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.


"Every day I fight the urge to drink, debauch women out of wed-lock and beat people on the street. One urge I do not have is to sell myself to the highest bidder."

--James Hill, Pirate candidate for Congress in Iowa.

"He will wonder whether he should have told these young, handsome and clever people the few truths that sing in his bones.
These are:
(1) Nobody can ever get too much approval.
(2) No matter how much you want or need, 'they', whoever 'they' are, don't want to let you get away with 'it', whatever 'it' is.
(3) Sometimes you get away with it."
--John Leonard, "Private Lives in the Imperial City"
