Actually my name is Richard, short for that is, Rick and everyone always called me Rick. I decided when I was 4 years old that since there is no 'K' in Richard I would not use it to spell 'Rick' so I adopted 'Ric' as my name. So there is the story of why I spell it that way. I wish I could have copyrighted it, now lots of people spell it that way, influenced solely by me, I am the origional inventor of this way of spelling my name, damn theives. I could not think of anything better when I origionally signed up at N'dose before coming to GT all those years ago.
We get a lot of "Rich" and "Dicks" shortened from Richard here in the States. I wonder if the Rick thing is more common in Europe because I haven't heard of that much over here.

Haha oh man I remember when Weezer was good...middle school. Those were the days.
