Hey one more guy named AL.  Oh I admit it alright. I wasn't born here, but my Dad's family is from here and we moved back here when I was only 10. So yeah it's home and I love it. I've litterly been around the world, lived a few different places, but BAMA is the best from Gulf Shores all the way up to the Rocket city. This is my home.

I just thought you were a bad ass, went to a Bama government school and didn't know how to spell "lethal". Assuming you were a badass, I was too scared to say anything. 
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Although this may come as a surprise to some of you, my screen name just happens to be my first name. Yeah, I know... seems unlikely. "Keith" (spelled "i' before "e" except after "K") is of Scottish or Gaelic origin meaning woodland"or forest. Now, many of you will remember me as "Mountainman" around these parts which (now that I explained the meaning of "Keith") does sort of tie in with my current screen name. Anyway, when referring to me you may use either my screen name or my given name... either way works for me.

Stickman Yogi, is reserved for his students. But they apply Mr. To the front.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Old 97 was a Southern Railway train officially known as the Fast Mail. The train started its career on December, 1902, close to two years after Casey Jones's death. It ran from Washington DC to Atlanta, Georgia. On September 27, 1903 while en route from Monroe, Virginia, to Spencer, North Carolina, the train derailed at Stillhouse Trestle near Danville, Virginia. The wreck inspired a famous railroad ballad, which was the focus of a convoluted copyright lawsuit but became seminal in the genre of country music. My grandfather was one of the first to reach the scene of the wreck. Keith can probably relate more about the song than I can !

The funny thing is most people here have seen my "wood" and liked it. And I'm sure everyone will probably see a lot more of it too.

Now there's a story . I remember hearing and playing that tune on the old windup Victrola record player which sat in the Steam family hunting shack. Great memories, my dad recorded many of the old tunes onto cassette tapes, which is fortunate since the Victrola is now in the local museum, and the legendary steam family long gone
Hewas goin' down the grade making ninety miles an hour When his whistle began to a scream He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle And scalded to death by the steam

Mine is just my initials. Boring. I did try to use what I thought looked like a Canadian Flag []*[] on other boards but it was often confused with an a$$hole.

I wouldn't think I would have to explain but trmpt is just trumpet without the vowels. If I have to explain why trumpet, I might be on a fake forum!  Now the feisty part underneath...well, just ask anyone who knows me personally...it's fitting!
Any day on my bike is the best day ever! That would be my custom painted 2007 Speedmaster or my 2002 Daytona 955i also known as my salt racing bike!
