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.

"Jason" was the most popular boy's name in 1969, the year I was born. However, I never knew many other Jasons until I started using the Internet. I changed the 's' to a 'z' to stand out. That's all. Nothing cryptic.
