2021 update. My first new laptop since 2008! 16GB RAM > 4GB RAM. Who knew! Stay safe out there everyone. Take care of yourselves. I've been around, fixing the same grammar mistakes, misspellings, and link issues all this time, from several different computers.
2018 Update. Wow, remembered my password after all this time. And all to make note of adding an external link to The Parson's Wedding. I'll be around.
Hello.
I enjoy reading almost everything, much more than I enjoy writing.
Contributions
[edit]So far, all I have done is find random articles with grammar mistakes and fix them.
