What would you like to accomplish before you die: Bettering the reputation of atheists and/or skeptics
About me: Well, I was born a bastard child to a bearded fat lady.  Shortly thereafter, I ran off and joined a traveling refrigerator salesman.  From him, I learned the importance of the roadside burger joint and maternity pants for men.  My education mostly came from AM radio and Wendy's restaurant tables.  One time, we stopped in Las Vegas, where I got bored and started giving tips to poker players on how to count cards.  One of them was an investment manager for the Mob.  He decided on the spot to hire me.  I have learned a great deal about how to invest in the black commodity markets and small cap guns.  Just kidding.  I really am an investment manager, and I have a great boyfriend that I love.  Other than that, there's really not much to say.
Anything Else: Nope
