Matthew "Mornessar" Murray, and some stuff about Iowa
Iowa is boring. Really boring. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-numbingly boring it is. I mean, you may think having to wait in line1 at the Department of Motor Vehicles is dull, but that's just peanuts to Iowa. Listen...
And so on...
Paraphrasings aside, Iowa, a state in the middle of the USA, is really flat with nothing particularly interesting therein. It has been joked that a person in Minnesota2 could look south and see Missouri3 clearly on a good day. Okay, so that's only been joked by me, but it's still funny and not inaccurate.
As far as I go, having come from here and maintained the better part of my sanity is something of which I'm rather proud.
About Me:
I suppose I should introduce myself, in case anybody's actually interested in knowing more about me. I'm 23 years old, currently unemployed4, and I come from the city of Ottumwa, Iowa5. I was an English major in college, so I do know how to write once in a while.
Hobbies and Interests:
I like to do stuff. I'll try to keep this current if I can remember with the nasty case of Adult ADD I have.
- Cook
- Video Games
- Read
- Rant About Stuff
- Generally know more about stuff than others
Anyway, I'm glad to be here, and look forward to writing many useless entries in the future.
Aside from the black towel in my car, I keep a cream-colored one in my bedroom. 
Thanks for dropping by, and I'd like to offer you some

Hey,look! It's a cool lightsaber!

If you're bored, why not take a trip with the Infinite Improbability Drive? Who knows, you might find something interesting...
If you still haven't gotten the hang of the whole Smiley thing (I.E what smileys can be used and how to use them)7, go have a look at Smileys on the Hub.
If you'd like to help other researchers with their entries, then why not go to the Peer Review and tell people what you think?
If you're here, then it's very likely you are a fan of the works of Douglas Adams (RIP, DNA...). If so, you might be interested in seeing how some of the good people here have made a fun and factual entry on the subject of Towels.
