Who am I? I'm a Gothic Libertarian Pagan philosopher from California.

I'm not a major editor of Wikipedia, but am instead a bit player. I know a little bit about this and that and make contributions when I can.

Picture of the Day[edit]

Laocoön and His Sons
Laocoön and His Sons is an ancient sculpture which was excavated in Rome, Italy, in 1506. It depicts the Trojan priest Laocoön and his sons Antiphantes and Thymbraeus being attacked by sea serpents. The figures in the statue are nearly life-sized, with the entire group measuring just over 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) in height. The statue is likely to be the same one that received praise from the Roman writer Pliny the Elder, who attributed the work (then housed in the palace of the emperor Titus) to three Greek sculptors from the island of Rhodes: Agesander, Athenodoros and Polydorus, but he did not mention the work's date or patron. Modern scholars are not certain of the work's origins; it might be an original work or a copy of an earlier bronze sculpture. After its discovery, Laocoön and His Sons was put on public display in the Vatican Museums, where it remains.Sculpture credit: attributed to Agesander, Athenodoros and Polydorus; photographed by Wilfredo Rodríguez

Politics[edit]

I participate in the Political Spectrum article from time to time, mostly in the Alternate Spectra section.

I also participate in articles about Libertarianism when I can.

Comics[edit]

Having been a fan for years, I try to add what I can to the Comics pages. I was the one who first inserted the idea in The Joker that his insanity might be a Super Power.

Special Projects[edit]

Once a week I review the articles for deletion votes and chime in.

I also look at New Pages, New Images, and especially Recent Changes occasionally because that is where most problems occur.

I'm not a member of any special projects team though.

Religious Imposters[edit]

I'm working on impostors Mike Warnke, Laurel Rose Willson, John Todd (occultist), Hershel Smith, Rebecca Brown (Christian author), and William Schnoebelen to link them to the category Impostors as a step to possibly create a Relgious Impostors category. If you know of more frauds like these, let me know.
