Dennette is the name my mother gave me (my full name is Dennette Arthur Harrod, Jr.), and the screen name I most commonly use on the Internet, although back in the 1970s and 1980s I was known as The Wiz .[1] In 1984 I embraced Islam and took the name Abu Hurairah (Father of Kitten).[2]
I have been active on the Internet since my first ARPANET E-mail account at Xerox in 1976. I have purchased Life Memberships in the following organizations:
- Mensa [3]
- National Eagle Scout Association
- National Rifle Association
- United States Chess Federation
For more information about me, just Google "Dennette".[4]
You might say that I'm one of the most famous people about whom you've never heard ... "I'm world famous in Japan" :-)
I'm a recovering suicide survivor (from the age of 15), and for the past quarter century, my Motivational Imperative has been:
NECE SINE PECUNIA.
— Die broke.
