    reefer....comes from one of my other hobbies (no not that) that is currently neglected... I have a 75 gallon salt water aquarium (a reef).
    psyco comes from a friend that told me I was "crazy" to put so much money into a fish tank. It would have been spelled right but that one was taken when I registered for my e-mail address. I use it all over the net.

      Since high school....

      My friends used to call me Wildkat in high school... Kat short for Kathryn... and Wild... gosh... haven't a clue...


      Lived up to it many times... thanks to kids I became more of a feral (FeralKat just didn't sound right) than anything... well... until recently...

            WildKat,

            No, don't ask!
            Let's just say that being one of only 3 female tanker drivers in the North East, well, the 'boys' can be a little hostile when they first meet up with you. Especially when you won't give them the time of day.
            That's okay. That name only stuck about 2 weeks. Then, once they got to know me a little, I got my new name...

              Erik the Red. From the Norse explorer and adventurer. My beard also comes in red. I'd say it fits me pretty well all around.

              Also, my understanding is that Icelandic language doesn't have a 'C', so the correct spelling would be Erik.

                Just love drag racing though I no longer compete. Many of my friends still compete and I am partial to super-stock, competition elimator and the top alcohol dragster classes hence, TADracer.

                  First initial, last name. I guess I'm just lazy and/or can't remember different screen names. I use egleaves everywhere I go.

                  @psychoreefer - I too feel the pain of dumping money into a miniature ocean. I keep a 180 gallon salt water tank in my living room.
                  I know this, because Tyler knows this.

                          I used to have my headphones on a LOT when I was younger. I also DJ'd at a college radio station in MI for a while.
                          People told me my brain would turn to mush if I listened to music so much. I usually replied with "huh?"...
