Private Klink named me. I think it was the hat. Avatar was a pic my daughter took of some crazy old man in the back yard.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

This is a test to see if I finally figured out how to get a pic on my avatar. If it works, it is a picture of our little hiking buddy at the white tank mountains and my first Scrap Yard knife, a Green/Black Scrapper 5. My forum name IS my last name. Weird enough that people think it is a nickname or a joke. You can laugh, I am.
Love the Scrap Yard Forum and I'll try to post more.

Hooker was also the name of a Yankee general who always had plenty of camp followers with his troops. They called the camp followers, Hooker's. Despite that, it's a fine family name.

They were called Hooker's girls when he rounded them up and made them stay in area of town, and allowed his men to visit them at an appropriate time. Great for morale ya know.

Ignore that man in this post. He gets out every once in a while and thinks he can shoot skunks. Just read his tag line if you don't beleive us.

Fightin' Joe was truly a man of vision, ahead of his time. Grant didn't like him much, though. Maybe he was too drunk to appreciate the Hookers. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Avatar is just a pic that I thought was appropriate for this forum...hence, The Yard and Junk yard dogs...etc. And, I just like the avatar.

KnotSlip is just a variation of SlipKnot which is a metal band that I like a lot.
Nothing too fancy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Avatar is a slightly modified version of the Netto logo (european grocery store chain). Thought it was funny to use it here and the color makes it stand out.

The name is the sunglasses I wear, Oakley Monsterdogs, a forum name I use a lot. Just serendipitous that it fit so well here.

"When a group of officials came to see Lincoln about the rumors of Grant's drinking, Lincoln is supposed to have said, 'If it drink makes fighting men like Grant, then find out what he drinks, and send my other commanders a case!' ".
