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.

Picked up the handle in the late 90's. Poor dial up connection and underwhelming computer skills found me with this error message. I liked the tone. Chicago native. I love good film. Lean left politically. Work at a non-profit. Used to like good beer particularly when it was cheap, before I quit drinking.
