I guess that is as good a reason as any to explain how I became Sonicfrog.<\/p>\n<p>The genesis of my evolution into amphibiousness started long ago.  Because I used to be able to make this cool frog sound with my voice since 2nd grade, I have ever since always been nick-named \u201cfrog\u201d-something\u2026 \u201cfroggy\u201d, \u201cfroggymike\u201d \u201cribbit-frog\u201d, Pee-Wee Ribbit Frog.. whatever. It never left me. In 1992, right out of college, I started, then destroyed, my own tee shirt company called \u201cFrogonit\u201d! Years latter, I started my current business \u201cFrog\u2019s Pool Service and Spa Repair\u201d and have been in operation for 11 years. My bass guitar cabinet has one of my \u201cFrogonit\u201d designs painted on it, and my current business logo is another former tee-shirt design. My friends used to differentiate me from other friends named Mike by dubbing me \u201cFroggymike\u201d. In the early 2000?s, when acquiring internet domain names was all the rage, I acquired a few. Sonicfrog.net is the one I used most often. On the net, I was froggymike for a long time. Then when I decided to start my blog  I (semi)officially became Sonicfrog.<\/p>\n<p>If someone wants to find out my name, it\u2019s not hard to do and I don\u2019t have any problems with anyone knowing my name\u2026 It\u2019s just more fun this way!!!<\/p>\n<p>PS.  I&#8217;ve been blogging for six year, and only NOW do I get around to explaining that?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"padding-bottom:20px; padding-top:10px;\" class=\"hupso-share-buttons\"><!-- Hupso Share Buttons - https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/ --><a class=\"hupso_toolbar\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hupso.com\/share\/\"><img src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/buttons\/share-medium.png\" style=\"border:0px; padding-top: 5px; float:left;\" alt=\"Share Button\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var hupso_services_t=new Array(\"Twitter\",\"Facebook\",\"Google Plus\",\"Pinterest\",\"Linkedin\",\"StumbleUpon\",\"Digg\",\"Reddit\",\"Bebo\",\"Delicious\");var hupso_background_t=\"#EAF4FF\";var hupso_border_t=\"#66CCFF\";var hupso_toolbar_size_t=\"medium\";var hupso_image_folder_url = \"\";var hupso_url_t=\"\";var hupso_title_t=\"Why%20Am%20I%20Sonicfrog%3F\";<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/static.hupso.com\/share\/js\/share_toolbar.js\"><\/script><!-- Hupso Share Buttons --><\/div><p>Over at What&#8217;s Up With That, one of the guest contributors is running a little poll on why you either do or don&#8217;t post anonymously.
