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.

My first internet experience was in 1990. I had found my father's copy of Leisure Suit Larry III and had been playing it whenever he and my mother went out for groceries. The game begins with a trivia sequence that determines whether you'll play at a PG or R level. I needed answers, and I found them online.
