I’ve read many blogs where the author of the blog tries to stay anonymous for various reasons. I don’t really care if you know who I am. I get a kick out of my friends making comments on my posts and teasing me about my silly blog.

However, not everyone in my family is as forthcoming with their identity. My wife is adamant that she keep her identity a secret although I’m pretty sure the only people reading this blog know exactly who she is.

I don’t want anyone to feel uncomfortable when I tell stories about them on the The Simple Farm so I have and will continue to give code names to my friends and acquaintances.

Here is a list of already mentioned comrades and colleagues. If you want to change your name or if you’re not listed and want to be listed let me know.
