About Me

Hello, Awesome Friends! I'm really glad that you found me here on the Inter-Web. How's your life been up until this point? Frightening, you say? I completely understand.
I've been out riding the railways for some time, just trying to make my way through life as a hobo looking for nothing more than a song and a handshake. No one really wants to be friends with hobos, though, and I guess I can't blame them. Times have been tough for everyone, what with The War goin' on and The Depression and all. I'm back home now, though, clean-shaven, with a freshly-polished pair of shoes on my feet and a fine comb in my back pocket.
I'm currently working on my Executive Master's Degree in Voodoo Sciences from the University of Haiti-Online. When I finally graduate, you and I and the rest of the Internet should get together to celebrate the occasion, possibly at a breakfast buffet, possibly elsewhere. Only time will tell...
