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.

Christian is my name.

I am, however, not a christian. I guess that's ironic.

I'm generally belligerent, but I try to be nice to people who aren't sucking all over themselves.

I first started using the internet when I convinced my dad to buy a 286 for something in the ballpark of three grand. i'm pretty sure he still hates me for that one.

I think the defining moment for me, when I wanted to actually build websites and found the web to be the sort of thing I was looking for, was when I first stumbled across www.fray.com.

I guess that just makes me yet another Powazek fanboy.
