About Me

I was born in a trash heap and emerged with a stench that drove all but those with no sense of smell away. This left me with very little company, so I made friends out of various objects from the heap. Their names were Hrothgar1, Hrothgar2, Hrothgar3, and Hrothgar7. We all got along fairly well, so I agreed to write songs documenting their lives on a guitar that I had found. After the songs were completed, I left them to tell their stories to the world, vowing that I would one day come back to visit.
