I am a polymathic autodidact and a skeptical smartass. I love bad jokes, good Scotch, and great music. I am intensely curious, and logical to a fault. I carry an emergency book, for when boredom strikes. I am an Honors student and a Sunday school teacher. I curse like a sailor. Those things are not as contradictory as they seem. :)

““Well yeah but it’s not for everyone,”
