Glenn Ford plays the part of George Kelby in a 1950’s western titled The Fastest Gun Alive.
Great movie if you like westerns.
Tried to think of a name, my son said “Mom, you campaigned for Barry Goldwater when I was little, so you should be “Goldwater Chick”. I only met one other person—a judge—who admitted voting for him!
Owned a brown 74’ Gran Torino.
Front seat was like sitting on the couch.
See FReeper Lore for the irony.
One day we were out shoveling snow and my son was listening to Over the Hills and Far Away. He was singing it and the first word happens to be Heylady. He has been calling me Heylady ever since.

Little because I’m insignificant, and jeremiah since a lot of people including his family did not like what he had to say, either.
Taken from my state’s great motto, but “LiveFree” was taken so I added the number 99, which for some reason I have always liked.
The name I have always answered to.
I've kept it because...uh...laziness comes to mind.
As a west coast boy, my memories of SC bring me back to being stationed at Fort Gordon, GA in 1969 as an 18 year old and having to drive to Aiken, SC to drink legally, LOL!
I tried that years ago and for some reason it didn’t work. Can’t remember why, so had to sign up again. It was a year earlier than my current date.
"You talking to me? You talking to me? FUGETABOUDIT!"
Wow, the first inebriated FReeper EVER!
God Bless your son, ((HUGS)) Mom!
Well, I used to frequent a little debaucherous town named Dewey and some people called me Frank.
T-Patchers are those who served with the 36th Infantry Division in WW2. Their shoulder insignia is a 'T' inside an arrowhead that was the original National Guard patch indicating men from Texas & Oklahoma served in it. By 1940 when the unit was federalized, they were mainly an all-Texas group.
Therefore, I am a son of a T-Patcher and took this as my FR id. I was the original sonofatpatcher ( http://www.freerepublic.com/~sonofatpatcher/ ) joined Apr 23, 2000, but was away for a bit and came back to find I could not get my old password. (Computer crash & change of e-mails and servers, etc...) I resigned up as sonofatpatcher2.
Another crash had me returning as... Bender2-- And remain so...
to this day.
Mine is a handle I’ve carried for many moons. It all started back in my diesel- billy band days when we decided on truck part monikers and other such things. And far as I know, they all stuck... lefty, mudflap, kenworth, mack... etc... good band, fun times.
A liberal overheard me go on an anti Clinton rant almost 20 years ago
