So I says to myself, I
says, "Self! If visitors made it here, they're
probably trying to figure out why in the world I would
make my email address (and website)
@farmerdonkey.com. Better tell 'em the story."
One of my Brothers from another mother owns a
farm. In the past, I helped him quite a bit, and
as with most farms, we had some colorful nicknames for
each other.
We started calling each other Jacka$$. (Why
Jacka$$? Well, if you don't already know, you
probably aren't ever gonna know.) Anyway,
Jacka$$ soon became "Farmer Jacka$$"...
...then his daughter decided that every time we said a
"bad word", we needed to pay her a quarter. She
soon realized just how many "bad words" we said, so
the price went up to a buck a piece... and that added
up real fast. I negotiated with her to have
unlimited "bad words" for $20 bucks a month... until
she realized that she was getting the wrong end of
that deal.
"Farmer Jacka$$" just got way too expensive... and to
save our wallets, "Farmer Jacka$$" became "Farmer
Donkey". And the rest is history.
