The story of how I took the name Mr Willoby.

It all started a long time ago in a land far away… This was back in ‘95 when I was 14 years old and really into a band called Primus. We had had AOL at my house for a little while and I had a dumb screenname based on another Primus song called “Southbound Pachyderm,” but it had numbers after it and didn’t make any sense. I thought one day, there are so many Primus songs about characters, I really should find something related to one of them. There is a little ditty on Frizzle Fry called “Sathington Willoby.” The name Sathington was taken and I was disappointed and so may have been Willoby, but I just decided on the screenname Mr Willoby. It wasn’t taken and it didn’t have numbers after it, perfect. I primarily use the name for bootleg trading now, but it’s also my AIM screenname. I’ve had it for so long, I would feel weird identifying myself as anything else. There you have it. Stop asking…

We are gathered here
Today in these majestic
Halls of old to honor
A man they call
Sathington Willoby
There’s a joke or two, A pun or three
I feel that must be
Told then I go on to
Speak of Sathington Willoby
Sathington Willoby
The legislator that
Penned us up a bill
That banned the use
Of certain things like this and that
