"Gerry_The_Hun" was already taken...
1.)I take this for a joke, although it hurts a bit.....
2.) I already explaned the origin of my username
In the early 70's (1970-74) I used to hang around with a group of motorcyclists from the nearby city of Lahr/Germany where we had a canadian airbase. Some of the canadian guys had jeans-jackets with their name and "logo" sewn on the back. I was very impressed and very sorry, that I could not compete with their dress. My nickname with the group war Gerry, since the candians had problems to pronounce my real name. On one of those days I could lay my hands on an old Minnesota-Vikings t-shirt. I cut out the vikinghead and my mother sew it on the back of my jacket.
From this day on I was "Gerry the Viking".

Gerry - you are NOT a "dumb kraut" (I am mostly German and Austrian by ancestry myself). Send a message to CarKnee and I'm sure he'll change your username.
PS - Sorry about the "Hun" thing - I thought it was funny... If you ask my wife - she'd say I'm mostly "Hun" myself. ...or is that "Hung"? [/emoticons/emotion-5.gif]

Vikings were conquerers......just a little joking man![/emoticons/emotion-5.gif]
Everyone tries to lay a claim they discovered America. We were already here since the beginning![/emoticons/emotion-5.gif] Columbus, Americus Vespoopi, and all the others just visited a already populated nation.
