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.

Several years ago, when I was somewhat more, er, portly, I owned a very smart, long navy-blue coat. When wearing it, this apparently made me look like a Mafia don and I picked up the nickname Don Franco. As for teh "The", well, why not?
