gemini 0 #3 March 28, 2006 We have "Dot" like in "dot your [eyes]. Seems like he gets dotted when he goes out! We have "Hoop". He's got hoops in places that are very sensitive! "Iceman", ask Kate about that one. "Divot" because of what he used to make in the landing area. "Chewy" I don't know how he got this name. Any LA folks know? "Fat Boy" 'cause he's a big guy. Edited to add "Rabbitt". How could I forget him? Come to Skyfest and meet all of them. Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jheadley 0 #9 March 28, 2006 my club loves nicknames, everyone has one but most of them are sort of lame, but my favorite one is Groundhog, who one time in freefall saw his shadow below him on a cloud layer, and thought it was another person so he kept trying to track away from it but it kept following him.

Do you think I'd go to jail if I played with her?" "Shit man, I dunno... that one's gonna vary from state to state" That girl went BRIGHT red, so there's no question as to if she heard us or not cavete terrae.
