I kept and bred emerald tree boas for 10 years. Dogboa is a common name given by a Spaniard, based on a profile view of the head, which looks like a dog sans ears. Thus the origin of the species name caninus. My avatar is not an emerald, but a picture my wife took of a friends Guatemalan palm viper. 
 
Back when I was returning to San Diego for shore duty with my now but then soon to be wife, we found a little rancher two blocks from the beach in Imperial Beach.  I landed a part time night job at a dive bar on the water and made some life-long friends.  One friend, Linda, INSISTED on calling me 'Jimmy' even though i hated the monicker.  I always just went by 'James'  or 'Jay.'  Me being the self-proclaimed pit master, and being the only one of us down by the beach with a private yard, Sundays after a late night at the bar became 'BBQ at Jimmy's."  It got to a point that we didn't even invite people anymore, they would just show up promptly at about 1'ish with beer in hand.  

One day someone commented on my cue and asked what kind of sauce I buy and where do I buy it.  I gave him a sideways look, but before I could speak, Linda says, "That's Jimmyjam's special sauce, dumbass."
 
Reelboat.  Big time fisherman and boater.  My firdt offshore boat we called the "reel mistress" because we love fishing and we all know what a mistress would do to you. Same thing that a boat will do to you.  As I said I'm big into boating, Own 2 and fishing.  Reelboat was appropriate.
 
As a kid in my early teens all my neighborhood buddies we would switch our names backwards, in half and half to come up with some weird names to call ourselves so Joe Boyko became Boykjo, Okyob and okadahob....LOL Rub the name in your buddy's face when you scored a touchdown over him..... Those were some good times... Kinda like the movie "The sandlot".....
 
I have been in the HVAC business for 20+ years and fabricated/ installed a lot of sheet metal. Just kind of fitting.
