First time a box labeled "Pelican Parts" showed up on my doorstep the wife looked at me like I was crazy. I told her it was pre-packaged cat treats.

She didn't find it amusing.

The Pelican Name?

[FastCarFan]

I am a relative late-comer, & I figured everyone else knew the origin of the name.

Come on Wayne. We need to know!

Porsche-O-Phile...Why is it that everytime I read one of your replies I find myself giggling like a little girl. Your corrupted mind reminds me of mine..I just dont say those things. Cat Food....

as Wayne said in an earlier post

Well, we tried to come up with a good, unique name. Something along the lines of ********, or some other ones, I can't print here. It's a lot tougher coming up with a name than you would think. After spending about 10 hours just looking at ourselves in frustration, we took the cars up to Palos Verdes to take a photo shoot for the website. When we were done a Pelican flew over head, and we said "Pelican Parts". By that time we were too tired to consider whether it was a good name or not, but it did seem memorable, and that's what we were shooting for. Plus it fit in with the whole SoCal theme. And to boot, at least it wasn't as goofy as Tweeks!

Thought it was based on big bills and having web (feet) content.
