Fave quote or expression : "There often seems
to be a playfulness to wise people, as if either their equanimity has as its source this
playfulness or the playfulness flows from the equanimity; and they can persuade other
people who are in a state of agitation to calm down and manage a smile." - Edward
Hoagland
Personal biography : I came to be when a
polka-dotted peach blossom fell upon an armadillo's nose, causing her to sneeze. The force
of the magnificent blast knocked her clear into orbit, where she died. Several centuries
later, NASA was launching Apollo Thirteen. Little did they know, the armadillo had a
post-mortem insurance policy against being run over by missions to the moon, and when
Apollo struck her frozen body (in the movie they left this part out) her descendants
demanded payment. With the happy sum, they could finally afford the advanced technology
necessary to realize a dream they had passed from generation to generation since the
beginning of time: to give birth to a human.
