About Me

Visit Me Here

I wish I could honestly tell you that I'm a world renowned something or other, but unfortunately that's not the case. I like to think that I have the potential for greatness, but in all honesty, Im never going to achieve it. 'Greatness' is simply too much work...and for what? A statue made in your likeness long after you're dead? Maybe a bridge or airport named after you...at least until someone better comes along and then it gets renamed after them? No, in all truth, I'm destined for ordinariness.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who will lend me money.
