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 nickname has a story, and by story I mean "fable", it began with the Super Bowl with the Broncos and Falcons. Being a good resident of Missouri, I disliked John Elway and the Broncos, and I adopted a nickname with a morphing of 'Falcon' in it. Soon enough, I think I joined the nickname I am using here when I joined Fark. Robert is my rarely used first name (I am a middle namer, like Nolan Ryan, Grover Cleveland and possibly some other guys).

But in the time it took for you to read my profile, the treasure has been moved to another location.
