Will the real Tone Parsons please stand up?

I’ve been having a problem recently… there’s another Tone Parsons in town. Every place I go, I have issues. He’s replacing my information with his own.

A few weeks ago, I pre-ordered a few copies of Battlefield 2142 and his information (address and phone number) had overwritten mine in their database (they fixed it). Today, I dropped my car off at the shop and sure enough… the other Tone Parsons had been there too.

WTF!?!

Here’s what I know about the other Tone Parsons so far:

He plays computer games
He gets his car worked on at the same place I do
He doesn’t pay his power bill (that was fun getting straightened out)
He’s younger than I am
He’s black (I’m white)

Today though, I got his phone number. I’m thinking the two of us need to get together over a beer and discuss who own’s the name. Since I’m older (I know this for a fact… I ran into someone who went to high school with him… and they’re about 15 years younger than I am), I feel that the name should belong to me.

So here we go… The name Tone Parsons © by me, 1966 - 2006. All rights reserved.

Yeah, good luck with that

Although it would be funny to have a beer with him. Odd that he even spells it the same way.

I have the same problem in the virtual sphere. I wanted my name as a domain and it turns out there's a Michael Bird working as a photographyer in the UK. That he seems to favor lurid shots of men does not bother me nearly as much as the fact that he also works as a commercial photographer.

There's a Shawn Mcbride in Spokane.

He deals meth.

I had heard of him several times. The most recent was from a day labor who we hired to unload a truck. He was an ex-methhead trying to get his life right.

He was... suprised to find out that I was Shawn. The other Shawn was his dealer.

Never heard of another Colin Madden, thankfully.
