How'd you select your username?

I knew this would be trouble.

I could have just as easily picked a name out of my high school French textbook, but I just HAD to pick that one!

That's right! I don't actually go to work at City Hall every day... it's all a ruse! And THAT'S why I encourage you so much to work late, too!

Must also be why Margaret doesn't look like either one of us, right?

Hello, Nurse!

My nickname "Chile" comes from the little lunch counter restaurant I worked at in college. From about 1976 - 1983, Chile Franks was a chili joint a block away from the Albany State dorms, whose cafeterias were world-renowned for inedible food presented in a cold, miserable setting. Chile Franks was run by a former Albany State prof named Frank (hence the name) who had lost his job when his depatrtment was axed, and the home-made food he and his daughters (Chile Janet and Chile Alicia) served was a cheap, welcome alternative to the cafeterias. And I don't know why he insisted on spelling it like the country and not the food, but that's the way it was. I worked there for 3 semesters and got the name Chile Billy hung on me by the regulars, and it stuck. To this day, my oldest friends simply call me "Chile". Having lived in Mass since 1987, that just completes the name.

Well, after I took a few online surveys, conducted a door to door, consulted a Zogby poll, used some voodoo, performed a few small animal sacrifices, conducted focus groups, hired my own marketing executive, and threw spaghetti at the wall I arrived at...

my first name.

Yeah, I was just as creative as Greg was.

Can I borrow that when you're done? Yowza. She's not too hard to look at, is she?
