About Me

I'm Brian. I am apathetic about the continuation of the human species. Take that how you will. I think we evolved from monkeys and that was a big mistake. I'm alright with being unimpressive."If I were a younger man, I would write a history of human stupidity; and I would climb to the top of Mount McCabe and lie down on my back with my history for a pillow; and I would take from the ground some of the blue-white poison that makes statues of men; and I would make a statue of myself, lying on my back, grinning horribly, and thumbing my nose at You Know Who."
