Ned Kelly was an Australian Bushranger (Outlaw). Ned Kelly, Ted Smelly. I am not an Outlaw but I dislike the same establishment as Ned.

Little more than a decade ago, my wife bought a laptop. An impulse decision. She thought it'd be a neat thing for me to do during chemo. My hair started falling out just after the second two-week round, so I shaved my head bald. Sometime after the third round, she picked up the game Civilization III*. I wanted a name incorporating my new baldness. Germans tend to stick an article in front of someone's name under certain circumstances, and I always found it funny how my german friends would refer to me as "der Don" in conversations because Ivana Trump sounded so weird when she talked about "the Donald" ("What a clown, that guy!" I thought at the time.) The word Don actually means something in spanish and italian, so...
I was bald, my name is Don, I'm attempting to build a roman city... Baldy the Don? No, too silly. Baldo the Don? I like that. "Baldo" also has a sort of nordic god flavor. Oh, Civ3* doesn't like spaces in names? Baldo_the_Don it is, then!
I never did get the hang of Civ3*. My wife was amazing at it, though. She made it through something like 14 out of 16 ranks in one 8-hour marathon session. She built an amazing city for Rome that day. She decided gaming was too addictive for her taste after that and quit two ranks below Caesar. She hasn't played anything since. It's a shame, really.
"It's a shame, really." That's something I think a lot these days.
*Not Civilization III. Caesar III. I'm a 50 year old headbanger, these little amnesiac glitches happen.

LoneWolf is what I went by on the radio when I drove a truck over the road.

I originally started gaming under the tag Rocketman. One of my coworkers commented that I ran like I had a rocket up my arse so I became known as work as rocketman. My name got shortened to Rock as I joined clans and had to add tags.
We used to server raid all the time under aliases and one of my clan mates liked a song by a band called BOBAFLEX. I had one of my best games ever under the alias BOBAFLEX and started to get known as BOBAFLEX. Eventually it stuck and became my permanent tag.

There is an Ian Dury record that mentions "Felonious Monk".
The man is real and he's a jazz musician.
I just thought it was a cool name.
At the time I was playing as,,," a diseased rat". I was always getting shot and seemed to me that no one cared if a diseased rat was killed.
I later changed it to Felonious Rat.
