I began using WT Sharpe for all my postings when I first decided to add my own page ( www.wtsharpe.com) to the WWW and discovered just how many other “Tom Sharpes” are out there. There are writers, a comedian, one musician who won the John Lennon Songwriting competition, and many more. I figured with WT Sharpe, I would be somewhat unique. Lately I’ve discovered there’s a young guitarist who posts his videos under that name at YouTube. That’s probably his name, as it is mine, and I wouldn’t mind – except for the Confederate Flag that seems to appear in all his videos.
Trust me, folks – that ain’t me! |
Yep and I've been doing business on the internet for almost 15 years now.
The same things that can happen in real life can happen here on the internet.
