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.

I am not a foodie, it's just my last name. One time I ate nothing but clifbars for two weeks. Not even different types of clifbars. I don't care about food much at all. Other than that I'm a pretty cool guy. I am a writer, stand up comic, and painter. I live in DC right now.
