Screen Names and AVIs

[Silentlemon1011]

You should read about the real life set. They had parties that you wouldn't believe. Centered around partner swapping and drug use. This was 1920s - 30s Kenya, mind you. Alice was a bit of a tortured soul. From my reading, she was most likely a legitimate manic-depressive with suicidal tendencies. She ultimately committed suicide and when they found her she had every personal effect labeled for who would get it. Call me an idiot but I have a soft spot for crazy women.

I think ill do that.
I'm on site Downtown Toronto, Site super tonight... looking after 2 sub trades... so I'll be on my fucking phone all night lol.

Night shift brother?

I always wondered who the woman in your avi was. I could tell the pic was old but she looks very pretty.

Not these days, although I'm more suited for night shift. It's an interesting read, brother. I'm in the machinist trade..some of those parts tale an awful long time to machine, especially when you're working with certain metals. Time for reading whatever you're interested in lol

She was considered a beauty and she was an heiress from a wealthy family.

 

[Iron Vett]

The screen name was my first internet source from back in the 90’s. I added and extra T at the end to differentiate the two names a bit. Surprisingly a few people have remembered him.

My avi’s change time to time to document that I do indeed lift lol

 

[Sven_Northman]

Sven comes from my families Norwegian ancestry. Though not my real name, I considered giving the name to my son.

Northman comes from a favorite character of mine in the Vampire book series that started in 2001. Dead Until Dark and the 13 more that followed written by Charlaine Harris.

Then they made a series on HBO about it that sucked called True Blood. That ruined it for me. I watched one episode and was hugely disappointed.

I'm a hardcore Aprilia fan. My avi is a custom replica of the 2014 World Superbike Championship winning Aprilia RSV4 Factory works bike. Not mine.

Between 2007 and 2011 I owned a heavily modified 2004 Aprilia RSV Factory V-Twin sportbike I rode exclusively on the track. Trackdays are hugely popular out here on the West Coast. One of the best times of my life. Then my son got older, priorities changed, and the bikes got sold.

Heck...you should have kept the bike for your son when he's old enough to ride. You would have then lived vicariously thru him lol.

Norwegians are quite the hardiest people on the planet...much respect.

Nah, that bike had alot of hard miles on it. I wringed its neck relentlessly.

I'd love to teach him to ride when he's a bit older and have him join me on the track though.

 

[BIG74]

Just stumbled across this thread, figured i would chime in, i chose mine cause others have said i look big, and i was born in 74.

Can you write the programs on CAD for making parts or do you mainly just run the equipment?

I write the programs using cad/cam software and run the machines

I program all the things. What do you want?

Except what you do and how although I can muddle my way through fixing a CNC I am horrible at programming them.

 

[tauras66]

So mine is my year of birth.. 66 , and a misspelling of my Astrological sign Taurus, which I didn't realize until recently.....lol

Lol, and Millard would actually fix that for you if you ask him.

 

[Bluewhistle]

I tried to think of 2 things that have nothing to do with me at all. Then the avi just fit.
