About Me

"But if I ran the zoo, Said young Gerald McGrew, "I'd make a few changes. That's just what I'd do..." So instead of ranting and raving about a world gone mad, i just dream about running the world my way...its a close second to the real thing and often proves to be better. besides that little blurb, this little hot box of information could never encompass any information that could perfectly demonstrate or explain my madness. As the old saying goes, "the difference between insanity and genius is success". there is still hope for my success, though it be a slim one.
