Rover seemed to be appropriate.

I knew you were in the Marines, so I just associated it with the bull dog... my mind works in weird ways....

That's cool Rover that you were in the military! I was in the military too, until I turned a very high ranking official in for s***** harrassment.(not sure if I can use that word here) Needless to say, I got an honorary discharge, but an RE4 code. Which is totally fine with me.

Thanks for asking.

My Dad was an engineer--mainly oil and gas pipelines. One job over, another awaited--and that meant a move.

After college I did it to myself--I'm a career Marine. Needless to say, I've moved my family often.

I can retire from the Marine Corps in a little less than three years, just when my youngest enters college. We'll see if my wife and I have it in us to actually settle down. 🙂

Thinking about somewhere in the Mountain West. Any ideas?

Well, I was going for both of those meanings. Good catch.

...in Brazil. In Uruguay Gaucho is pronounced gow-tchoe.

I was in Chile during the 1990 World Cup and all the girls thought I looked like Paolo Scilacci. They thought he was cute so I took it as a compliment. Anywho... I liked the name and it has stuck. I don't use it in 'real' life :p - only online.

It is probably better that way.

Does anyone else find it odd that on any given day I find myself in Richfield, or Price, wearing a shirt with Scilaci's real name on it?

Yes, very much so.
