Like I said, don't know what Franny's username was (maybe it was just "Franny"?), but from all the stories I've heard, he sounds like a real idiot. The kind of idiot that pisses people off by being an idiot.
FF also pisses people off, but not by being an idiot. So I don't think they're the same person. But FF is definitely the late Nick M and Luke L. I'm not sure about I Like Woodies. Then there was another character that existed at the same time as I Like Woodies; the two of them were constantly at each others' throats. I'm pretty sure FF was each of them, just having fun on line. Sort of thought he was going through a schizo phase actually. Man, what was that other username? I think it had "duck" in it, and maybe some sexual innuendo? The two characters were kind of like a shoulder angel / shoulder devil pair. One actually constantly said "Praise Jesus" out of context. My favorite part about the minnesotawaterfowler days was trying to guess which new user was actually Nick M returning after a hiatus or getting booted. He always came back subtly at first, but then couldn't help himself and returned to his obvious ways within a couple weeks.
I've been on this site too long. The entertainment has been great at times though.
By the way, Stute, you won't catch me dead on Forest Lake, or any other metro lake. You must confuse me with someone else. i hope that person is cool.
