"Ovalkwiki" is a weird name

It comes from [[@http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2001-02-25%7Cthis drink in the the comic strip][ . It is called "[[Genuine Imitation Ovalkwik|Ovalkwik]." Howard is not the sort of person to let the serendipity of shared syllables go unexploited, so when he needed a name for the Schlock Mercenary Wiki, "Ovalkwiki" was the name that stuck. He's had ovalkwiki.com parked for the better part of five years now, and he STILL thinks it's clever.
