I read this book back in the day by Samuel R Delany called Dhalgren. It’s a trippy book, but I’ve always thought the name was cool. So, when I can get it, I use Dhalgren. I don’t always get it first, though

While I don’t use it on here (due to branding purposes ), I have used the name online name bombtrak since about 1992 or so. I had to come up with an 8 character name, so I grabbed a music magazine and flipped through until I ran into a review of RATM’s first album. I plucked the song title Bombtrack, dropped the ‘c’ and never looked back.

I’ve used that name on many a game and website.

That would be “BuddyPickle” Steven … (sjees. .. the kind of stuff one learns on the internet and still remembers after years … it never ceases to amaze me)

Speaking of nicknames … I’ve been JaFO since I got on-line. The only change was the addition of Dutch as JaFO was already taken. And the origin ? It’s mentioned in the movie ‘Blue Thunder’ and it kind of stuck.

I’m getting tired of the correlation between video gaming and adolescence. I wish we’d get past that as a society.

That said, I’ve used this moniker since 1995. I have thought about changing it a few times. Not because I feel that I’ve “outgrown” it but because I think it would be interesting to try changing it after all this time. It would be hard to adjust, though, so I don’t.

If you look up the old RealToons Scott used to do, you’ll notice they’re signed with
Scott ‘BP’ Johnson.

What’s BP stand for, Scott, and what ever happened to it?
