I was born. I don't think I liked it very much: I went from being quite warm to very cold in just a few moments. And, really, who likes that?

I went to school. They told me I could be anything I wanted. They lied. Bastards.

I went to college, because that's what they told me to do. 'Nova was fun. I drank a lot and smoked a lot of pot. I didn't graduate, because I drank a lot and smoked a lot of pot. The fun thing is never the right thing. That's what I learned in college. That, and my social security number.

Thirty years later, here I am. I'd like to go back to being quite warm.

I've only been actively engaged on Wikipedia since around January 2006. I've recently (June 2006) begun working with WikiProject Musical Theatre. I guess you could say I spearheaded it: there was a dormant project and I sent out a few messages and got it up and viable. There is definitely a need for it. I'm looking forward to collaborating with several good editors out there.

I have been known to boogie.
My WikiPhilosophy
Okay. Okay. Okay. After months and months of soul-searching, introspection, and a misguided but well-intended experiment with a perm (it was fun to feel like Mr. Kot-TER...), I've come to the lengthy and painful conclusion that I am a deletionist. In this beautiful socio-experiment called Wikipedia, it seems that 95% of the editors on here just want to contribute. We're called "editors" for a reason — with so many people willing to add excruciating minutiae to every article in sight, someone has to come along with a blue pencil and get rid of the effluvium. I get a little woozy when I edit an article and check the history to see a decrease in the neighborhood of 10,000 bytes without losing any information necessary to the casual reader. I'll admit, at times I can be a little overzealous, and, for that, I apologize. However, cut I shall and with vigor! Beware my blue pencil!
Places I've Been

Flag of the Netherlands Amsterdam, The Netherlands

The Happiest Place on Earth

Flag of Greece Athens, Greece

Mar-bla Tem-plas -- pretty, old, kinda dirty

Flag of Maryland Baltimore, Maryland

I was there three times in one April several years ago. It's quite a hick town.

Flag of Massachusetts Boston, Massachusetts

I like Boston. Every bar really feels like Cheers.

Flag of Belgium Brussels, Belgium

Very baroque. And you know what they say, if it ain't baroque, you must be in Brussels.

Flag of Germany Dachau, Germany

Really, there are no words.

Flag of Germany Dinkelsbühl, Germany

Sa-weet town in Bavaria

Flag of Pennsylvania Hershey, Pennsylvania

The whole town smells like chocolate.

Flag of Pennsylvania Lancaster, Pennsylvania

There's nothing at all fun about Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

Flag of Switzerland Lucerne, Switzerland

Don't really remember it. I guess that means I'm neutral.

Flag of Italy Milan, Italy

Beautiful city

Flag of Canada Montreal, Canada

Probably the most fun I've had in North America.

Flag of the Bahamas Nassau, The Bahamas

Fun times, fun times. But, on the whole, I dislike tropical destinations.

The greatest city on Earth. Period.

Flag of CanadaFlag of New York Niagara Falls, Canada/New York

Eh. Beyond the Falls it's really just a honeymoon nightmare.

Theme parks out the ass.

Flag of France Paris, France

Dirty, mean, smelly, ugly -- wouldn't go back if you paid me

Flag of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Eh. It has it's ups and downs, but I like it. Most of it, anyway.

Flag of France Pont-à-Mousson, France

Lovely little town; stayed in a converted abbey, there.

Flag of Austria Salzberg, Austria

Very music-y

Flag of Utah Salt Lake City, Utah

Very nice city: clean, the people are nice. But not what you'd call a "party town".

Flag of the Netherlands Sellingen, The Netherlands

Had a homestay there, small town. Nice.

Flag of Canada Toronto, Canada

Great town.

Flag of Italy Venice, Italy

Perhaps the most beautiful city on the planet.

Flag of Washington, D.C. Washington, D.C.

Again, not exactly what you'd call a "party town".

I would always love more!

They're childish and stupid, but then, so is high school.

(No, I'm not in high school. Just quoting a wise, wise man and a righteous dude.)
