VIAN comes from VItor ANtunes, my name. The idea was taken from SEGA, which stands for SErvice GAmes. I was looking for a more serious, business type name that didn't really mean anything, but was short, sounded nice, and had some kind of logical origin.

A stoned man in a climbing gym bestowed it upon me when someone commented on my sketchy throwing.

Technically it's SketchMaster premium unleaded, Plain SketchMaster was taken and so was SketchMaster premium unleaded Plus But I just use SketchMaster since it's easier to type.

EAP is one of my fav authors. When I registered at AT, I had just finished reading the poem "Lenore" because I was watching KOTH right before that, and I thought it would be cool to pay homage and have a sig that I could change up periodically to show what was on my mind. I haven't changed it lately though. I guess I'll do it now...
 
I saw OJ simpson in a supermarket about..7 or 8 years ago. My friends never believed me so I made my username for everything to spite them.

Heh... the name bob was so generic and smith was so common that I thought I'd throw 'em together when I was making my first email account (hotmail)... then, it wasn't available and they suggested numbers, but I thought "In forteen hundred and ninety-two, Colombus sailed the ocean blue...." and added that as the number.

I've been bob in games ever since, and bob_smith1492 everywhere else - helps me feel anonymous. 🙂
