Name Change?

Occasionally things happen in social situations that you don't traditionally expect to happen. Usually these kinds of events would involve an unsavory family member, but in this rare case, it was actually the internet that surprised me the most.

One of those things was the adoption of the name "The Silver Onion". Created from people who misread my proper screenname, "Silivrenion," (latin for the Silver Son), The Silver Onion was coined as an Engrish alternative. Used jokingly in several situations, I decided it would be more than appropriate to adopt it as the title for this column. Hopefully we won't make you cry too much...
