So here is the story about my screen name: When I was in my teens, my first job was to work in a storagehouse of pharmaceuticals; so when a pharmacy sent an order for some medicine, we had to look it up and get it from this huge depot and package and send it to them. One of my coworkers, who was really a strange guy (and who had the worst-smelling feet ever), figured out that i was playing drums and kept on telling me that he was a “musician” too and that some of his ideas for songs and melodies he used to compose were in fact stolen from him when he presented them at auditions, and released without his acknowledgement by some “major music labels”; however, he refused to tell me who in the music industry he was refering to or which songs were stolen. Then, he told me about this mentor who taught him to sing, write songs and everything about rythm. He told me that he was “an extremely wise old guy of African descent”, and his name was Old Akakaraka. That name kinda stuck. So I shamelessly copied it and used it as my screen name.
I am familiar with his work and it is fantastic. That sounds like a really strange job.
Middle name + year I was born

No wonder you could “retire” so early. You have the power of two.
2 heads - but only half a brain between them…
to clarify, does each head have both lobes at half power or one lobe each?
one side’s callable and the other side’s putable - so there’s a whole lotta convexity goin’ on…
I registered two days before my first of two attempts at LI - I knew I was going to fail so I was drinking instead of studying… and just happened to be sipping a glass of fine wine.
