Misconseptions due to screen name or avatar.

My username has nothing to do with adult films. It is just my first two initials and my last name, Sporn. Also, contrary to my avatar, I am not a rainbow mane and tailed Pegasus, and my Rickenbacker is a fretless JetGlo.

My user name is the opposite. I chose it in jest because I'm a sarcastic S.O.B. who is not easily offended.

Try "Googling" it spelled backwards.

I doubt anyone has confusion about me from my screen name and avatar...especially if they're from the PAC-12. The same logo is on this sweatshirt....

No BS you look exactly how I thought you'd look.

That's kinda scary.

I remember you saying something about being a professor at a college or something and from that point on I decided you looked not like a professor but a college football coach.
If either of those have a "look"
None the less, to me you look like you should be holding a play book and yelling at a team to get it together.
That's how I imagined you, and you didn't let me down.
I also decided early on that getting into intellectual arguments with you was probably not wise.
I'm guessing I was right all around.
I must be psychic.
 
My username is a combination of a nickname given to me by a former bandmate, and my favorite Rush album.

My name is Richard - a.k.a. Dick - and the "Super" was added by my guitarist one night at rehearsal when we played "Spirit of Radio" for the very first time & I managed to pull it off without any mistakes (including all of the Taurus pedal parts). :bassist:

I think most everyone here knows where 2112 comes from.
:D

I may change it someday. I see way too many usernames on TB that end with 2112, & while I am a Rush fan, I no longer play in a Rush tribute band (hard & heavy original material these days), and the "Dick" moniker prompts a lot of bad jokes & raised eyebrows.

Oh, and the avatar changes often - whatever suits the mood that week.
 
I always figured Bill F looked something like this:

(Bill, if you're watching, I'm just messing with you..)
