The con argument went along the lines that someone, living or dead, forfeits most their rights when they start gnawing on your limbs. (Gil's All Fright Diner on zombie rights.)
I love my little zoo. Elliot (named after Pete's Dragon) is my new baby - he's a bearded dragon. Jay is a painted agama (but thinks he's a beardie). Spike and Rex are leopard geckos.
I'm also doing my best to support our local music scene here in Wichita! Check out my calendar for shows (and other noteworthy area events)!

Heroes
The underappreciated people in life -- teachers, parents, local musicians, public servants.
About me: In my quarter-century of life, I've managed to make my way from Chicago to the Twin Cities to Des Moines and finally (or at least currently) Wichita. I'm a huge nerd, as if my profile didn't give that away already. When I'm not working, generally I can be found either at a movie theater (hopefully watching terrible yet wonderful cult flicks and/or B-movies) or at one of the great establishments in town supporting our local music scene. On the occasional day off or night at home, I love to curl up with a good book (or two, or ten). Really, there's not much to it other than that.
