ftttu = Far Too Technical To Understand

At star parties, my buddies and I would be asked so way out questions from UFOs to who knows what else, so our response would be "now that is just far too technical to understand." It became a running inside joke, which my buddies and I would shorten to ftttu when dealing with kook questions.

I have been a fan of formula 1 for years. In the early 60’s Stirling Moss was a top driver. He drove for a team that won constructor championship......Vanwall.

Vanwall was a motor racing team and racing car constructor that was active in Formula One during the 1950s. Founded by Tony Vandervell, the Vanwall name was derived by combining the name of the team owner with that of his Thinwall bearings produced at the Vandervell Products factory at Acton, London.

Wasn't paying attention when I signed up and thought I was inputting a password. Used my granddaughter's nickname and birthday. Oh well, I think of her each time I sign in Smile

I chose H&K-Guy because Parabellum was already taken...

Seriously, I had already spent some time over on another unnamed forum that deals strictly with the professional user who likes all things HK, and that was my handle. 20 years ago, I started migrating to other boards, and I carried the username from there.

Funny, since now there are far more Sigs in my collection than HKs.

Recoatlift= lifting of clear coat when flash off or hand slick time (usually 15 min to a 1/2 hour)between clear coats is exceeded. Recoatlift times vary with temp, air movement & solvent penetration into the base coat. Remedy, strip, bake, or sand. Re-do. Not fun & costly to shop.

When you start to color and clear. Work until the job is done. No breaks, no lunch, just work til yor’re done.

If you watch any of the restoration shows, that painter will work into the night rather than have a recoatlift, don’t ask me how I know. My explanation will soak up bandwidth.Smile

The key to enforcement is to punish the violator, not an inanimate object. The punishment of inanimate objects for the commission of a crime or carelessness is an affront to stupidity.

I am a Calvin and Hobbs fan. When I first started venturing onto the web, I went by Spiff, Spaceman Spiff, or SMSpiff depending on where and if others had already taken Spiff. At the time of signing up, life had pretty well spun 180, so I chose ffips.

As Spiff people constantly asked about spliff and as ffips, a few have asked if there is a Linux connection (fips).

I got tired of coming up with a different screen name for every website I wanted to join. I came up with this one because I used to get called Buck every once in a while. Couple that with my last name being Rogers and I like to play with words a little. Most people don't get it's supposed to be Buck Rogers in the 21st Century Wink

It's also my YouTube channels label.
