My standard reply: "ask the people who work with me."

Real story goes back several years ago, when my oldest son got interested in bowling, we used to put nicknames into the scorekeeper, rather than real names. My son was, and still is "Slimmy Hoffa." Craig was "Big Shirley" (an old sit-com reference). There was "Tdub", "Smoooooooth", "K-Mac", "Big Ern" (now "EAZEE"), and me, the "Grumpy Old Dude." Bowling scorekeepers display initials, so I was on the board as a bowling GOD.

These days, I'm a little bit mellower than I was, but I can still channel "Grumpy "when the situation calls for it!
