Bio
Addled spew of a classical liberal pacifist freethinker born and raised in the south. A "never lived up to his potential" student who is now a high school teacher. A limited-in-stature skinny-as-a-rail nerd-o of 25 years. Of English/Welsh?/Cherokee?/African/dubious heritage. Massive sideburns (mutton or otherwise) are a man's best friend. No shaving here. Don't expect Billy Collins. Think of C.D. Wright after Billy Collins donated a smidgeon of his life-force to her. Then, of course, think of a guy. I use dashes and ellipsis...a lot - a lot. Oh, and the name... "Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people." ~ Carl Sagan
