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.

Nangar is Sumerian for carpenter. The cuneiform character (my profile pic) looks kind of like a guy carrying a board if you look at it sideways. There is no connection with Nangar Park in New South Wales.
