Get this boy some chickens wings!

About Me

It is a night like any other. A siren screams in the distance. Atop a building stands a lone figure, his cape fluttering like a reed in the wind. His sunglasses reflect the pale moonlight that illuminates the night. It is the Great Cosgrove, master crimefighter and adventurer extraordinaire!Yeah, about me, I hate writing these things. How can you sum up 29 years of life in a paragraph? Enh, my minds too busy wandering to nail down a complete system spec of my being. I will use quotes from people I knew in life. "He is such a nice boy." -Third Grade Teacher. "He is a handsome young man." - 1989 Sunday School Teacher. "He is a slacker!" - Mr. Strickland. "Do you feel lucky, punk?" - Dirty Harry. "All we have to fear, is fear itself!" FDR.Hey, I am a nice guy (so I hear), I live alone, I work on computers for a living, I drive a truck, and I have lived a decent, average life. All I ever wanted was to be loved, now I am, so everything is cool. Carry on my wayward son.I am a dreamer. I was born in the wrong era, I chose the wrong profession, and I usually do not know when to say the right thing until five minutes after the time has past. My mind is never on where I am; the curse of an over active imagination. I always wanted to fly the Millennium Falcon when I grew up. I wanted to be sitting looking at paintings instead of going to school. I would rather wax philosophical than talk about what hip show was on last night.I wish life were a Looney Tune. Then I would get to drop anvils. I always love the Road Runner cartoons. I'm also a bit of a cartoonist. I published a webcomic a while back, but its long been taken down. Perhaps I'll put it back up some day. Or write a book. That is what I have always wanted to do; write a book. Need to get on that.
