That is the largest question of the day. Some have come and asked me,"MonkeyCashew? Why are you called MonkeyCashew?" The answer; simple. The Dartboard Theory. I had taken sheets of paper and tore them into pieces, each with a random word written on it. When picked at random, MonkeyCashew emerged.

Now, this may seem simple and obscure and a completely uninteresting story to tell, if that name did not explode into something more. A dear friend of mine and co-creator of our up and coming web comic,"Strange Brew," were in the midst of an idea session at one of the most greasy burger joints ever created. This was during our visit of the big Pokemon Anniversary party held at one of the local malls. During lunch, we were deciding what to do with our latest endeavor, that of an online clan. We had plans of websites and personas that would utilize masks to hide our identity. As we began to talk, the idea of these personas took shape into a comic-style. We then came up with the idea of Cashew, a child-mute with spiky hair, baggy clothes and a mask over his face. He never spoke and wore different masks to approach his moods and situations. To be his interpreter was a pet monkey by the name of...well..Monkey, hence MonkeyCashew, another transferrance of my name into the realm of being.

Now, the idea I just laid out to you, was very rough and went through a lot of changes to create what we now know as Strange Brew (which has yet to be released, we have 3 completed issues and more to come..I will be posting some up on both the Nintendo Cult Clan (yes some of it pertains to Nintendo) and the rest in the Gaia art Forums). MonkeyCashew took a life of it's own after a while and has been my name ever since. It embodies the randomness that is me and helps create lots of entertainment to the masses!
