Blair Garvey is the greatest.

Blair began his "kicking butt at life" stage early on. While finishing high school, Blair attended a junior college for more challenging classes. A professor at Georgia Perimeter College now uses one of Blair's papers as an "example of clear organization and development of content.". Also during high school, Blair finished at the peak of his illustrious career as a Boy Scout when he achieved the highest rank of Eagle Scout as a member of Troop 2000 in Suwanee, GA. Blair's project, a community food drive to stock a local food pantry, helped lead to his receipt of Senior of the Year as a member of his local church.

Blair attended Emory University from 2001-2004, majoring in economics and political science, and graduating with highest honors. Blair's honors thesis entitled "Currency crises in developing countries 1975-2000 : the effects of government institutions and IMF participation" is on file at Emory's Woodruff Library. Blair was also invited to present his paper at the Third Annual Carroll Round held April 15-18, 2004 at Georgetown University, with distinguished guest John Nash.

While living in San Francisco in the fall of 2006 Blair tore apart the Go Kart Racing scene, finishing in the top three in all events, and first in the grueling 20 minute multiple lap race. Despite the victory, Blair felt some controversy from the win after some alleged he muscled his way into first place using "Nascar" style racing moves. Blair contends he cleanly passed the second place winner, Armando Levy, in a display of his superior racing abilities. The win was still bittersweet, because Stacy Price, clearly the best racer of the day, slowed down his pace in the last lap in a selfless act of camaraderie.

Blair is a man among men, and a wizard at the underwater cello, god save him.
