Mine is just word play on the old 80's sitcom. I'm sure if you haven't guessed that already and are now reading this post, you have figured it out.

Mine comes from the two things I was most into @ the time when I signed up on some other forums, and I just kept the screen name (or a form of it) for here & other forums...

R/C Maxx=(T& E-maxx) & Mustang 5.0 = R/CMaxximus5.0

Sold my '89 Mustang GT 5.0 in '09 ...

Haven't had a T or E-maxx since around '07/'08...

I will own another Mustang some day but not another T/E-Maxx,

Back when i was all about the 1:1 with my first truck and the online forums I had a ford ranger that I painted caterpillar yellow and it had a 2.3 i4 motor (ranger cat 23) I have found it has been easy to just hold onto it, been about 10 years and running.

Good question and great reply's. I have a RAGE'N Toy Hauler for our ATV's and back when I bought my Wraith I found this forum and just combined the names of my favorite things.

Tim is my real name. Family called me Timmy forever (youngest of 5) and close friends always emphasized the yyyyyyyeeeeeeeee at the end in the 80s in HS>

Then South Park came on in the early 90's and it has stuck ever since. So I just emphasized the last part.

Just my name, don't wear it out. lol

Zwally is my last name but one of my close friends started calling me Zoo-wally and it stuck! So now that's what everyone in my circle calls me. I guess it's easier than pronouncing Zwally for alot of people because most everyone that sees it spelled out ask how to pronounce it correctly, and everyone spells it wrong if they hear it pronounced it seems. I don't see what's so difficult about it

Well.. this could be long or it could be short.. Lets go for the short one..

I was part of a online clan playing CounterStrike:Source, we were playing both serious clanwars, tournaments and just messing about in public servers..
My nick then was v8quattro, after my car.. But while fooling around on this public server we got to this point that it was "a thing" to spray the most obnoxious pictures on the walls in-game..
So after a few weeks I decided to win this thing and put a silence to the others, so one time I went.. well.. Lets just say, one of my team members got sick of my picture and threw up(I guess he was drunk as well) and started yelling on teamspeak that I was ONE BIG SICK PUPPY!!.. So, there it is.. There is some more stories around it that led up to this, but this was the moment that v8quattro changed name to SiCkPuPPy.. Our in-game clan tag was [TFL] and people asked all the time what the clan tag was an acronym of.. They wouldn't believe when we told them it was "The Fu**ing Loosers", but that's actually what it was.. That seemed to be a clever move tho', cos' everyone else kind of tried to have real cool and furious names, but then allways got thrashed with silly alternatives instead of their original names.. That wasnt a problem for us, noone could ever come up with something worse that what the original name was..

Ooooh, glory days..!

I had been going out to the Ocala rainbow gathering (bunch of hippies in the woods for a few weeks around Valentine's day)since I was 9 yrs old. About 12 years ago I was at a holding camp before the gathering sitting by the fire getting down on my djembe. I hadn't had a hair cut or beard trim in over 8 months and was wearing a Animal(from the muppets) T-shirt. A old head (rainbow elder) came to my fire. He was drawn there by my drumming. I had known him for years, but he didn't recognize me due to my hair. He started calling me Animal and said I was wearing a self portrait shirt. We got a laugh out of it and the name stuck. Everyone started calling me Animal from then on. Both of my parents were hippies and I've dreamt of owning a stripped down and crazy painted bus since I was 6. So the hippie part of my name was a given.

So... Clint Eastwood and Beastie Boys ( Paul's Boutique) as a bonus. Plus I've spent a lot of my life drifting the plains from Ohio to Texas.

About 18 or so years ago, a bunch of friends and I were in a bar in Lancaster Pa the night before the Dover Nascar race, we were staying in Lancaster at a friends relatives house and heading to Dover the next morning, anyway my nickname then was Kinger but I paid a dollar to donate for some charity and write my name on a paper shoe or some shape they hang on the wall but I was pretty drunk and somehow the G in Kinger came out looking like a C so from that day on I was Kincer.
