Oh... "War Head"... NOW I get it...

[Disco Scottie]

It's named Warhead because it's the WARmoth HEADstock. See, nothing gets by me. Sooner or later I figure things out.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't get that right away?

Made sense to me the 1st time, but I usually don't get a lot of other things.

[grabby]

Uhm, I hate to admit it, but I still don't get it.  :help:

OK, that's an overstatement. But I didn't get it at first either.

 

[B3Guy]

wow, I didn't catch it either. The name fits the shape pretty well, even without the W reference.

This forum was almost called the Warzone. Same sort of Warmoth reference but too askew we decided.

My favorite line, "Yeah, it's ready.  We're fixin' to have it actually burned down to a CD."

The pic is so awesome, too - like he's about to rock you OUT OF YOUR MIND!!!!

Although I prefer "Beautiful Sunrises" - pretty heavy stuff.

Well being in the northwest, and with heavy Native Indian surroundings.....It could have been "War-Path"...

I got it immediately, but I'm a computer programmer. You develop an automatic reflex for decoding words or acronyms that aren't in general use because they often have secondary meanings. Plus, variable names are often abbreviations for longer terms or phrases and made up of single syllables trained together to form a unique word/identifier. The military originated that sort of thing. Abbreviations like "ComSubLant" for "Commander, Submarines, Atlantic" or "ComPacFlt" for "Commander, Pacific, Fleet", etc. are as common as dirt.
