Hey, Barb! You inspired me and I'm doing something i picked up from you on here!  I'm referring to my Suburban as Mr. Bourbon with a male connotation, rather than MS. Bourbon which I think would be a male chauvinist female connotation! Also, Ducky is a drake, of course named after doc on NCIS!
Happy Aquariuming,
Ron

There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable application of high explosives.
There are only two types of people. Italians and those that wish they were

The heck with convention.  The Beast, my huge diesel van, is totally male.

I name most of my server installs as male.....  Zeus, Poseidon, Kratos, Hades, etc.  The others are typically animals or monsters.....  Hydra, Cerberus, Komodo, etc.

I don't bother naming things like that. They are only machines. Tools. Nothing more. Nothing less. Unless of course we are talking a 69 CatalinaBonneville Convertible. Now that is just pure class.

Servers MUST have a name.....  I could perhaps be more creative and name them like some I've worked on in the past though.....  FS1 is a popular name File Server 1  LOL

This new website hosting company I've started working with names their servers after characters from the A Game of Thrones books.

When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

I know, Pauline.  He always thinks that I'm Barb even though I'm totally unlike Barb.  It doesn't bother me.

Yeah I meant to put a shilling stroke between the two. Catalina/Bonneville. Bonneville was the updo of the Cat. Power everything and wheel skirts along with the bumper insert. Some even had the optional revert radio with 8 track. I still have the hydraulics for the power top. And the rear glass window.
