About Me

My name is Ja. Yes, just two letters; 'j-a'.
I am like your favorite movies, rolled into a bundle -- and like most bundles, I'm tall and skinny. Comedy, drama, action, suspense...I've got it all. Even the occasional bit of slapstick.
I'm like all of your favorite celebrities rolled into one, too. Save for the fact I've only been in one movie, don't have the fame, dashing good looks, press coverage, or money. But on four occasions I've had the stalkers!
I'm like all your favorite foods, as well. But not all mixed together, because that wouldn't taste that great.
Really? I'm pretty much an 'everyman'. I'm a fun person, but I'm just that -- a person. I can hold conversations; intelligent or goofy. I know many tidbits of information on various topics, and I even have a few small, fairly useless skills that occasionally show themselves.
Want to know more of what I've got? Then do something about it!
