My son wants to see Zippy again.

I told him, thats Mr. Zippy to him.

Zippy was at my home 2 years ago and my son remembers som guy named Zippy.

He wanted to know if that guy named Zippy would be there.

He want to know why his name is Zippy.

Tell him it's 'cause Zippy never stays in one place for long--he's always Zipping around the country! Personally, I think he would fit just fine in a "Where's Waldo" outfit! Of course, I got the easy way to find him--just look for that umbrella of his!

I remember reading a thread explaining Zippy user name. It went something like...He tried other numerous other names but they were taken so he pick the first one that took. Is that right Zippy? I found a thread but he didn't explain it.

Link to the origin of Zippy sort of???

I wouldn't let him near my kid! Zippy might turn him into some kind of Corvette obsessed speed junkie.

Joe: Looking forward to seeing your son again.

How did I get the name Zippy? I needed to come up with a username for a work computer and for some unknown reason the name "Zippy" just popped into my head, so when I started using this internet thingee, I just stuck with Zippy.
