Thanks for the kind words Peggy!
Since Peggy suggested " Hopefully, he'll share his story about his name from high school. (Would be cool if pix included!)", I figured why not.

In a nut shell, here is a little about me taken from my PM conversation with Peggy about my first donation:
Peggy said: "AND ... you have a great name (almost - Gear-head) for this biz."
My response: "The "AND..." comment is too funny

because you nailed my high school moniker perfectly!!!
My denim jacket (back then worn year round) had a big Chevrolet patch on the back with "Gearhead" hand stitched above in 3" letters by then best friend Cheryl (now wife of almost 40 years)."
As to photos: "No photo evidence of those high school days. Were lost through some of our many relocation moves during 21 year Army career. Probably would be difficult to "own up to" some of the shenanigans back then too.

"
Anyhow, thanks again Peggy for the nudge!

Thanks also too everyone in the community for making this a great place!
