Adam

Did you happen to see the most beautiful girl in the world? I married her!

About Me

I've been playing rock, paper, scissors with the hands of time for many moons, friend. What I've learned is that you must always keep your eyes on your opponent and always obey lighted placards and verbal instructions from your flight attendant. These are things you must do unquestioningly.
One other thing, always be boss.
