CURRENT MISSION

Nolite te bastardes carborundorum

PHILOSOPHY

It's very simple: I live so that I don't regret. As a result, I'm constantly challenging myself and whatever notions I hold (and what notions people hold about me). I usually do things the hard way. I almost always take the road less traveled. Sometimes I pay for it, but mostly, I gain from it.
