My nick is the same Nick/handle i've used since I was a kid. Back when I was learning to drive My father joked that my middle name should have been "Dent" cause I wrecked 2 trucks, and my moms mustang.....then when I got into Racing (Other than drag racing) I couldn't complete a race without totaling Mine or anothers car, and everyone got to calling me "Dented Rick" the name kinda stuck
As far as my Avatar, I love Turtles, and have a strong Gaelic Heritage.
