (I think maybe we had recently seen one of the Lord of the Rings movies, IIRC.) Thought I could just change it down the road to something I would be happier with...didn't realize that (as far as I can figure it) that can't be done. Soooo, 1,074 posts later, I still be Frodo. It's still a goofy choice, but it's sort of grown on me, I don't mind it anymore...
