The long story of my name, strictly because I'm bored:

When I was in high school, there was this burrito shack that I used to eat at all the time where all the employees spoke very little english. But for some reason, they still insisted on calling out your name when they finished your order--even though they couldn't pronounce english names.

So, to be cruel, I would write long complex made-up names on my orders and wait until they called me at least three or four times before actually picking up my order. You know, just to watch them wrestle with it.

One time, the name i put down was "voboigel", and the clerk spent a good thirty seconds going "vabogee? vabogee? vabogee?" before I stepped up to get my food. And that sorta stuck in my head for some reason.

That's where I got my name [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

tkkj - the first initials of me, my wife, and my oldest 2 kids. The third kid came along too late to get in on the action. Need to change that one of these days.

soup - a reference to my last name, think "major producer of soup in the U.S." Also, everyone called me soup in college.

This isn't my usual sn online, it started because I was playing a game online and I created an account to mess around with one of the races, the fallen race. So, that's the reason for the nick, lack of time+lack of imagination.
When I started playing poker online, stars said my usual sn (Nuwanda) was already being used so...here we are.
