Rocky Mountain Hi!

That's a terrible pun, I know. But I couldn't resist. Welcome to my little corner of the BBC and make yourself at home.

Allow me to introduce myself. I am a resident of Big Sky Country, or as it is more commonly known, Montana. I've been a part, albeit a small one, of h2g2 since September of 2000. In that time I've met some interesting researchers, including His Holiness Archbishop Marv the Grate, the simply divine Archangel Galaxy Babe, wickedly witty Sporkulious Eglon, and the redoubtable ecotype. A good friend of mine IRL is online as well, Montana Redhead. Hot tip: the best source for intelligent conversation with our nicest researchers is Lil's Atelier. Lovely people, all of them, and well worth a visit. Although he's not a hootooer, my little terry cloth friend monkey has a very nice website. Drop by for a cup of cocoa and a haiku or two!

To give you some idea of what sort of individual you're dealing with, The Onion never fails to make me laugh, I listen to the music of Wilco and I enjoy reading the work of T.C. Boyle. I am a passionate supporter of National Public Radio and PBS. Both are among the few outlets Americans have for intelligent programming and news reporting. Next time pledge week rolls around for either in your area, rather than turning the channel (I know those Lawrence Welk 30th Anniversary Specials can be frightening) please consider a donation. I'm also a fan of the Philadelphia Flyers, but don't hold that against me. I'm well aware they choke in the Stanley Cup Playoffs every year so you needn't rub it in.
