Most usernames are uniquely un-decipherable, so why not let us all in on the mysterious meaning of your username!

My username comes from my high school track days. I was a decent broad jumper & 100 yard dasher. I broke my wrist in spring training football & could do neither track event nor play football quarterback with a cast on my right lower arm for all my senior year. I set a goal to run the 440 yard sprint in senior track with my cast on, but could not excel running that far.

My '13 Shelby has been my mental stand-in for running the 440 sprint (1/4 mile), since muscle cars were my other passion back then.

I doubt if any of this makes any sense, but when I hear "quarter mile strip", I think 440 sprint!

Mine is not that hard, at least for me.....It is my work vehicle, a Boeing 717.

Aleister Crowley - inspiring the song Mr. Crowley by Ozzy

Since there is a Crowley Texas and I live in Texas, I do get asked if that is what it means quite a bit :)

Wrote off my 40th Anniversary 2004 Silver Grey Metallic Mustang GT two months after I bought it, it was winter and I was too dumb to drive for the conditions. I wish that it didn't happen. The one good thing to come from it was I learnt first hand how hairy being out of control at high speed can be ... My Shelby was bought 10 years after my GT loss. I love my 'ford13', but will never forget my first MUSTANG.

I was obsessed with 5.0 Mustangs starting in my senior year of 1989 when I could not afford one. Now I've since owned 7 verts over the years with my last one being in the garage for 14 years. Birddoc , I thought you were a vet also! Lol

In the College Sports World...

"Go Dawgs!" is what people say in regards to the University of Georgia Bulldogs.

Everyone here says "Dawgs" rather than "Dogs" (UW: Wash Huskies use "Dogs") and makes sense when you hear a southern accent say "Dawgs".

I guess we have 3.5 months left before College Football!

Hmmm....I should have been more creative with mine now. But obviously just a nod to the bad ass cars we are all blessed to enjoy on this forum.

Old Front 242 Album Set the first album name was "End" and the second was "Up Evil". I did not see the album name, it was told to me and I thought the chick said Upheaval. The reason it is misspelled on my screen name is because without spell check that is how I spelled it, because I suck at spelling. So it is my email address now for 13 years. This is all back when I used to DJ.

Mine is based on steve mcqueen . I was all gm ,but I wanted to buy 1989 5.0 lx wife wounldn't let me. The s197 platform came out it reminded me of the movie. She said well if you want one so bad get a shelby so I did. A 2011 , but I ordered my 2013 and I now drive a 2013 f150 dd she still has her ws6 and her other gm suv. She likes the shelby.
