What Inspired Your Screen Name?

Ahhh...another member of the Welsh land of my farmers appreciation group...I am of course the founder member...Wtid is slowly realising that Welsh is but a fleeting fancy...a warm glow maybe...like a woolen coat on a cold night. Or a sheep in the valley below.
Men of Harlech and sheep of Llanbederis....a common sight once heading up the coast road from England.

 

But we digress from the original thread...Is Obama oh what the heck...I dont even remember the original thread.

But an old post before returning to sanity and the future of the world...

The past...The part the rest of you played in it to assist us, the chosen few in England.

Its on topic cos Obama says were still mates and got the special relationship...

So hail to the chief.

An oldie for you a58 and then sanity will return..

Falcon, it can all be explained quite easily.
Pull up a sandbag mate.
In 1815, a little Frenchman called Napoleon got his come uppance at a place called Waterloo. The Brits did it, we won saved the world....again....The Prussians got upset because they saw it all as their victory too....Not having any of that, they were late arriving, just like every ally Brits have had in the past, its not that we dont want our allies to arrive at the beginning, see ww1 and 2 for more details....just that we like to let everyone know that we held out on our own and therefor saved the world as per book of rules chapter 14. Britian, the chosen people. Of course this upset the Dutch who although were dressed up for a fight, decided to stand on the hill at the back and watch, uttering the odd tch....tch....you shouldnt do it like that....Meanwhile Carl will tell you that the Texans were on the right flank at the time...yeah right....right flank of the Mississipiiii.
The Grand old Duke of York had 10,000 men, he took them up to the top of the hill, and the Dutch said....oherrrr...you dont want to do that...so he marched them down again.
Now Napoleon, who suffered with piles, was on his back laughing his socks off at the supposed allies. Up guard at em, nows your chance Maitland says Wellington, the Dutch uttered....whooooo...look at the pretty red uniforms...and while Napoleons old guard walked around in the Merde....Sharpe of Sharpes rifles with the Irish brigade, and some chosen men, dont quite know who chose them did a perfect flanking move round the back, stole the French eagles, and my own ancestor, Paddy of Limerick relieved La Haye Sainte well him and his mates relived the Brit regiment of its silver hidden in the barn.
And the Dutch all clapped and cheered until the saw the Prussian calvalry pounding up the hill towards them, and they tch....tchd....until Prince of Orange a relative of the guy who gave my family trouble in Ireland a few years before, left the field of battle as such speed, the saying Flying Dutchman was coined.

So ther you have it, the Brits love to be left on their own so they can moan about no one helping until nearly too late. The Yanks like to arrive like the 7th calvalry just in time, and have to be guided to the front for a while, usually with Carl at the back picking up all the weapons and medals left on the field. The Dutch well they are the Dutch, and as for the Welsh, the Welsh can sing. See no problem, complicated relationships but easily smoothed when one knows ones place.
Its all the French fault of course.

 

Liverpool is next door to Wales, that will do me and Rushie graced us with his glorious touch for many years not forgetting Deano, both fine Welshmen.As for that sweet chariot oh dear..............its ficking wheels fell of and Ben hur was nowhere to be seen he was Welsh but that is another story

 

Ahh.but Rushie renounced his birth right didnt he when he got on the ferry...Batpised at the Albert dock he sang Ferry across the Mersey and Led the gallant charge for years to come...And since no one but wtid and me understand what the heck I'm on about I better leave this thread.

Once upon a time, Hank Williams released a few albums under the name Luke The Drifter. I read about it once in a book, and the name struck me. I use it for most forums and my email. luketdrifter.

 

Harbor Springs! You aren't very far from me, over in Cheboygan. Small world.

 

I work primarily in Cheboygan. Small world indeed! LOL

 

Short for Andrew and my last 4

 

My was kinda given to me by my work colleges. We where watching "Full Metal Jacket" one night when things where quite, you know that scene, where they are arguing over the prostitute and she says to the colored GI, "Too Buku." to which he replies, "What you have here little mama san, is 5lb of Alabama Black Snake, but it aint too god damn buku." Well that was it, from then on I was Blacksnake. I aint complaining.

 

Nickname and last three (minus the final letter!)

 

My military passion (obviously) and I am also a Christian so being on the field is my religious belief.
