If the glove don't fit, you must acquit. Come on we all saw it ourselves, he's innocent.

LOL! that's a good one.

You gotta love the sarcasm in a name like that.

Reminds me of when I was a medical student rotating on the General Surgery wards. There was a surgical resident who was not considered too bright ("fast" in the vernacular) by his peers. They nicknamed him "Mercury Morris."

Waiting for PDK

Significance should be obvious.

Even though the car would be a daily driver, I have to admit I'm considering a manual--would I have to change my user name?

(I am really struggling with this--the fun of rowing gears versus the reality of rush hour. I did love the DSG in an A3 I test drove, but its so good that I would just leave it in sport mode and if you're not going to play with the gears, why get a Porsche?)

But I drive a porsche so I must have at least one redeeming quality.

I've been lurking for awhile - a huge Porsche and 997 fan. Currently in my just-out-of-law-school version of a sports car, a 350z.

Not bad for "just out of law school"...took me 7 years out of law school to be able to afford my first Z car....gone but not forgotten....enjoy it for a while.

I will - I LOVE my Z and there is possibly no greater bang for the buck (287 hp for under $30K)... But as I'm sure many here can relate to, that little kid in the Porsche commercial dreaming as the 997 drives by... that was me. Someday, not now, but someday.

That could be my username, too! Traded in my 350Z for the 997 last week. The Z was an awesome car, no question. Still, what a difference. Hang in there and make your dream come true!

years ago in a bar with some colleagues, one of the guys asked the waitress if she knew what her pornstar name would be (yeah, I know what an opener!). Basically, you combine your childhood pet's name with the first few letters of your mother's maiden name. Hers turned out to be Fluffy Leg (for Legault). Of course, she then wanted to hear all of ours. For some reason mine stuck and became a bit of a nickname. Pongo + Baz = Pongobaz
PS: nope, my friend never did get her number with that line
