Because a me-me is easy, I'm short of content, and I like to eat (a LOT).

Lifted from Dad's, Roberta's and the Atomic Nerds' sites.

For a guy who considers himself a Foodie, I can't believe how much of this I've never touched. Many times I've seen it, but was involved with something else at the time.

Some correction is in order.
