The world is a parade of fools and I'm at the front carrying the banner

About Me

I hate writing about myself. What are you supposed to say? No matter what is said you come off sounding conceited. For example, I am an intelligent man that will use my superior intellect to crush the mediocre mind mutants currently walking the earth. I shall conquer and rule with an iron fist. An iron fist and a box full of puppies. Ok I’m not really the mean guy conqueror iron fist type. Truthfully I’m just a writer of words and a painter of pictures that most people will never see. I believe in and look for magic in the world and believe that love and laughter are both infinitely greater when shared. I’ll share the love and laughter if you bring the box of puppies.
