: About Me

I know too much. I also talk too much. Now I know what all those freaks look like and what kind of games they play. I'll pick my own charities and causes, thank you. I'm not American, and you shouldn't be so convinced that you are either.

My first job ...

is living.

My best moment ...

is inevitable.

My inspiration ...

Never mind. Just bugger off while you can.
