Reason Behind the Alias:
My mother grew up in a tiny town in Wyoming called Ten Sleep. The Indians said that spot was ten sleeps from one popular encampment and ten sleeps to another. The Good Guy comes from my favorite spoof Western, Rustlers Rhapsody, starring Tom Berenger. Besides, I wear a white hat.

History of the Persona:
He called himself Ten Sleep in honor of his mother, who was raised in the small Central Wyoming town of Ten Sleep, situated at the base of the Big Horn Mountains. The “Good Guy” handle stuck to him as he helped one distraught citizen after another from the ruthless hand of evil railroad and cattle barons. He never looked for trouble, but trouble always seemed to find him, and when it did, Ten Sleep was always there to help the weak and powerless in their fight against oppression. Being a “Good Guy,” Ten Sleep never drew first and always shot the bad guys in the hand. Ten Sleep traveled alone through most of the West fighting evil, recognizable by his good guy white hat. Somewhere near the turn of the century, Ten Sleep Good Guy just seemed to drift away into the sunset.

Other Hobbies:
Fly fishing, gardening, travel
