| Location | Saint Clair Shores, Michigan, United States |
| Introduction | I am Arandir, the Noble Wanderer, because I made up the handle for myself in high school and the momentum never ebbed. I am Mr. Gugg because I foolishly revealed the origins of my last name and my friends enthusiastically embraced the mispronunciation. I am married to Elisabeth and the father of Justin which is the best thing about my life. I have high ascetic ideals up to which I do not live. My favorite Latin phrase is Tempus Fugits (fu' jitz). I like butchering language, just because I can. And I am a Greek Orthodox Priest. |
