In the upper-right corner of my old website, there was a small text box in which I could add a sentence or two describing who and what I am. I took to updating that text whenever the urge struck me; I considered it the soul-equivalent, somehow, of a more generic status update. Below, in reverse chronological order, is the list of things I said in that little box… and I might periodically update it still, should the urge strike me. My hope is that the list, in sum, is an interesting and non-traditional way to get to know me: to give the sort of impression one cannot convey in a bio or resume. Enjoy.
