I am a carbon-based life-form on the North American landmass. I do not argue with dragons, for I know that I am crunchy and taste good with ketchup. :)
Seriously, though, I live in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, and work both as a freelance writer for the local paper every so often (the Palos Verdes Peninsula News) as well as as a computer tech at a dot-com firm in Los Angeles. In my off hours, I like nothing better than to curl up with a good book. I usually have at least three going at once, and juggle between them. (I try not to go too high in number though, or the different books get jumbled -- once, for three days, I was convinced that Athos, Porthos and Aramis had fought Hitler! :P )
As the boxes say below, I have an interest in Old Englishhistory, but in general, I'm interested in most historical areas. It's just the times of Caesar and Alfred the Great that I've gravitated to more than any other.
I've been hit by a vandal recently. This is all I have to say about it: "Never give in — never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense." -- Winston Churchill
and
"You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." --attributed to Winston Churchill.
This user believes it is every citizen's duty to assess every candidate and abstain from voting if none is found fit for office, unless he or she wants to vote anyway.
This user does not wish to speak or hear dumbass, but is resigned to the necessity of at least understanding it in an environment of massive collaboration.
