How did your username originate?

I was origanally raising chickens and rabbits, thus creating C&Rman. Now I am all about peafowl so it should be C&R&Pman haha! Plus C&R is also my initals, so thats a bonus

My parents were Kentucky Colonels too, I'd forgotten about that. We're from Illinois, but it was tourism industry related. I wonder if I still have the cert somewhere.

My handle is because that's what I do. I carve gargoyles, as well as pretty much anything else in limestone or marble. Here's a limestone rooster I did when I worked on the Nat'l Cathedral, it's about 160' up on one of the west front towers, along with a sea creature gargoyle that I carved a few months ago. The sea creature juts out of a tower on a house on the Atlantic coast.

Wow Gargoyle, those are amazing!

The last thing I managed to carve successfully was a small block of plaster, into what I claimed was a rock outcrop.

I'm British and married to an American guy that loved my cheese sandwiches made with Branston Pickle! So much so, that we named our black Labradoodle Mr. Branston Pickle! Nothing atall to do with chickens!
 
My parents gave it to me and I was too tired when I signed on to think of a name. It's pronounced Jody. Their names were Joe and Edie. They said they were "signing off" when they had me.
