What’s the story behind your nickname?

I guess it depends on who you talk to. I’ve had several, along the way. One was “Jed,” a mistake made by my Scoutmaster who got me confused with another guy in the troop. Another was “Og 1,” because I was the oldest of three brothers. And another, less used one was “Pencil,” because I was tall and thin.

But not that thin.
