When I was a youngun..my Pop had an unusually large (well..to me anyways..I reckon in reality, I wont no bigger than a minute) redtick coonhound by the name of Big Red. Coon huntinest dog in these parts he was, and just so happened to be my best freind. Went everywheres w/ me..and always looked out after me while we were coonhuntin.
Hence..my Pop called me Lilred. Its always nice to know you was nick-named after a a big ole dog...lol
The locals still call me Lilred..and most of the folks at werk now tha they know my "name".
