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.

Darren. As in Darren McGavin. Grew up in '60s, so when Bewitched was on, I endured being called "Derwood", "Darwin", "Durbin", etc. a la Agnes Moorehead.

Actually, I like my name. It's much more common now than it was 30 years ago, but it's kewl.
