I am and have been flaggerphil on every forum I've ever been on.  It's a nickname that was bestowed on me years and years ago in racing and was also the name of a cartoon I did for some motorsports magazines in the '90s and early 2000s.

Same one in both places for me too.  I'm also down as LindaLooUK in various other places.
Hoping that one day a Taylor 1 11/16" 12 fret Grand Concert will be a BTO possibility! :)

Well, contrary to popular belief, my name is not Bo.  It came about when a certain movie came out, and the guy called himself B-rad.  My name is Boone, which is were I get bo-one.  The 142 is related to my number when I raced motorcycles.

Seen many a WERA race at Summit Point.  Very cool.  Back in the day (WAAAAAY back in the day) I raced an RD400.  Now I just ride street bikes.

I've never raced (well, legally  :-X ) but I do ride street bikes as well.
First bike was an '84 VT700C.
Then got an '07 Bonneville T100.
Picked up a Honda Helix for my wife.
Pulled a '74 CB550K out of some guy's garage and got 'er running after a 20 year sit.

Now I have a 5 month old boy and I have probably logged 200 miles since July, but he's worth it!   :D

Steely Glen there and Steely Glen here.  "Steely" is the call sign I was given when I worked in the AF fighter jet world, mainly because I listened to Steely Dan in my office a lot and the pilots in the unit just didn't get their music.     

Steely Glen thanks for your service to this country! Thanks to all the other members who have done the same! ;)

I kept the John 429 from the other forum. One of my other interests is classic Mustangs. I have one with a 429 engine and I'm John, hence, "John 429"!

LOL! I've never ridden the type of bikes you ride, but my bike is pretty fun to ride. I like to think of it as a tricycle on steroids. :D Kids and teens LOVE it. Here's a YouTube video of a similar one. http://www.youtube.com/user/WizWheelzTerraTrike#p/u/39/ee2CYtyF214

I was Saxacat on AGF, although up until yesterday I haven't visited the site for a couple of years.

Having recently acquired a lovely Taylor GA-Ke I'm looking forward to picking-up lots of tips on this new forum from all you Taylor experts  :)

at first, i thought it might have been a biblical reference, so i looked it up (good verse, btw)

i was just wondering if the year model is a 69-70, 71-73
with the '9 from the factory, or if it was installed later -
i'm a mustang 'nut' too & used to wrench at a Ford place

either way, cool name, nice car & i like your guitars :)
it's not about what you play,
it's all about why you play ...

Hello all

I guess this is a good place to start...

I used the same name on the "other" forum, as here: chubakabra. Yes, I know that it should be spelled "chupacabra" ... I thank the Norwegian sub texts of an X-files epsiode back in 1998 for that :) But I have been using it online since then, so I'm sticking with it :)

I'm mostly a lurker, but I do post from time to time ... However, less than 200 post over 5 years on the AGF is not much. I guess some of you will get more post than that here within the end of the year :D

Big thanks to jjrpilot for creating this forum. Hopefully it will grow fast, and provide lots of good information for years to come.
