A little about me

Stuff, stuff and other stuff. More interesting stuff and then some serious, heartwarming stuff. Then some stuff that makes us laugh and cry. End of stuff.

A little about my family ancestry.

Although I've done some research, I'm not sure what the exact breakdown is but it goes about like this: 1/8 Finnish, 1/9 German, 1/16 American Indian, 1/19 Chinese, 1/29 Pygmie, 1/252 Hobbit, 1/838 Rodent, 1/9210 Peanut M&M, 1/29321 Wookie, 1/129913 Don Knotts, 1/2 bottle rum, 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract, 2 limes (whole, peeled), 1/2 oz. parmesan cheese. Mix in large pan and bake for 20-25 minutes at 450F, stirring occasionally. Let sit 10 minutes and enjoy. Serves 8 normal sized people or 12 midgets or 16 anorexic supermodels or 32 anorexic supermodel midgets.

A startlingly short bio with a side dish of solipsism

Suddenly, I was born. Shortly afterward, I grew up. One day, I realized that I was the only conscious and sentient entity in existence and the world around me including all the people populating it are extremely believable products of my imagination. As such, they live a life free of troublesome self-contemplation and introspection. That made me sad. Finally, I got happy when it occurred to me how joyful it is to play along with the illusion. Of course, there is no possible reason I should be writing this as you do not exist and cannot be reading it, but like I said... the illusion can be sort of enjoyable.

A little about my photos

When you look at a photo of mine, it is meant to entice you, to tease you, to draw you in and permeate your very existence, make you beg for more and then kick you out and tell you it never wants to see you again but that you can stop by tomorrow morning to pack your stuff.

Favorite gastrointestinal disease

And yes, I'll tell you right up front so I don't get bombarded with emails about it. My favorite gastrointestinal disease would be a toss-up between hepatic hemangioendothelioma and necrotizing enterocolitis. There. Happy?
