Fernos?
Those battery powered ones are the bee's knees.
Gordo - nickname (spanish for fat, although I'm not fat.) It's in reference to my last name.
993 - my car.
For you Speed Racer fans, I named my Porsche Trixie after Speed's girlfriend!

I hope y'all visit and join our fun.
also, I never knew the name of Racer's X car - that's great trivia. My favorite episodes are the Monster Car the GRX engine

Ha, the name I was born with - but that was a mistake
I was so green to internet speak when starting on the 928 forum, my chosen ID was incorrectly entered as the password ...... never bothered to correct it, for dial-up and Windows ME of the era had me beaten.

Neuf Cent Onze = Nine Hundred Eleven
You could call me Froggie but I have been living outside France and on four continents for the last 24 years. I consider myself a citizen of the world.
Porsches are fairly new to me, thanks to some enthusiast friends who attracted my attention to them. And there is no going back I am afraid!

Three Wheelin'
The TOGA switch. Many pilots know it. It's a switch which is in our 737 (and probably in many other planes). Placed in front of the throttles. If you press it, it will select take off or go around power depending in which phase of flight we are. This is the Take Off and Go Around switch.

Umm..well, I think I'm a nice guy who cares for his friends and remembers their birthday, but I've been accused of saying what's on my mind and not letting anybody push me around-so I chose "Loosecannon" as a bit of a joke about myself.
