A little about me
 * I spent over two intense editing years (Jan 2004-April 2006) here as a Wikipediholic, primarily focusing on dog-related articles. I remanifest at random intervals whenever I see something that needs improving ("whenever..." hahahahahhaha gasp... that is, whenever I look at a page...) and sometimes to check for messages. I retain my administrator titleage.
 * I am a professional technical writer and editor and have written some speculative fiction.
 * I've competed in dog agility since 1996 with 4 dogs, earning championships with each, and study dog breeds and dog training (see User:Elf/dog book database) because, well: Dogs.
 * I am a Master Composter.
 * I can haz hack HTML and most wiki markups.
 * I've been involved with computers, mostly software, since almost back when they used steam-powered CPUs. I am a Mac user; PC only when necessary.

The horrible addiction...and recovery?

My laughs for the day
 * Almost anything from m:Category:Humor
 * Quote from wikipedia chat room:
 * ...[complaining about nitpicky responses to simple statements about page editing such as] that says We are reconfiguring the axiom-thrust particle disproportionators in order to improve flange density followed by 19 pages of argument about why this is right, wrong, or would be better with m-dashes! :) Thanks, --Nevilley 09:17, 4 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * Using m-dashes to reconfigure the axiom-thrust particle disproportionators would be the height of stupidity... Duh! Tuf-Kat 14:15, Jun 4, 2004 (UTC)
