With a name like Ed, the login is almost invariably taken. So after spending about 15 min working on a viable yahoo email login, I decided to try the Differenet Strokes approach. Whatyoutalkenaboutwillis was then born. I have yet to have it denied at any site. BTW, I need to update my pictures: I have a 2005 Cayenne S and a 1995 Cab.

Randomly chosen from a birth certificate. Did not want to burn up too many synapses.

Tiger got to hunt,
Bird got to fly;
Man got to sit and wonder, "Why, why, why?"
Tiger got to sleep,
Bird got to land;
Man got to tell himself he understand.

Mine is a spelling of my last name, which gives it a closer pronunciation. Rubidoux, sometimes pronounced Roebedo. My III great grandfather was very heavy into real estate in southern Ca. If he had not gave/sold most of his land I would have a pretty sweet P-Car collection right now

Oh well wishfull thinking..

Last name: O'Bannon

If anyone remembers Charles and Ed O'Bannon from mid-nineties UCLA basketball teams. Them: Large (6'6"+) Black Men Me: Short (5'7") Irish White Boy = Nickname given to me in college (Chuck - as in Charles) Hence, OBChuck.

Actually there's a humorous story about about my sister while in college at same time as O'Bannon brothers. Them @ UCLA, her @ SDSU. While at a party she (being herself!) went up to Ed and introduced herself as a long lost relative! :P Nice, brief conversation followed. Upon leaving bar that evening some "riff-raff" were giving people including my sister a hard time. Enter Ed, "You guy's got a problem w/my cousin here?!" Answer: "Uh, no...no problem" It pays to have family! :P

This is the renn-list (race-list in german); so I chose something related to that, and humbly calling myself a novice - always a novice to the next level.

Mine is fairly obvious:

ca993twin: the California license plate on Waldo (993 TWIN), my 1996 993 TT. Sold the car, gave the plate to a Rennlister and now have "FAST RUF" as my California plate.

Blue Ocean, kind of a double meaning.
Ocean Blue backwards - Color of my car.
Blue Ocean - Where I like to vacation and SCUBA dive.

Caveman is my old childhood nickname due to my temper tantrums that were similar to Captain Caveman an old Hannah Barbera (sp?) cartoon.

Another "boring " I-didn't-think-of-a-good-one-when-I-signed-up initials.

Funny - I thought obchuck was an ob-gyn!
