When someone wants my full name,
I use M. Robert Martin.
It's even on my driver's license.

Funny story:

My wife didn't know my first name
until a few weeks before our wedding.

When we change our story
we change our selves.

I'm here with Tartan Solutions and they paid for my trip
but that doesn't mean they agree with anything I say.
