| Introduction | I often blog with the name Lynx because they are beautiful but their legs are a little long so they look goofy. Absurdity makes life worth living. I'd be a Buddhist, but I'm too damn attached. I'd be a nihilist, but I can't bring myself to care. If I was born in the time and place that Dadism occurred, I would probably have contributed artwork. I am a skeptic nowadays because I used to be so gullible. I believe that human beings are defined by their ability to create stories. We make meaning and try to devise rules from the chaos of existence. Sometimes our attempts to live by the rules lead to remarkable results. Other times I can't stop laughing. |

What spells can you cast with magic markers?
I can recreate a decent likeness of someone! Or, I can send someone into a Hell dimension. Whichever you prefer.
