==You may edit this page ==
Really, you can!

This is my user page. I like to keep it a certain way. But, the thing is, I trust you. I trust that you'll add something here that makes me smile<!-- TANSTAAFL and DLTBGYD -->, that informs me, or that helps to inform others. If I have things in a certain format, I trust that you will respect that format. Actually, scratch that. Since this page is so simple and ugly, my ultimate dream is that some person who thinks it is fun will come along and make it look as perfect as ] user page. See that link up there: '<span class="plainlinks"></span>'? Go for it. It's a wiki world!! &ndash; Jimbo

Note that quite a few Wikipedians watch my user page and will edit mercilessly or even remove altogether any alterations made. This ''is'' a wiki, after all.

Comments on how this page currently looks should be directed to ].
