Hmm, no, not that I can see.  That's the only entry with my username in it.

Are you a member of the "wheel" group?  (You are added to this group
when you check the "Administrator" checkbox on the user account setup
screen that appears on the first reboot after installation.)  Check
with the `groups` command.

If so, Fedora's default sudoers enables sudo for the wheel group (look
for a line starting with %wheel).  Try commenting out this line.

Yes I'm a member of the wheel group. And yes, editing that line with NOPASSWD works. However, that doesn't fix my problem with just my username. I can live with using the group for that, but this problem is bugging me all to hell.
