Ahh, my Irish friend, I've been waiting for you to grace this thread with your writing skills. Rest easy my friend, it's a name that I hope carries me beyond my employment to my grave. ;)

Well stock, I used to be red headed, grandkids have turned it gray, and I've been know to play a flat top and belt out a tune, so you're mental image isn't that far from reality. :D

Can we still call you ATCO?

It should be where one day a year everyone on the Forum still calls you ATCO.

You know....................kind of like April Fools Day.:D

Just kidding of course.

Seriously though, I don't think anyone has made more of a positive impact on this Forum by joining than you have. I also hope you are around a long time.:notworthy

Sniffin diesel fumes.
I am betting everyone will catch on pretty quick, especially when he continues to help us out. Glad you didn't add Wet or Slick on to the front, that might of been just a little much.

Good thing he didn't add Little to the front.Man talk about the little jokes.
