The guys in the car club I'm in here in Austin apparently knew too many Matt's... So, being a recent transplant from arkansas they started calling me arkansas Matt to distinguish me from the others. Although raised in arkansas I am Texas born!

"Crash" because the first motorcycle I ever owned was in Saudi Arabia and in those dunes and rocky plains and hills I spent more time upside down than right side up.......But as a friend said, "If you ain't crashin', you ain't learnin'."

Wade fishing for flounder in November mid 1980's on Boliver side of Boliver ferry landing. Water temperature low 50's, air temperature mid 40's, sprung a leak in chest waders. Fished most of the day although miserable. Once I returned home I cleaned and dried the waders, sealed the seams and let them cure. Tested waders in heated pool, no leak. Back to same fishing spot in December under similar conditions, sprung a leak in same spot, another long uncomfortable day. My fishing companion for both trips started referring to me as Leaky Waders. After the internet was invented by Al Gore and websites started using user names, Leaky Waders was the first thing to come to my mind. That.s my story and I'm sticking to it.

Combination of first and last names. No killing involved.

That's the town I grew up in in the 50's. I dare you to come up with a more Texas patriotic name!
