I had originally planned to start a website with a few of my friends a while back called "Dojo of Segata Sanshiro" in which we would do nothing but super-in-depth reviews of Sega games. I remember, because the site was a dojo, my brother would have been called "The Student" or something like that, and I took the name apprentice.

Ack is the American corruption of the German 'Ach,' an exclamation of extreme pain and surprise. It's kind of annoying at times, as people shout it or post it on boards I go to.

Honestly, I've been using it for years now, ever since I can remember since it fit in arcade machines. I don't know where it came from originally, I just sort of started using it.

Mine has kind of morphed from Ray_Dash to X-RayDash to simply xraydash over the years at various sites. My twin boys, Ray and Dashiell, were the initial source of inspiration.

I used to assume it was for air ducts or something. Maybe he was a big MGS fan.

He basically mutilated, sexually tortured, and killed just about anyone he didn't like, and always had some religious reason for doing it. I can't quite remember why, but his body appears to be made of thick stone or wood.

It suits me.

A fugue (pronounced fyoog) is a type of musical composition over 400 years old and is incredibly complex and beautiful when written by masters. Unlike almost all other kinds of western art music, it is a process, rather than a form.

I am a concert pianist who specializes in performing this kind of music, and I have a doctoral degree in music performance.

So, I'm Doctor Fugue.
