The file contained a photo of a baby, and a note which I have transcribed:

For all intents and purposes, and according to the most competent authorities, I look considerably like myself, as a rule. I also bear a strong resemblance to photographs of myself, even those taken some time ago.

This is possibly why I am frequently mistaken for myself, and not someone else.

…Okay, no, seriously?

Seriously.

I’m a human being, how like or unlike you is difficult to say. While I do talk about my life (I like being Internet neighbors!), I prefer to remain just a little reticent, reserved, retiring, lest I become larger than the ideas I believe in. I think ideas should be bigger than their articulators. I don’t want to be a little lamp radiating my own truth and beauty, but a little moon reflecting (however dimly) Truth and Beauty as they exist “out there” in the mind of God.

I am the two-bit Jeremiah, and if what I say about the Boot and the monsters and the propaganda isn’t strictly accurate, it’s more true than some things. I’m a student, for what it’s worth, a Christian (usually some kind of Presbyterian), and my secret mission is to be J.D. Salinger. I may or may not be a writer; I’ve had poetry published in amphibi.us. I talk a lot about God, a RIDICULOUS amount about my stories (some of which I share, along with a jillion related drawings), and once in a while about my life, music, history, and other interests.
