Okay, how the heck did you know that, Z? Did I mention it on a profile somewhere and forget I'd done it?

Yeah, but I never, ever use it. My parents have always called my brother and I by our slightly more unusual middle names.

Oh, as for Argus, I got that name from the company that made Garfield posters back in the 80s

Actually, you never mentioned it once. But, I did have enough info to work with. Took me 3 minutes.
First off, your last name... not very common. That made things simple. Second, your age... I knew how old you were, and that helped to isolate it further. Finally, I checked the info on your website. I had hoped to conclusively determine what state you lived in, but nothing came up, just repeated references to the south. But you did mention a festival in downtown Charlotte (I assumed North Carolina) in your blog.
With all that, I got your name, address, phone number, wife's name, everything, all within 3 minutes.
The Internet makes things so easy to stalk someone, it's almost scary. You wouldn't believe the info you can find on yourself if you just look, let alone others. Good thing I don't use my powers for evil!

Well, the blog just confirmed North Carolina. I had already figured it anyways.

Yep, 100 miles almost due north of Matt. (he's threatened to sic Nooni on me at times)
Wow, I haven't written in the blog since summer - and I was griping about not writing any more!

I think it's Who. ;D Or better... "I Don't Care", shortstop he is. LOL! That skit is one of the top three funniest things I have ever heard. ;D Ah, Abbott and Costello... Wait... what if Argus was the unnamed right fielder?  Ah, someone does recognize what I was referring. Glad to know there are others who've seen Abbott and Costello as I did. I remember watching them on TV every Sunday when I was a child.  |

My dad has an old casette tape with about a half-hours worth of A&C skits on it. Everything from "Who's on First" to "U-Drive". Non-stop hilarity. ;D And their movies ain't all that bad, either. |
