I'm a welder/fabricator by trade. The welder slang for the holder that holds the welding rod is a "stinger", hence the name. Used it in the 70's as a CB handle.

Born with a name like KIRK, and then have the Star Trek series come along, Capt.Kirk just came easy. I had the name printed on my work shirts!

Re:Story behind your user name? 4 Years, 5 Months ago  
My name is Don Arnoldi, some people had a hard time saying it, and ended up almost stuttering with Darn oldi. To make it worse, when you get cable internet they give you an email using your first initial and last name.. darnoldi@.... You get the idea. I'm not sure if my folks thought about it when they named me or not, but it didn't start to come into play until the last 5 years or so.

My other nickname has always been "Uncle Buck", not that I am as big as John Candy (yet) but I have 29 nieces and nephews with more than 40 great nieces and nephews and now an even dozen great, great-nieces and nephews.

You said STORY. Sorry it's so long...

Re:Story behind your user name? 4 Years, 5 Months ago  
I grew up in West Los Angeles , and while growing up , I did a lot of stupid things . . . so long story short , the guys from the hood was always laughing that such a young dude (me) was always "tripping" and always fighting or getting in trouble

And they were always telling me "hey Jaime (that is my name) don't trip , jaime stop Tripping , why are you Tripping , etc "

So . . . yeap , they call me "Tripper" , I was 14 when I got that name and now I am 33

Back then I was crazier than today hehe (that is where the "loko" comes from)

So now you know why . . . LokoTripper
