Biography
Before we get into personalities, here's my philosophy on life. I've always depended upon the kindness of strangers because as long as you don't know their names or where they live, you never have to spend money on thank you notes or gifts.
My story? Not much to tell, really.
When I was born, my parents placed me in a small wooden boat and pushed me out into the center of the Pulaski Skyway where I was rescued and ultimately raised by a pair of possums. Sadly, they died when I was very young. At least I think they died.
From there I joined the Merchant Marines and was the only toddler in World War II to sink a Japanese battleship while being burped.
When I returned to the States, I got a job at Gimbels Department Store and have been there ever since even though they went out of business in 1986. I have always valued loyalty over money and if that's wrong, talk to my wife. You'd get along famously.

- I just found a book I literally could not put down. The glue from the spine leaked through the cover and the damned thing fused to my hand.
- The White Light People See When They Die http://t.co/E7nEYDkI1V via @wordpressdotcom It's real.
- North Korea should fire their social networking guy. I haven't heard a word about them dropping a bomb on anyone for at least a month now.
- @dannyzuker Did the same thing with a corn beef # hashtag joke which was awful but hit send for my own amusement... sad, really.
