Why Big Nutter? – Introduction

Quite often for internet aliases, people will choose their name to fit themselves. Big Nutter is no Exception. If you where to ask me, I’d reply with one of these two explanations. Both feature writing, Blogging, Podcasting and Dyslexia.

“I’m Dyslexic, who’s got speech problems, who is Writing, Blogging and Podcasting! It’s sounds like a Nutter to me.” – Mike Sharpe, Dec 2008, revised version of similar 2001 quote. (Blogging and Podcasting wasn't well known in 2001)

This is one that I’ll quote in podcasts like Erk Pod. (Ding!) It is true, but it is not the full story. This is one reason why I called myself Nutter. Since Nutter is mainly used in Great Britain and New Zealand, here is the meaning:

nutter

Noun

Brit & NZ slang an insane person

I think people are now asking why I did I call myself insane, but there is a story behind why I chose that name.

In the Beginning

Genesis 1 (KJV)

 1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

 2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

 3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
