What is the story or meaning behind your username on R2R? How long have you had it? Tell me your secrets

Mine stems from an episode of Sherlock from BBC called The Hounds of Bakersville where at some point in the plot there is a fluorescent rabbit. After looking into it they did actually make such a rabbit through genetic modification with a species of jellyfish Aequorea victoria. 221B is Holme's apartment number. Side note, I havn't seen the rest of the series but I was.... *cough* inebriated when I came up with it.
 
My car. Sort of... Long story, but I own a 68 Corvette and my dad has a 67 Corvette. My dad bought the 67 in the mid 70's, and I grew up looking at that car my whole life. So when I was old enough, and could afford it, I bought my own in 1999. He passed away in 2015, and my mom still drives the 67. So eventually, I will have to sell my 68 so I can make room for the 67. I chose the 67 to use as my username, even though I don't own one, but my dad's is a much nicer car, so I'd rather be associated with that one! The 67 is the maroon car, and the 68 is the black one. So, that's the basic the story....

I’m a writer, and in my main story there’s a University that was built on the Florida coast in 1923. It was near a particular bay called ‘Frigus Reef’ and a lot of the fraternity boys liked to hang out there and drink cream soda.
I love Floridian reefs and that’s what I want to replicate in my aquarium. I also want to raise awareness of our reefs and their importance in the ecosystem.

Beautiful cars. Do they still get driven much?

I Just like Starwars lol
Me too man. I was obsessive about it as a kid. I still have about 6x 20 gallon totes filled with collectables!

The 67 does, the 68 is in the middle of a frame rebuild. It has been a while since I have driven the 68, and it may be a while before it gets driven again. I almost have the body off the frame. Perhaps sometime this winter. I still have a lot of work to get the 68 ready to drive.

The first book I remember my mother reading me. Made in 1960 like me.
My parents always called me Ned. I didn't find out it wasn't my name until I went to school. The teacher, who was a stranger at the time told me what my parents called me wasn't my real name. A very upsetting experience for a child. I could already write Ned when I got there. My parents had to come get me that day.
Things you never forget.
My mother and father never told me why they called me Ned instead of the name they put on my birth certificate.
Ned is my real name. It's just not my legal name.
