I like the anonymity of my name. A simple Google search turns up a host of interesting individuals with the same moniker.
Among them, a mystery writer, an American outlaw of the 19th century, a Canadian politician, an architect, a composer, and a multitude of other interesting characters.
They accomplished something, as their names are prominently featured when queried.
Then of course there is myself. I don't think my identity registers within the first dozen pages of a Google search. And I'm OK with that. I enjoy living in the shadows.
Why strive for recognition when someone else of the same handle can do it for me?
There are many interesting JW's that have existed. Take this fellow for example. He sacrificed himself at the age of 21 during the Battle of the Bulge.
At 21 I was in a haze of substance induced euphoria.
There's even an award named after a prominent JW. So, as it is, I am content with the other JW's of the world representing with a wealth of commendable and notorious achievements. I'll sit back and bask in their reflective glory.
"The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not romantic personally he is apt to spread discontent among those who are." -H.L. Mencken
