My sister lives in Boca Raton and she often uses Oceanbreeze. I live near the mountains of NC/SC thus I adopted Mountainbreeze. My icon is "Bill the Cat" and he looks like I feel some days after spending all day in the shop.

When I got my first dialup internet account way back in 1990, the service provider assigned me the login of kablerj because my last name is Kabler, and my first name is James. In a effort to keep things simple, every time I was asked to pick a user name, I picked kablerj.

In 1992 I started hanging out on IRC channels and decided I needed a better name. After careful consideration, I chose Sudo_Nym (Pseudonym = Alias or pen name). Back then, I was the only Sudo_nym on the net. Today they are all over the place, and some of them are of poor character.

So now I am back to kablerj. As far as I know, I am the only one.

My other beloved machine is a 2001 Miata Special Edition that is more of a lifestyle than a car. Enjoy driving.

As I grow older I long more and more for the "real America"; drive-in movies, drive-in burgers, less government. I've been on a nostalgia trip for a couple of years, now.

So combine a love of the road, and a lament for a by-gone era, and nothing represents it better than Route 66.

(you youngsters can Google it!)

Father forgive me, for I have sinned!

I tracked down the movie with the namesake character, Bad Bob. It is The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean, from 1972. A John Huston film, starring Paul Newman, Ava Gardner, Stacy Keach, Victoria Principal, Anthony Perkins, Roddy McDowell, Ned Beaty, Jaqueline Bisset, and John Huston.

The narrator also mentions a character named "Dirty Bad Bob". Four decades of neural entropy had somehow morphed this into "Wild Bad Bob" in my brain.

Here's a link to the Bad Bob scene. Enjoy!
