Mike P What? When the hell did that happen? Filthy Japs... apparently, they just came out with this new-fangled automobile, too. I'll try to find an article on that, too.

Hey thanks

Hey I noticed that there weren't any threads about those dirty Japs attacking Pearl Harbor either. Maybe I could throw up a few articles?
Oct 19th, 2003 09:27 PM
Mike P Yeah... but it wasn't up on this site, so I figured I would put it up.
Oct 19th, 2003 08:46 PM
KevinTheOmnivore It's also really, really old news.

Optimus Prime: Natonal Guardsman

National guardsman changed his name to a toy
Reported by Vic Gideon

CUYAHOGA FALLS -- A member of Ohio's 5694th National Guard Unit in Mansfield legally changed his name to a Transformers toy.

Optimus Prime is heading out to the Middle East with his guard unit on Wednesday to provide fire protection for airfields under combat.

"On Sunday, we were announced as the best firefighting unit in the Army National Guard in the entire country," said Prime. "That was a big moment for us."

Prime took his name from the leader of the Autobots Transformers, which were popular toys and a children's cartoon in the 1980s.

He legally changed his name on his 30th birthday and now it's on everything from his driver's license, to his military ID, to his uniform.

"They razzed me for three months to no end," said Prime. "They really dug into me about it."

Prime says the toy actually filled a void in his life when it came out.

"My dad passed away the year before and I didn't have anybody really around, so I really latched onto him when I was a kid," he said.

Either this is really cool or really, really sad. I can't decide.
