Me

Hello, I'm P. A. Zetler, and I live in Puzzletown, Pennsylvania, two miles to the southwest from Newry. I was born on the 29th of October in 1986 in Altoona, about twenty miles to the north. I'm a new user greeter, a Trekkie, and a slugabed. I know how to play chess, Risk, Monopoly, mancala, hearts, Egyptian ratscrew, and checkers, drink tea properly, play guitar, use a hatchet, axe, and maul, operate a Unix prompt, use a camera, type on a qwerty keyboard properly, write in Latin, make a snowball, build a fire, use 'whom' correctly, tell a Miranda class starship from a Soyuz, write a shell script, and walk through Manhattan without dying. I like God, photography, Linux, Unix in general, computers in general, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, MegaTokyo, Star Trek: The Next Generation, tea, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, They Might Be Giants, Soul Coughing, Invader Zim, music, Pennsylvania, New York City, &c. as an abbreviation for et cetera, bebop, Stratocasters, M*A*S*H, fog, bus trips, cold weather, beagles, dogs in general, and animals in general.
