What's the story behind your Forum name?
And Avatar?
When I first signed up I tried to be "CorvetteRon" but someone already had it. I just added the initial from my last name so it would work.
I have gone through several avatars but liked this one as my wife has "planted" several flamingos in our yard and I have a blue C4.
Also planning on moving to the flamingo state (FL) when I retire next year.
What's your story?

No mystery here, my vette is a '96 Collector Edition. And the avatar...well it's my car.

It's my occupational classification. Journeyman Inside Wireman.
The avatar is a stock one from the Forum's list. It works because I've got a white '90.

Mine should be easy too.
I live in Rolla, MO and have an LT4.
Sorry, couldn't come up with anything better.

It stands for Psalm 37:4 Always wanted a Corvette since I was 9. Got married and was in Christian Mininstry for 20 years. After I left I still had that desire and through a family member the car was placed into my hands. This scripture became real to me since that day.

I work in Aerospace and have been associated with the program, thus the moniker. Too bad our buddy in the White House killed the program, with only a hundred being built. The F-15 Eagle is long in the tooth, with the first prototype flying in 1971!!! The last U.S. spec'd versions were built in 1985, the second year of early C4 production and about the same equivalent in the fighter world. Meanwhile, the former U.S.S.R and the Chinese are building their 5th generation fighter. We fall behind again. Sheesh!
