Sorry Spike, nothing to do with dogs or bread, i do love dogs and wish i had one though. It is funny now that i run a bagel shop and i have a screan name about toast though, makes me wonder if it was some sort of calling. Its funny how names just end up stuck on you.

Couple years ago(christmas day no less!) this dog shows up sitting in our front yard by the road. Well, my wife is an animal lover, so she heats up some canned dog food in the microwave to give it! The dog starts eating and I get to looking at the poor thing. She has fleas BIG TIME, is skinny as a rail,and real skiddish. I told the wife that dog was just skanky lookin'........Ill get rid of it. Next thing I know the wife has bathed and dipped it,took it to the vet for all its shots and it now sleeps with us!! One night sitting at the computer tryin' to come up with a user name, I look down and this dog(I still call her skank dog, her name is lucky to everyone alse) is looking up at me with this pityfull look and licking its underbelly......the rest is history. The wife says that dog reminds her of me when we met!!!!! I just didnt have the fleas!! She took me in and fed me as well, so Im still hanging around like that skanky dog after 13 yrs! LOL!

Thumbs up

Skank Dog,

I've been waiting for you to post. I thought it meant you liked nasty looking women. Glad we got that one cleared up. Good story by the way.

Roger

The origins of "Jebus" are as follows:

Jebus was the name of a character that was the retarded, older half cousin of Jesus who appeared briefly in the satirical comic "The New Adventures of Jesus".

One day, in the ole garage, we're tuning downdraft Webers. Those of you who have tuned Webers, I can hear groaning in commiseration already. We THINK we're done and the gent who owned the rod we were working on said "Man, Chris, you're Jesus! This thing rocks!"

However, I was hearing a very faint "popping" noise off the first two cylinders. So I lean over, flashlight in hand, and look down the barrel...and motion for him to rev it up.

Can we say backfire that singed the eyebrows right off my face?

One fine, upstanding, beer guzzling friend quipped "I think Jesus is in the garage next door. We're stuck with Jebus."

Hence, Jebus ever since......

Wow.... Been a long time since I posted....

OK... I'm a Fightin' Texas Aggie too... Howdy AggieSVT!

There's a tradition on campus during the spring semester... Howdy Week. The idea is to say "Howdy" to encourage a friendly campus...

Someone started printing tshirts... that said "Say Howdy"....

Well.... a LOT of people wouldn't say "Howdy" back... so one of the dorms on campus started printing tshirts that said "Say 'Howdy'- DAMMITT". Well... people resonded to THAT.... by saying "HOWDY DAMMITT".

So... my screen name on ebay became Howdy Dammitt... I thought it'd be cute sniping bids with that name!

Anyway... In Sept. of 1999, Daimler/Chrysler bought back my Dodge RT... I started looking for a Lightning to replace it... I had every dealer in Houston, Austin and Dallas looking for one for me. Supposedly, there wasn't one to be found at the time. Next I turned to the internet... I found this site....

And I wanted a LIGHTNING DAMMITT!!! I found one used about a month later!!!!

Mine's a nickname I've had for about 15 years now. Back then, my friends and I used to watch Cheers religiously. One day Cliff, Norm, Sam, Woody and Frasier were wanting to start a motorcycle gang. Each one started picking their biker nickname. My friends and I decided to do the same. I remembered how a character from the movie Summer School called himself Chainsaw. I thought it sounded cool. Well it stuck. My friends still call me that today.

The 13 comes from a couple of things. 85 is my lucky number, which was the first numbered jersey I ever wore when I played little league football around age 8. Add the two digits together and you get 13. It also comes from when I played little league baseball. The only shirt that I fit into had 13 on it. I thought it was cool cause that was Lance Parrish's number and I played catcher also. I've also worn it on my hockey jersey. So to me, 13 isn't unlucky.

Bob
