Really? This is what you got today Art? Come on man...
I don't know, if anything, a first name is more formal. My buddies refer to me as my last name, as do most guys, if not a nickname. First names are much more formal, thus, likely someone we don't know as well. But either way, who gives a sh!t how someone refers to someone on a message board. Clearly you aren't above talking about high school and college kids on an anonymous message board so don't act like such a jerk so often.
"Jon" (Art, is it OK that I refer to him as such?) I appreciate your updates on both Joe and Andre.
