a summer's tale

About Me

you and i are probably more or less identical... i'd bet the corvette (the imaginary one) that we're both eukaryotes, and animals at that, probably bilateria, most likely deuterostomia, chordata (a great chance), craniata (a good chance), doubtlessly vertebrates, assuredly gnathostomata, i'd venture sarcopterygii, terrestrial vertebrates surely, and presumptively tetrapods, and (to boot) positively reptiliomorpha, amniotes beyond question, synapsids for shizzle, therapsids for tizzle, mammals for mizzle, eutheria i dare suspect, conceivably primates, catarrhini there is no hesitation, surely truly hominidae, possibly homo, and, just a shot in the dusk here... homo sapiens. furthermore, it is quite plausible that we're both homo sapiens sapien. Rosencrantz et al can flip a coin whether you, like me, were built fractionally from a Y chromosome.

My Interests

laughing, fish biscuits, linguistic dexterity, crisp air, shakespeare in the park, spooning, montana, Marlon Brando, evolutionary biology, fiddling, sitting on stumps, calms before storms, slumber, Prague, Sweden ...................................MY DISLIKES are largely limited to injustice, and the smell of that green tea charlie drinks.
