Also very amusing is that John refers to his sister as Rat. She doesn't really seem to deserve such a name, but it all started in childhood, and as we know, John is unable to refer to anyone by their real name.
Also, that brings up one of my favorite stories: As Rat's 16th birthday approached, John asked her what she wanted. She of course replied that she wanted a car. Only being 21 or 22 years old, her brother was unable to provide the real thing for his little sister, so he got her the next best thing: a Hot Wheels car called The Ratmobile. It was just a rat on wheels. She never took it out of the package and it lay sitting on a table for a very long time, and every time I saw it, I laughed myself silly.

I was perusing jackassery when I came upon this oldie but goodie. I even wrapped the ratmobile up and everything.
This also reminds me of the orgin behind the name, Rat.One rainy afternoon Becca came home drenched and commented she looked like a wet rat. She was only about 12 years old at the time, but the name stuck. Few of my nicknames have lasted as long. Even Shemp is preceded by this. Maybe I should bring back some of the good old nicknames such as HERB or BERT. I'm sure Ross would enjoy this, as he probably misses being refered to as such,or maybe not. Let me know if you would prefer this to Johnson.
