Sure, but only if you're the pilot. My skills in engineering aren't that high ^^
So I'm sticking to my beloved Jake for now (that's my car's name lol)
Cool, another person who gives names to their car. Our cars are called Hobbes and Crocodile (pronounced in French). Does that makes us weird?

Dude, stay away from me *makes a cross with fingers*. The only car names allowed are "Herbie", "Christine" and "Kit".

Nah, naming cars isn't weird at all! Especially when there's a good source of inspiration! /pat Pyx
Weirdness is a very subjective matter of perception, just like madness :D It would be weirder to name to your pc. Or have you already hehe
As for that flight demo, better hurry or I'll remember I don't like heights ^^

Haha assuming ofc that one can actually listen to radio while the engine is buzzing. But I totally get that, I let absolutely no one touch my car either - never - ever - ever. Actually, now that I think of it, I never considered it a good idea for passengers to fiddle around with buttons in someone else's car. It's better to leave the driver alone instead of annoying him like that. I for one just can't stand ppl trying to figure on their own where the radio is, or anything like that...

What Jae should actually do, is to get the biggest plane at hand and come get as many rc members as possible, and get a guild meeting started :D

Ok, thanks for dragging me into noobishness :P
Now I really think I'd use some updates on planes and their... interface? lol
But anyway, I wouldn't even think of touching anything around there, especially not important stuff ^^

Umm... I have named my car, all 4 of my computers (in more or less disrepair), my iPod and my cell phone... Yes, I'm a bit obsessive...
Names are as follows (just because I can): My car is Lust (after Lust in FMA). My computers are Hayate (stationary, works), Hana (windows laptop, doesn't work), Kyo (mac laptop, sort-of works) and Hitsugaya, also known as Whitey-chan (mac laptop, works and is my WoW computer). My iPod is Habashira, and my cell phone is Hiruma. Pixel-cookies to the one who can manage to connect the varying names to the correct animes (and pick out the one who doesn't come from one).

I'm a network engineer.

Thus, I have to sometimes plan domains and their naming-scheme.

Recently, I had to do basically names for 8x8 computers...domains were easy, just alice,betty,chloe, daisy,erika,fanny,grace,holly...now have to think of 8 names for each :)

At home all my nodes are Elfquest references :) Laptop is Blackfell, gaming PC is woodshaver, older PC is choplicker, guest names are Berrybuzz, Littlesky and Tickletoe :)

I've named my mounts in WoW after ElfQuest characters (wolves, mainly). My ram is Holdfast, my 60% flappy is Warfrost and my epic flappy is Skywise. And the wasp I picked up today (which might get exchanged for a moth) ended up with Aroree. ^^

Edited for not thinking before posting. 2 are named after wolves. The other two are elves. *slaps self*

Hehe. I'm at times a bit obsessed with ElfQuest. To my great joy, I found a good portion of the story online on ElfQuest's official homepage. It's so strange to read it in colour... Almost all of the books I have is black/white...
