We have a LT. that they call the Mule, but they don't call him that because he is strong.

I had one that was Lt. Nozzelhead because I caught a runaway 2 and a half in the head and sent to the hospital. But now it's Pooch because when I learned how to swim all I could do was doggie paddle. We also have the probie, the mad samoan and bubba.

One of the things that has evolved in our station is the traditional assigning of the nickname. I have the honor of awarding the earned monicker.
