My first car that I really learned how to repair things. Also first car I started customizing as well. Replaced engine/tranny and did all maintenance. Tokico Illumina Struts, Enkei Wheels, Drilled Slotted rotors...etc. I loved driving this car as it was soooooo much fun to drive!!!

Timco is a commercial airline maintenance and rehaul company in NC, big stuff. I did some business and compliance consulting for them about a decade ago as they started to “take off” (pun intended)

In my early twenties I used to joke with my friends that if I had kids I wanted two boys. I was going to name them Booker and Buster. My buddies picked it up and started calling me Booker instead.

I ended up with two girls named Grace and Claire. :)

Toppy is a spin on my last name that my late son used all the time. I use it in his memory, he passed away shortly after I purchased my car

Bald Eagle should be obvious... it was also my handle in college when I started losing my hair in my late teens.

That is a REAL nice model RR setup. I had to do a double take to see if it was a model RR or the real thing.

There was this old guy that used to come in to this bar daily when I lived in Oklahoma. By daily, I mean every single day. When his beer was empty he would, very loudly, exclaim, "Co Beer!" Me and my drinking buddies found this very amusing. So I stole it and added my childhood nickname, Toad at the end.

Mine was assigned by the company I worked for over 40 years ago. Computers were becoming prevalent in business and their format was the first 6 letters of your last name and your two initials. Since I used the same user name for over 30 years, it's easy for me to remember.
