Home, Sweet Home
An explanation of the name
On initiation into the mysteries of the 'net, and particularly that section of it who spend a majority of their time playing online games of the quake variety, I was amazed at the names selected by the other participants.
"DUmM******ka", "noBRainz", "IQ" (touch of irony there), and a multitude of everyday words with "z"'s instead of "s"'s. So I tried to think of the name least likely to be used by anyone else on the net and settled on Bernard.
So stop hassling me.
All About Me
My real name's Gareth, and if you must know more about me I have a homepage, but i should warn you that it's not (yet) very good (or even online...). In fact you'd be much better off checking out one my articles:
The Accepted Ones!The Ones Which Were Rejected Because A Similar Entry Already ExistedThe Ones Which Were Rejected Because They Were Completely Fictitious- Shoelaces - Even I don't like this one that much, so I guess it's the one I mind least having had rejected - having said which I think it's still better than many of the official articles (I apologise for my arrogance)
- Flip-flops - Its unfortunate really, that the editors have a policy of rejecting articles without any basis in fact, because most of my funniest articles, including this one, which is undoubtedly my favourite, fall foul of just that problem. But never mind, people can still read them here.
- Taxpayers Check out the comment from an American who failed to notice the joke...
Any comments would be appreciated... if only so I know you've been looking.
