JRA
Contents
Origin of name
Nobody really knows what his screenname is supposed to mean. Perhaps it is an exclamation of rage screamed into the air from a woman he widowed. It could be a calling card in the form of a branding iron marking (usually to ignorant conservatives who think fetuses are more important than women). It could be an attempt to make up a Wu-Tang Clan moniker. Or it could just be his initials.
Controversy
Despite his happy-go-lucky and quirky nature, JRA is reviled in the forums for opinions and facts that others would find repulsive. One such fact is that he has never played a single Final Fantasy game or Chrono Trigger, and feels no reason to do so until his future wives Cytherea and Lily Thai nag him into doing so. He also is completely burnt out on Guns N Roses, and doesn't comprehend a) why anyone gives a damn at this point when Chinese Democracy is coming out, and b) how anyone can continue to put up with Axl Rose's shit. Axl Rose needs an ass kicking of Rodney King proportions by Boy George and the guys from Rosenshontz.
Music & Journalism
JRA would jump at the chance to write for a music magazine if most of the opinions in the music world weren't bought already. While his knowledge of music isn't as vast as say, Eddie Trunk's, he is quite passionate about it. He likes to spend time drumming up musical playlists, concert setlists, or just drumming in general (despite the fact that he sold his drumset about a year ago, he can't seem to resist the urge to air drum to most forms of music, and unfortunately that does on occasion include Eurodisco). Doesn't seem to care about Led Zeppelin's "plagirism" controversy, thinks such detractors can blow him. Wonders if "pop" music can be classified by anything other than high record sales.
His favorite band use to be Iron Maiden, until they starting fucking up by releasing that repetitive nonsense A Matter Of Life & Death, and claiming it was the best thing ever, not to mention being lazy in their live setlist. But at least they don't downtune from their albums in an attempt to sound "heavier" or make up for aging voices.

A Word of Advice
Just because you're attracted to females does not mean you will pass a College level "Women's Studies" Class. Ask Redman.
