You know, I really appreciate the plugs you guys gave me in the last two issues, but one thing annoys me: Your insistence on putting my name in quotation marks. My friends call me Jake. My co-workers call me Jake. My wife calls me sweetie, but knows my name is Jake. I’m not hiding behind a pseudonym on this blog. The left side of every page of this site say “UtterlyBoring.com is produced by Jake Ortman … “. The whois record for UtterlyBoring.com shows Jake Ortman as the admin and technical contact for the domain with orty.com, my very much side business, listed as the registrant (and you can check with the state to see my name registered on that as well).
So if anybody is here from links in The Source and was wondering about the quotes, well there you go: Jake is my name, don’t wear it out.

OK, so maybe they know me better than I thought … 😉
Wow, imagine the “Source” getting something wrong. Like I always tell people, consider the “Source.” (a wanna be rag at best)
Sheesh, “Jake”, don’t be so edgy!
I don’t know about you, but it seems like “The Eye” is using UB posts as a resource for easy stories Jake…
would you like me to take up the issue with “the venerable Aaron Switzer” the next time I see him?
Yeah, the quotes around your name raised my eyebrow when I read it.
