1. I’m grateful that I slacked off in my sixth-grade computer class, since typing with all of the wrong fingers naturally holds my hands in a position that prevents carpal tunnel syndrome.
2. Depending on when you met me, I might have been: a checkers champion, the kid who squirted Super Glue in his eye, a competitive Ping-Pong player, Tweedle Dum, a high school valedictorian, a fake blond, 1⁄12 of an all-male a capella group, a graduate of the Vanderbilt School of Engineering, a nomad, a street musician, or a pigeon assassin.
3. My little brother is smarter than me. My little sister is a better writer than I’ll ever be. My mom has twice as much energy as me. And my dad’s mustache makes mine look like a wannabe.
4. Somehow, I convinced one of my co-authors to marry me. Now I have a wife. And she’s so dang cool.
5. I co-created SoulPancake to see what happens when you simultaneously smash art and spirituality into your brain stem.
