so my login is based on my name and the car I had way back in the day. GEO is for my 1991 Geo Prism that was my favorite car ever, and my first name Jackson. I like that its unique enough I don't have to have any numbers.


Only pic I have of the old gal, she was creamed by a suburban while i was delivering pizzas a few years ago.

Pretty self explanatory. I'm live in AZ and when I joined my (first car) was an 89 240sx.

These low grade ruminations are pretty average for most of us as we obsess about I woulda’, coulda’ shoulda’ etc., etc. However, when they digress to: “I’m stupid, ugly, dumb, no one likes me/loves me (essentially “I’m no good”) and I’d be better off dead” that’s when I’m most likely to get a call for an appointment. If it’s a male it’s usually from their significant other. If It’s a female they are much more open to asking for help themselves.

Because low grade “ANTZ” are so common, it’s “ANTZRUS” (@aol.com) as my professional e-mail address and often identity on the internet.

Checkout my past work re Combat PTSD and modern treatment for Depressive Illnesses. Google “jim Goodwin” PTSD https://www.google.com/search?sourceid= ... 51gk&pbx=1 and “jim Goodwin” Prozac https://www.google.com/search?sourceid= ... %22+prozac respectively.

I read one of your books on Anxiety a year ago, and I would just like to say thank you.

I joined Nico at 2AM on a Christmas morning. I was trying to entertain my 3 month old daughter who happens to have my sleeping habits. At that ungodly hour it seemed very reasonable to pick a username that reflected the car I was driving at the time, hence a variation of Q45
In retrospect, I really dislike my screen name since the Q has long been sold. My real name is Eddie but I go by Ed Bwoy in every other forum. Can I have my screen name changed to EdBwoy?

Mine's from a combination of things. The last few cars I've had have all had "fish face" in some way - completely unintentionally. Dodge Avenger (1996, has a bass mouth look to it), 240sx (S13 dual cam "shark nose") and a Talon AWD with a '99 bumper (yet more big mough bass looks). In addition to that, while trying to catch up to a friend on the highway (I was following them someplace and we got a little separated due to a toll booth) they later told me that seeing me creep up on them in their rear view made them feel like they were being hunted by a shark. So, The Road Shark. My current S13 has a Silvia face, so not so much of a shark-y look, but the name stuck since it's just as much about the way I drive as it is about what I drive.

Bring this back!

Btw, float thank you for changing my username.
It was previously CueFerdy5 or something of the sort; because I owned a q45t when I joined.
"Ferdy" because that is St. Louis speak for "forty"... but only when referring to the highways 64/40 and 44. Those are pronounced as "sixty-four/ferdy" or highway "ferdy-four".

Otherwise people will just say forty-year-old and forty Dollars and pronounce it normally.

"Mike" that's me!

RL411 that's my favorite and longest owned car. Bought it new.


When I started signing in to auto sites I rapidly discovered that I was the first RL411 [or even 411] on the sites. I guess I have started something Even now I am usually the only 411 at the JCCS meet.

Pretty simple... I'm a big, hairy ape who lives below the Mason-Dixon line. In real life I go by "Sasquatch". But that name is frequently taken.
