Editorial Notice...
The Management would like to inform you that from now on all individuals will be referred to either by name or initial. The use of nicknames will be discontinued except in cases where it is either a) hugely amusing (e.g. Buddha Buddy) or b) appropriate because the management is just in one of those moods (e.g. one of my exes was known as The Evil One for a couple of years).
We apologize if this causes any confusion, but the current number of individuals requiring nicknames has made it difficult to choose truly interesting ones. Heck, it's taken me how long to finish naming the cars? There's no way I can pick really good nicknames quickly enough to accommodate new people and incorporate them into my stories.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled journal reading.
