Dauphin is the model name of the Victoria Police helicopters and is also French for dolphin (they look like dolphins).

My current avatar is the Fairlane on a trip to Lake Albacutya at the far north western edge of Victoria. The car was parked facing the 4WD track that goes out into the huge lake bed. The lake hasn't had water for 22 years but we didn't know.

You don't seem bastardy to me, and I recognise the old Redmeat character. I like the Milkman Dan ones better though

Got nothing to do with my name, simply it's short for destruction. I shortened it to "des" because Space Invaders, Galaga and co. would only let you leave three letters....

From the bloke who gave us the first mass produced V8, to my favorite version of the mass produced V8. Yes, I know some other Ford donks may be bigger and better, but its the biggest Ford Australia put in a mid sized car. Luv 'em.

Mine's pretty self-explanatory. If you think you know my name, then my avatar at the moment and profile will be enough to confirm my identity!
