Bio: I'm a bootlegger, or so the novel calls me. Rich. Sneaky. Spiritually empty. Even dead at the hands of a gunman! This is not good, is it? Here's the truth: Middle aged guy in Ohio. Happy most days. I have MS a little. I have more to think about than that, though. I hang out in the Forums a lot. You should, too! Great fun over there...
Me loves me trivia and me loves this site best of the rest!
Hobbies: Reading and Writing (but I draw the line at Arithmetic - keep your numbers, if it's all the same). Big movie fan!
