Full Name: Brother James

Age: seems to change about once a year or so

Origin (a): a monastic title; the result of reading too much church history and theology

Origin (b): the western portion of the Mississippi River valley, today known as the Twin Cities, Hennepin County, or Minneapolis

Dwelling in…: depends on the time of year. so far it’s been Minneapolis; Victoria, BC; soon it’ll be Stirling, UK…i really don’t know. Maybe I should just keep it simple and say “Earth.”

Do?: Post-Secondary student, park maintenace, courier

Want to do?: Write histories of E. Europe, play music, write half-decent fiction and poetry, take pretty pictures, ride my bicycle…it goes on.

What’s in the record collection?: Too much really. Actually, that’s a lie. Not enough. Been mostly indie for the last few years, but is increasingly being accompanied by country of one variety or another. Intermingled with hip-hop, classic rock (of one variety or another), electronic, classical, folk (lots of folk), really this is a topic for conversation rather than writing.

Influences: My father & mother, David Bazan, Johnathan Ford, Hank Williams, CS Lewis, Adam Voith, Fyodor Dostoevsky.

Friends who’s names will more-than-likely show up in the blogs: David (webmaster), Christena, Anne, Bill, Benjamin, there will be others too.

What if I had a million dollars?: I’d watch too much Simpsons and eat too much Spaghettios and not read enough.

When is this over?: now.
