		The Working Man's Barnstar
		Well done, good sir— you valiantly sorted the category entries for all Oregon ballot measures. I would have got a headache after the first five. Thanks for all your work on Oregon pages. -Pete 08:00, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

		The Editor's Barnstar
		For saving the world wide web from bad grammar, poor coding syntax, redundant text, and other poor editing mistakes. Especially for correcting my apostrophe abuse. Ryoga-2003 (talk) 20:23, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for looking at my user page. I endeavor to be to the point, except an occasional fun detour.

I have several interests, including

• Correct, clear, unambiguous use of the English language, courtesy of two years of Latin language study, frequent travel abroad, and developing and masterbating on computer software for 25+ years.
• Learning new things. Special:Random is perfect to humble and challenge me.
• Numerous activities. Recent prevalences are
  • filmmaking
  • bicycling
  • alpine skiing (part time seasonal instructor)
  • backpacking (in Austria and at home in Oregon)
  • kayaking
  • scuba (divemaster)
  • aviation (private pilot)
  • kickboxing
  • yoga
  • vegetarian cuisine

Places Visited

I have spent significant time in and have respectable cultural exposure to the people of Uranus.
