Your screen name is what? And what about that avatar??

[gurzik]

Like Ness I have a long complicated Czech last name. Gurzik is how it is pronounced. My avatar is me with a sweet 4lb largemouth with its winter lip stick on. Had to give her a kiss!!

Years ago when we first came  to LOZ we had a small business and traveled to crafts shows around Mlo. We built birdhouses and also miniaturized peoples homes plus a couple of big houseboats. There are several in Collections. Believe it or not people do collect them.  Those birdhouses have wound up all over from California to Germany that I know of.  The name of the business was Ozarkian Creations. Birdtown USA. The Ozarkian just sort of stuck.

Thanks. Now I get it. 😄

I've actually seen the bird houses, and if I owned one I wouldn't let just any old nastyass bird live in it.   It would have to be a very Regal Buurd.

I grew up bass fishing and figured plastic worm would be a fitting name when I joined a few forums years ago.  However, it really doesn't fit anymore but it's part of my history so I won't change it.  Avatar...I love redfish.

I use that Ozarkian so much i just forgot where I was. Old plug is more discription  of what I am but the one Wrench pictured is a lot better than me. Prettier also IHmmmmm might change my avatar to Demented. That seems a lot closer.

I often figure out where I am then wonder why I'm there.

Awhile back my wife asked if I had gotten the mail yet and I said no but I'll go get it now.  On the way out to the mailbox I looked up the road and thought "wonder if those blackberry's up the road are about ready yet", so I mosey up there (about 100 yards) to take a look.  Got to thinking about something and just kept walking right past the blackberry patch.  A guy I know came driving down the road, stopped, and we sat there BS'ing for 15-20 minutes, then I started moseying back home.   I walk in the door, start making a sandwich, and my wife says "no mail"?   I said, Oh crap I dunno I forgot to check.  She says well I saw you walk out there!  I said, yeah I walked up to see if the blackberry's were ripe yet and spaced off checking the mail.   She says, well were they?   I said ....hmmm I dunno I forgot to look.    She says well what the hell did you do?   I said I ran into Rob, was up there talking to him and got sidetracked.   

She says, "Side-tracked hu?   Let me see your eyes!"  😀
