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.

qwip is just the name of my site, which is a bastardization of quip, but that was already taken. So it really means nothing.

My wife amusebuche and I are US ex-expats who've recently moved back to Sydney.
