Bio
In the future, dogs will rule the earth. I was turned into a human and sent back into your time so... uh... um... Listen, it's just a silly name that I found amusing. I'm a guy who was born in Glendale, California, in 1972. I have one son, one wife, two dogs, and a cat. More accurately, they all have me.

I(IFNBOAT)AQ:

Q: Hey, what happened to the "kisses are a better fate than wisdom1" thing?
A: I got bored of it.


Q: Didn't you used to have a LiveJournal under another name?
A: Yes, but I changed it because it was my real name, and it's disconcerting to have a potential employer mention that they've seen your blog.


Q: Did you hear the one about the pig with three legs?
A: Yeah, that was hilarious. ..."not all at once!" Good times.


Q: So what the heck is a "I(IFNBOAT)AQ?"
A: Infrequently (In Fact, Never Before Or After This) Asked Questions.


Q: You probably think you're pretty clever.
A: Yeah. Ain't I somethin'?


Q: Don't you ever get tired of listening to yourself flapping your yap?
A: I sure don't! And I guess neither do you, if you've read this far.

1I used to use a line from my favorite poem by e.e. cummings as the title of my journal. I no longer do, but here is the poem. I truly wish I could believe the last line.

since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for each other: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis
