That's not really true - Elton John's real name is Reginald Dwight I
believe.

Come of thing of it, you may have a point. :)

A long time ago, I wrote a short sci-fi story and used the Myron
Fredrick as my "pen" name. One of the editors that my Dad knew looked
through it, pronounced it acceptable, but a name change was necessary.

I asked why and he said that nobody was named Myron. When I said that
Myron, Fred and Rick were the first names of my best friends, he asked
what's Myron's nickname?

Doug I replied. :)

D'Oh!!!



Reginald Mantle III, in case you are into comic book trivia.

I understand your mom named you Sal****er Tom because she found you as a
babe floating in a wicker basket among the cattails along Long Island
Sound. Is that true? :}

I can think of a few reasons. The tires will develop flat spots

vehicles in Florida over the summer while we're gone. It takes
a few
weeks of driving around before they go away.

Another traditional reason is security. It is much more
difficult to
steal a trailer and boat if there are no wheels on the trailer.
It's even harder if all the stored boats are locked up in an
active fenced storage facility where no one is allowed to move
boats except dealership employees, and there's a watchman. It's a
huge facility, and the grounds outside the boatyard has a number
of other high value clients. Oh, and there's a watchman service.
This is not your average mom and pop boatstore operation.

Yep - keep on thinking that.

With all those other boats, why would someone mess with a LTP?

;)



It's mildly funny when Shortpants Tom says this, but when a boating
numnutz like you does, it just makes you look dumber than usual.
Your comments, after all, are based on what? Your imaginary trips
across the dangerous waters of Lake Lanier?


Harry,
This was not suppossed to set you off, it was a little joke, since
you seem to like the same joke made by SWS, Eisboch, and numerous
others, I didn't think it was **** you off.

I do have to tell you I really don't have any imaginary boating
experience, all of my are real.


Sure, Reggie. Just like all your 50 IDs here are real.


Yes, they are just as real as HK, SWS, JimH, Eisboch or any others.



Everyone knows my real name, just as they know Tom's real name and just
about everyone else's real name here. The one posters who work so hard
at remaining anonymous are the a**holes like you.


I think Reggie's real name is Reginald. He just wants everyone to *think*
that's not his real name. Hell, if you were named Reginald, wouldn't you do
the same?

I'd rather be named 'Sue' than 'Reginald'!

JohnH might be right, but the thing is, you don't believe anything I

don't believe me when I mention my boat, my wife or my 3 kids in
