One of my favorite things in life is having people wonder how a person this "addled" can be so damn good at what he does. You should get some joy out of this feeling too.

I hear Kid A is the most compelling album ever. Maybe go with that.

Yeah, when I was an undergraduate there at ACU I was involved in everything from on-campus fornication to off-campus drug raids. I never landed in the Dean's office, but was instead one of the Dean's favorite pets, featured in fundraising videos as a model student, even. Graduated with two diplomas, Honors program degree, cum laude.

I am but a pale shade of what I used to be, but you would have liked my most mongerous self, the guy who showed up for a philosophy final tripping balls and got the highest grade in the class.

I used to be the model for the work hard play hard be successful and have fun too ethic, but as I succeeded and my friends crashed and burned into their varied addictions, a lot of the savor went out of it for me.

So I moved from ultraconservative Texas to ultraliberal Oregon and cleaned up my act when I started my Master's. Go figure.
