Probably an ancestor of yours.  Hope you are feeling better and ready to rumble!!

I recall when his mom got out of prison, she was nicknamed, "Recently Released Rotund".

I think Jon told the story of how he acquired the name a long time ago. I can't remember if it was before or after he acquired the site from Jon Amo. I do think you've found the source.

Nancy and I were driving through Death Valley and stopped at Ballarat -- home of the other SSS.  Nancy saw Slim's name on the building and his tombstone and everything and said "That'd be a good name for our race team".  The rest is history.

That would have been in '02 or so.  I bought the site in '08.

And struck gold! Lucky for us, thanks for all you do.

Thanks for the update Jon. As the years pass time just seems to run together. Things are either recently or a while ago.

I re-read my story from '07 (thanks for the link, Mike) and realised that I've been the Potentate of Porta Potties for more than a decade.  I hope youse guys don't think I'm hoarding all of the fun.

Ive seen a car driver in rush hour on the Beltway working a laptop that was perched partly on the steering wheel and partly on his chest. At 70 mph.
