Mine: if I ever got to be a good enough shot, I wanted you to know that you got shot down by a girl.  But I put 'Mom' in there to make sure that I didn't get the usual obnoxious comments.

Sat down with a list of handles in early Warbirds days. Every damn one was taken, or a variation already had been claimed.

My favorite Labrador Retriever just happened to be laying at my feet. His name was Frodo.

Almost changed it when the damn movies came out. :D

I loved the books, but I am not into any of the wizards/dragons stuff. So don't ask me any questions! :rofl  My interests lie in history, outdoors,nature ect.

I am from the South, but I used to live in SoCal and one night many years ago some buddies and I went back to my house after a night of partying. I was drunk and starving to death so I made a pot of grits, which the SoCal kids had never seen before. I, being drunk and hungry, ate about 4-5 bowls and the sissy SoCal kids were repulsed so they made a pizza. After that they started calling me Grits and the nickname stuck. When I joined AW in '93 I chose Grits because it was a real nickname and I couldnt think of anything better so I have used it ever since.

What I can't believe is that you misspelled Fieseler.
The Storch is a cool plane though.  I'm surprised no one makes replicas.

Links in AW= I'm a golfer and links is a type/style of golf course.

Trog60= My favorite comic strip is BC and i thought trog was cool as a variant from those type of characters. Also i wanted something short, one syllable and simple for people to say in AH. The 60 is the year i was born 1960, as Trog was taken:(.

Interesting one of my squaddies kept calling me Trogdor the Burninator, so Krusty made my avatar and it just suck. My kids like it, my oldest can play the song on his guitar.

My Bro-in-law was SpamCan, he doesn't play anymore. I always wanted that call sign, but was to lazy to call HTC and ask for it.

TalonX

I wanted the name for the claw of the eagle, and "Talon" was taken, so I tacked on the X.   Although I have never seen just "Talon",there are many Talons with various small differences.

After reading this thread, I see I lacked any sense of creativity.

I am sorry I didn't take the name, Dejavu.

-TalonX

Forgotten, but back in the game.  :)

wanted a name most people would remember. While I was thinking my dad came over and set his Rolling Rock down. That's basicly how it all started  :)
