My other expensive hobby is raising and showing dogs, Irish Wolfhounds. Years ago on a Irish Wolfhound mail list I started using Padraig as there were three others Pats. Padraig's Cu, Irish for Patrick's Hound, is my Kennel name.

First go fast was a 23' stingray in "arrest me red" that boat took a beating! Way too small and light for my area and driving habits.
"Lil Red" that simple

Last name = Sommer. (Sort of) fast boat = Flies By. Plus, its a cool double entendre, because that season does seem so very short here in Chicago...

Mine was a play on my business / occupation....lettering... Fleet graphics company owner.

We joked that there would be a lot of riped letters along the way of having a $ boating habit !

So when I named the boat some friends said to play on that... Hence "lettettrip" dual play on words & boat name & screen name.

Mine is obvious....when I was lurking I wondered what people owned while reading posts. I didn't want anyone to wonder.
