The name's Edrees (you probably knew that by now). You can call me Edrees, Doh-Doh, Soos, 2soos, Bluetoos, Ed, Edd, Eddy, Edward, Shotgun_Ed, El Cid, or Dardous. Alternatively, you can come up with your own nickname and if I like it, I'll add it to the ever growing list.

I've lived the life of a nomad most of my life. Nearly a quarter of a century later and I still haven't settled down. The plan is to continue that legacy (and curse) on a microcosmic scale and travel in between my travels. Call it "metatraveling".
