Imperfect Match

My handle is one I've used for many years. Part of the reason I chose it was its relative obscurity. Years later, it is still fairly unique. I was able to sign into Blogger.com and Xanga with it. A Google stalk search of "QwertyPi" returns 15 returns; all but two of them refer to me.

One of these results is a match.com profile of a 28-year old from Portsmouth, NH with a picture of a girl next to it. This might explain why a little while ago I got a increase of random IMs. One of them even said they saw my profile from match.com. I chose then not to talk to any of them. But it's nice to know the origin of those messages.
