It's really a subjective thing certain things trigger mental images ie;

Something to do with Major Panic always reminds me of the novel "catch 22" remember "major Major Major" ;)

KiwiGeo always makes me think of Dad, he's was born in Auckland and his name is "George" and he is a highly skilled and celebrated artisan, whom I wished I'd listened to more often when showing me his craft.

GlockSw40 always makes me think of a "take no prisoners tolerate no bullshoot brash sorta Bugga" hang on thats because it's true :p

Tassiekiwi a New Zealanders map of Tassie :eek:

Journeyman Micks'because I sorta understand what a journeyman was I somehow associate it with a "troubadour" dunno why similar era maybe :cool:
just a few from the corridors of my mind

Major,

I know the feeling :) But nowadays, if I have anything complex to glue up, I use Techniglue epoxy with a slow hardener. It has a really long open time in reasonable ambient temperatures, and takes away all the stress from complex glue-ups. The down-side is that it takes 12 hours or so to cure fully, but that is no big deal.

NDRU I know it's meant to be Andrew, phonetically' but it conjures up a picture of a wilderbeest, or the Gnu.

mixed messages I noticed:


Daddles: cute little old grandfather type name, but the title "Grumpy Old Bugga" doesn't sound like "Daddles".
Rocker (with rocking chair avatar) relaxed dude with a green cardigan and a pipe sitting in his rocking chair in front of the fire, and "rocker" as in 'rock-and-roll' fan.

Have to admit, when I first joined ndru had that "face as his avatat. Personally I found it kinda creepy.:D
