Hello and welcome to my user page.
I have been a member of Misplaced Pages since November 30, 2007 (though the records say December 1 because of time zone differences). I am an administrator here on Misplaced Pages, which basically means that I have few extra buttons to push if I need to. It also means that if you need help with something, I can probably provide assistance; so please ask!

About me

I was born and live in New York, United States. My main areas of editing include science and technology, computing, electronics, and video games. When I'm not editing, I enjoy reading topics about history, warfare, military technology, astronomy, science fiction, computing, and most sciences. Other Wikimedia Foundation wikis that I frequent include the Misplaced Pages en español, Commons, Meta, and the Simple English Misplaced Pages. My areas of interest off-wiki include most forms of computer and web programming, electronics and computer hardware, mathematics, and most natural and applied sciences.
As to where I came up with my username: long, boring story...

Things that make me laugh

  • This page and the people who wanted to keep it. Also, the 4 and 10 comments on whether to delete it or not.
  • The way this user was banned.
  • Hillary Clinton's secret alter ego
  • The real winner of the 2000 U.S. Presidential Election
  • This
  • This all-powerful IP user (posted on an administrator's talk page)
  • These edit summaries
  • This warning and the fact that this page is still vandalized more than almost any page on Misplaced Pages.
  • A very frank and concise opinion on a certain NHL team.
  • Charles Manson's mother's problem that caused him to be what he was.
  • The evil side of yo-yos.
  • Eloquent statement of the positive side of vandalism. (yes, this was vandalism)
  • Very subtly named sockpuppet account.
  • *gasp* No way?! , , , , , ,
