The Big Green ZX has found a new home. People say that the best times with a boat are when you buy it and when you sell it. I don;t think that those are boat people. I will be very sad to see it go but feel good that it it going to a good home with CJMike in Minnesota.

None the less, I will also have to relinquish the infamous Big Green ZX title.

I am looking for a couple of directions. I have picked out a few themes and have some potential names.

The first idea is keeping with the theme of my avatar (although I will change the pic)

The second one is to do something to do with my new 540.

The third is totally obscure but moderately thought provoking

How do you change your name anyway? I have been wanting to do that every since I got started on my new project.

My vote is for something to do with the avatar, no matter what project you have or working on it won't have to change again, how about Big Bill and leave Ron Jeremy as the avatar. Steve

Agreed. You could always paint the 26 green.:propeller:

Bill,
If you paint the 26 green I am going to come up there and knock some sense into your head!!:smash: That is one very hot boat!!!


Poodle,
PM me!! I guess after the mistery event down in south FL...you could use a little extra income right now!! If the bribe is high enough can you throw in the rest of the story?

I guess I'm confused about a few things.....
you talk about big engines and going fast, but you call it the "big GREEN ZX......so what's the truth??????
So is it GREEN???? (Hybrid, battery, diesel electric????)
Or is it something else????:wink::confused:

MOP,
I think Boss Hog fits him perfectly!!

George,
The 27 ZX is a lot GREENER than it used to be now that it has a 454 instead of a blown 502 MAG. That is the point of the name change...His new 26 ZX is not GREEN in any way and it will not look BIG for long as he pulls away from everyone headed into the sunset!! With the BIG Brodies and the monster 540ci and the blower and tricked out fuel system I am waiting on the report of 1,000 HP from the dyno pull! NOT GREEN!!!

The Hedgehog
03-12-2008, 12:31 PM
:tase:Oh the ZX is still Big and Green. I am sure that it will be faster again. I just had to pull the fuel consuming blower motor out and go with a nice stock Mag MPI. Yes, it is unquestionably "Greener" now and burns a lot less fuel. :beer:

I love the color of the boat and got many compliments on it.

The new boat, well that will be a fossil fuel loving machine! Yes, 1,000 hp has been extracted from my setup. :eek!: Now you don't think that I would be dropping all of that money for a mere 700hp now do you? Maybe I have a surprise up my sleeve for AOTH where I unleash a 1,100 hp monster with an Arneson. J/K. (I would not be surprised if a friend of mine pulls that off though!)

No, I am just looking for a name that is more typical of my character. I can't go with anything boat specific anymore since I am probably doomed to always own two Donzi's.
I was leaning toward the porn theme because I think it is funny and well:smileybo::pimptwo:mmm and:eek::rock::sombrero::thumbsup: you know, I like to shock folks at times

What about "3D" ??? OR triple threat?? I know you are going to break through the triple digit MPH zone!!

Maybe "XXX" that would kill two birds with one stone!! Your boat and your avatar!!

ZXXX Donzi is my OSO name. It is fine for that forum but I think that it lacks the character (or lack of) that is needed for the donzi.net

OK, now I understand!
Ya see, until someone else mentioned the name of the person depicted in your avatar, I thought either it was either a;
A) 40 year old picture of Freddy Fender, but since I've never seen Freddy looking so full of himself, I thought it must be a picture of
B) Yourself.
But once I had a name to go with the smirking picture, I Googled it and found out it is a porn star.
I had to Google it because, while I'm pretty well informed about current events, I don't look at, watch, or read about porn. There are a whole world of things much more important to me.
So.....you missed the mark w/me, and probably some others.
I wasn't shocked or offended. But I digress......
If you really want to get the job done, and universally shock and offend everyone, so that there's no misunderstanding what your intention is, maybe you should consider one of the following, something;
A) Anti-Semetic
B) Anti-Christian, or
C) Anti-Muslim (maybe a cartoon of a certain person)
See what I mean???????
Any of the above would be universally understood, and could make your life EXCITING. :eek!:

That is a great response George! I will laugh for a while.

I am surprised that everyone is so against the porn theme. As Keith says: Haters!

SilverBack

Bill,
I would tell you to take "C" but that guy over in Europe has been in hiding for several years now!

I am shocked and appauled:shocking:!

You and Bryan need to clean up your acts! You are giving the ZX guys a bad name!!:hangum:

It's about a protracted discussion we had about three years ago. We settled it then. Maybe it shouldn't come up again.
Just my opinion.

George, I think a combination of the avatar, and your Freddy Fender reference would be hilarious for a screen name/avatar.
Leave the pic of Mr. Jeremy and add the name Freddy Fender underneath.
Slight confusion is always funny.... :D

I worked with a guy named Ernie C o c k (for real, you can't make this stuff up). He pronounced it "Cox" for obvious reasons :doh:

Had to add spaces because the word filter caught it. Imagine what it's like for him in real life.......
