Nothing heroic or romantic here. I just live near, fish in, and hunt beside the McLeod River in Alberta.



The greatest officer I ever had the pleasure to know was a Captain Mcleod, a former 1st Cav officer who was my CO at Ft Riley, Ks circa '74 (701st Mt Bn, Co. C)

Hey my DaneBramage moniker hails from my Alcoholism. I am sober today and have been sober six years nine months exactly as of this very day!! And I'm forgetful and easily distracted....

When I first hit the Internet I didn't know there was an F version of the Panther.

So it stuck.

Mine is pretty simple. I got tired of “Panzercmdr” and decided to go with "ModernArmorGirl" since I’m just a girl who loves to build anything that is modern in armor.

My name is simple. I can't stop buying model kits and miniatures [and maybe build some] whatever I do.

I own and operate a gun shop, so, gunrunner is appropriate, the number is my address.

Quoted Text

Mine reflects my preferred original scale for model building although I have diversified
1/35 for armor, 1/32 for jets, 1/72 for boats and anything for sci-fi.

However, it's my real surname draws more comment! It seems there's some experession in the States about a load of .........



Just re-reading some of these... My hockey buds, well a couple of them anyway, used to always call me mularky. My last name is Clark, I always liked Clarkie, but mularky stuck... Go figure eh? And the expression may have originated North of the border....at least that's what I've been told. Sorry if I'm wrong, or right....

For me, I just got tired of trying to gin-up a unique name for all the sites requiring registration...so I just went with the basics.

I have no clue how my grey mass produced this bizarre name.

I guess it was pure lack of creativity at the moment that I enlisted on the site and I needed "something".

I have grown fond of it over time (guess no-one will ever tkae me serious anymore after this confession)
