About Me

The other haf was born in a gardening hose. At the tender age of 5, he had the bible memorized, and he learned to play the banjo by sharpening oyster shells on the backs of stones and peeling the skin off of infidel rodents... and then eating them... after cooking them of course. One day, while walking his dog Slurpie by the pond, he was carried off by the Platters, who raised him on turpentine, toenail jello, and firewater. He learned to read and write by reading Desert Solitaire. One day, he wandered into a meandering circus, and enjoyed success from a pouch of protein powder. After the gleaming luster of the carnival lost it is Polish organ grinder, the other haf focused on maf, and the national science foundation sprung from a slab of meat in an uncovered jar.
