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.

Its easy: Changing your name to a symbol would straighten this all out.
Well, what in the hell is this other guy thinking?? EVERYONE knows that you are the one, the only, the original!
That all sounds like too damned much coincidence. Until you get all the facts you should approach the situation as tho you are the victim of identity theft. Run a credit report on yourself as the first step and then find out where the guy lives and works. If all else fails, go back to being “pimpdaddy”.
