About

What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

Nothing much really... just a shortening of my surname. Its actually the same nickname my father had at work. I remember being a youngster and hearing some of his co-workers call him that and thinking "cool, he has a nickname." Years later (in college--how stereotypical), my friends started calling me the same nickname. As for the internet, I've been hanging around for a quite while. I started using the internets in 1992.
