About Me

Tatarize
San Bernardino, CA, United States
I am a thirty something year-old straight white college educated male who likes his odds. -- I'm a liberal atheist with a degree in Computer Science, broad interests, and ... there really should be a good 'third thing' to put here. Oh, well, I'm limiting myself to 30 seconds of thinking about it. -- Don't ever try to list things and toss in a superset like "broad interest".
