Taken from the original thread from last year.
Only difference I am now 43 and married for 20 years


I knew my wife's family since I was in grade 3, one of her brothers and I went to school together.
When we started going out one of her natural brothers and one of her foster brothers were my best friends (I was 18 at the time)
Her dad was a big old ex-cowboy who when he found out we were going out said.
"All these years I've been baring the front door against those wolves and you sneak in the back door with the yard dogs like a dirty coyote" of course he pronounced it Ki-yote.
For many of my close friends it is the name they know my by.
On some forums I am known as coyote but most of the forums I joined in the last two years it is coyotebc, because many of them already had a coyote on there so I added BC because I live in British Columbia (BC)

By the way just turned 42 last month and the wife and I have been married for over 19 years

There's not much hot news from Classical Greek Philosophy. My story is basically the same:

My name originates in a philosopher joke. That sounds like a contradiction in terms. Philosophers are not known for a lively sense of humor.

It happened this way. One day in the agora, Plato was discussing the whichness of why with his disciples. Somebody asked, “What is a man?” Plato replied “Man is a featherless biped.” That sounds silly, but it’s not the joke.

The joker was Diogenes. Personally I wouldn’t look to Diogenes for a sense of humor. He was a sour and embittered sort, even for a philosopher. But he was the original Cynic, so what can you expect? Nevertheless, the man was guilty of two philosopher jokes. One was wandering through Athens carrying a lit lamp in broad daylight. When asked why, Diogenes replied, “I’m looking for an honest man.” He never found one.

Then Plato defined man, and was much praised for his acumen. Diogenes heard the story and was unimpressed. The next day Diogenes brought a living plucked [censored] to the Academy. Diogenes threw the naked—and thoroughly irritated—bird in front of Plato and asked "Is this a man, then?"

Now you know why professors of philosophy don't make good stand-up comics. Plato amended his definition to “Man is a featherless biped with broad nails.”

If you tell this story in Latin, "featherless biped" is animal bipes implume.

reconseed.

A song by a band from new york city called "Recon Seed." I liked the song and when registering on here, I was listening to it. Not to mention that it has a tactical hint to it, 'recon.' I am soon to be on a career as an Army Officer and will be doing "recon" daily as a part of the Troop Leadership Procedures (TLP), so I thought it fit.

Good thread northern1.

I'm a blues fan and there is a guy named Jonny Lang who did 'Rackemup' on his first album. Great swingin' blues song. I also throw a stick (McDermott cue) around a little bit...

Very cool,I saw Jonny Lang open for B.B.King once. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Well, I havn't been around here in a great while until very recently...but have started to find a little more time to surf the net lately. I saw this thread and thought that I would join in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I was stationed at FOB Speicher in Tikrit, Iraq from FEB. 04 until MAR. 05

I always did like that name..."Speicher" and I am proud to have served my country, both on and off the battle field. I was an 88M (transportation)we drove the M931's, M818's, 2 1/2 ton's etc... and pretty much hauled JP8 (jet fuel)in the 18ft. 5K tankers. Good Times <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
