Eckhouse: A Philosophical Exploration of the Pen Name That Explores the Mysterious Disappearance of Leon (I Mean Noel)

There once was a man who was me. This man was born, and grew up into a person who looks amazingly similar to James Eckhouse, the man who played Mr. Walsh on Beverly Hills 90210. This resemblance would lead to the nickname of “Jim Walsh” in late college, his early twenties, and so forth into his early thirties. The prevalence of this nickname has dwindled, however, as this man has systematically replaced his old friends with newer ones.

This man began using Eckhouse as an online nom of plume several years ago, in a meager effort to diversify away from the same user name and password combinations that he has used since getting his first ATM card in junior high. Those combinations were relatively easy to guess for those who knew him well, as they always involved some sort of (glub) paired with (blub) of his favorite (glub)...

And that, as they say, is that.

Love,
E. Suoh Kce
