: About Me

Don't let the picture fool you. I'm about as non-serious about myself as they come. They say, The more you learn, the less you know, and I'm certainly discovering that for myself. But that doesn't dampen my rampant desire to read. I love reading and learning about almost anything, especially science, human behavior, our psychology, government, legal system, and all the other things that affect our daily lives, both positively and negatively.

I also LOVE whacked-out humor, and if I ever met Dave Barry, I would probably die, then be resuscitated by him, then die again from the thrill of being resuscitated by Dave Barry... ;)

I also enjoy my children, my wife, and my overweight cat, whose undying devotion (she likes to lay by my feet underneath my computer desk) is no doubt due to the fact that I feed her, or because she considers me her slave. One of the two.

And more than anything, I love to write. I have to write. If I try and stay away from it, I will inevitably awaken in the middle of the night sleep-writing. Well, not really, but that would be pretty cool. If I eventually come up with something that people consider reasonably good, then that will be reward enough.

That, and a book deal... 8)

My passion is ...

my children, my wife, and my cat.

I know too much about ...

myself. I would prefer to know more about everybody else!

My parents always told me ...

I could go far, depending upon the force used in the foot that kicked me in the...

My childhood ambition ...

My favorite memory ...

playing in the most imaginative public park ever, Robinson Crusoe's Isle.

Why I write ...

I love a beautiful crafted sentence. I am awed by them.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Depending on my state of mind, just about anything.

My first job ...

Framing art when I was 14.

My best moment ...

Impersonating Steve Martin in front of thousands of my fellow college students... for real!

My inspiration ...

my middle son, who will probably never write more than simple sentences, but who is nonetheless more sublime, fascinating, and beautiful than anyone I could ever meet.

Entertainment > Movie Genres Zombie movies: Which are more effective, fast zombies or slow zombies?

7 of 37

After giving the topic of this debate a great deal of thought, at least 5 minutes, I came to the conclusion that slow moving zombies are indeed more effective because fast moving zombies are undoubtedly responsible for our current global economic crisis. Wait a second... I'm confusing topics again! Please allow me to start over. Slow moving zombies ARE more effective than fast moving zombies. I know this because of my own wealth of experience with the Zombie Queen, otherwise known as "My Wife when she first gets up in the morning". Nothing will spur you to hastily escape the Eminent Zombie...
