There was a major UFO landing (and subsequent cover-up) at Ellsworth Air Force Base, in South Dakota, in August of 1977. I was living on Ellsworth during this time. I was six years old. This is, as near as I can tell, the closest I have ever been to being abducted by extraterrestrial life-- though, of course, my memories of those bygone years are a bit fuzzy and the possibility that I was, in fact, abducted cannot be ruled out entirely.
I was a really cute kid.
The best place to find out who I am is talk.bizarre . Yeah, the newsgroup. Yeah, THAT newsgroup, the one that seems like it's a lot of noise and wasted bandwidth. That is one of the places I live. There are two things to do there: Write things, and read things written by other people who also live there.
What I mostly do when not reading talk.bizarre or posting to it is write and compose. Sometimes I write about my life and I'm going through my notebooks to catalog the many dreams I have recorded, but usually I write fiction and the stuff I post to talk.bizarre. Some of my music might eventually hit the net via IUMA, but that is still somewhat distant. Content yourself with my words for now; the sounds will come later.
My blob quotient is 16.54. To calculate your own BQ, take your mass in kilograms and divide it by the square of your height in meters. Yes, I am appallingly thin, now that you mention it.
Like cats? Make sure you know how to take care of yours. (75K)
You can tour some of your solar system's better neighborhoods.
And, for those of you just love the net because it's crammed full of pictures to look at, you can scope out a fast car (28K), Cindy Crawford (25K), a nifty ray-traced room (84K), and a personal hero of mine, Howard Philips Lovecraft (47K). Never has so much bandwidth been so wasted by so many for so little.
