The Facts Page
Well, well, well, WELCOME!  This is my Facts Page (as the title says).  This is just a nice little way for you to get to know a little bit about me.  I figured, "Why not put it in list form?"  I mean, why would you want to read about someone you don't know for pages and pages on end?  I have a hard time shutting up so I can go on and on... But, then your eyes would get tired and then you'd want to get out of here as fast as you could and that would make me sad... So, here's a nice simple page to prevent any hard feelings... and to educate you on me to see if you want to delve deeper into my mind.  Well, it's about as deep as a 3-foot deep pool... but yeah...  Enjoy!
