Re: Shark Drag Nicknames


Curt Nichols
 

So, here are some ideas for nicknames, I'm just throwing them
out/up/whatever. If you can match them to the person, maybe they're okay;
otherwise, well, blame it on the Paulaner.

Ice (moreso than Goose?)
On Yer Case
Chef (do you sing, too?)
Lefty (does anyone get this?)
No Trace / Not a Trace
Bear (think "...in the woods?")
Blue Note
Blowout (no, I wouldn't wish this on Tom)
Chum

That's it--I'm tapped, so to speak. Not enough Oktoberfest in the house to
suggest nicknames for everybody.

BTW, I'm okay with "BITWIZ." Better than "GEEK." Heck, I still own the
domain name, I'm just not doing anything with it right now. Probably
should have tried for the same on my WA plates instead of settling for 173
LAA. ("CON BRIO" wasn't available.)

Actually, "Chum" was nobody in particular, I just threw it in.

Okay, this could be really geeky, but I think it could be a lot of fun.

I want to put nicknames on the backs of the Shark Drags T-shirts. Below is
what I have come up with so far. I need help on a couple of names, my own
included. The people with *'s are "maybe's" that haven't yet committed to
race, but haven't told me to go jump in a lake either, or whom I haven't
heard a response from but showed an interest at the dyno day.

If anyone is not happy with their nickname, wants to change their nickname,
or have no nickname on your shirt, let me know. I don't mean to offend
anyone, there are no hidden connotations, I'm just trying inject some
humor. Okay, here it goes:

Louie "The Professor" Ott - Self explanatory, right?
Terry "The Enforcer" Redinger - Terry's a big guy, I'm glad he's my friend

Tom "Mongoose" Middleton - Tom is a true enthusiast, and has the racing
spirit
Rob "Dolby" Fossett - Rob is a car audio god
Curt "Beta" Nichols - works with computers, plus Beta is a fighting fish
Chris "Spitfire" Ford - its a British thing
Lloyd "The Prophet" Johnson - Lloyd has an introspective demeanor and a
long ponytail, kind of reminds me of a modern day prophet.

Adam " " Birnbaum - help me guys, don't rip on me too
badly!
Phil " " Wilson - Phil is new to the group, so be kind.

* Andy "Thrasher" Pope - Name just fits. His Car in for repairs, may not be
ready
* Nick "Goose" Daffern - Nick's a commercial pilot, doesn't know his
schedule for June yet
* Mark " " Rosenfield - Mark's in the restaurant biz, no response
yet
* Ray " " Henson - Ray does crime scene testing and
investigation, he hasn't committed yet, but I'm supposed to talk with him
tomorrow.

I think you can get a feel where I'm going with this. Let me know if this
is a good or a bad idea.
