Meaning behind your handle

I have been crazy about Opel Manta since I was a kid. After my apprenticeship and a few real paychecks I purchased a used Opel Manta i200, the little brother of the famous Manta i400 rally car.
I made Manta200 my handle everywhere I could. This is a video I made back in 2000:


I own the car for 30 years now

 

Mine is pretty self explanatory.

 

bbtkd stands for black belt Tae Kwondo. When the kids got into TKD, my wife and I joined too. The kids lost interest but we continued, working part time as instructors for 20 years, earning our third degrees. If we'd tested on schedule, we'd be sixth degree.

 

If you know, you know

 

LMAO, when I read your post you had already changed it so I thought your last name must be eerjerk666.

 

My surname. The original German was Späth, and they were vintners in the hills east of the Rhine. The old family farm is still owned by distant (very) relatives and still produces wine. The winery is known as Wiegerthof; I had some years ago and it was unique. A bit syrupy, very strong but also very sweet.

I feel like I'm rambling...

 

My wife likes to bowl and she is just fucking terrible. So when we went on Sundays she always used the name Melissa becuz she didn't want people to know who she was. I just hit Z and that was it. After months of Sunday morning bowling the owner suggested we join a mixed league that was halfway thru the season. (Non sanctioned). Not knowing anyone, my wife used Melissa, I became Zebulon X Zogg. We bowled in that league for 2 1/2 years, everyone knew my wife as Melissa except our team mates. I use Zebulon X Zogg here and on Untappd.

 

Don’t call me Dim no more either…officer, you call me.

 

Mine is a made up Googie name I have been using for over 25 years.

Enjoy

 

I'm from Horseheads, NY, and I like hoppy beer.

 

HeySuz (along with the spelling) was given to me as a nickname a long time ago because I have long hair and a beard.

 

You’ll always be Hans Manta to me.

 

tdm168 = pure laziness

When entering Penn State in '03, they assigned me an email address: [email protected]. when leaving PSU in '07 I was too damn lazy to think for myself and create anything new so tdm168 became my default. It was my new email with a different @ and it became my username on most websites.

 

College nickname that has stuck for 20 plus years + birthday. Yeah friends would still describe me as energetic.

 

It's a name I've had on the internet for a while.

I listen to a lot of metal, so the "Scary" is from Metallica's unofficial mascot "Scary Guy" and the "Ed" is Iron Maiden's mascot Eddie.

 

What an awesome story! Say hi to Mel for me!

 

A Boy Named Suz...pretty cool.

 

The first track I ever heard from one of my favorite artists..Ex Kyuss/Fu Manchu drummer now killing it solo... I usually switch it up between Hinda65, YabbyU and Unkempt Harold on forums. This Vid won the MTV award for superior production value and all around stone coldest of the stone cold grooves

 

I either have bad fantasy or good

Maybe I'm a bit generic?
