I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me

87
people with my name in the U.S.A.

How many have your name?

So much for uniqueness.

To clarify this abominable situation just a smidge...

I'm not:
  • The mortgage broker. (Trust me — you don't want me handling your money.)

  • The insurance executive. (See above.)

  • The professional poker player. (I play, but only in online tournaments, and never for high stakes.)

  • The convicted felon with an Islamic alias. (When I need a pseudonym, I prefer to masquerade as a Zoroastrian.)

  • The college professor and gay rights activist. (I only swing from the opposite side of the plate.)

  • The guy at Veterans Affairs. (My adoptive father is a veteran. His affairs are his own business.)

  • The fraternity brother. (I lived in Greece, but I was never a Greek.)
I am:
  • The copywriter and editor.

  • The voiceover artist.

  • The comic art collector.

  • The movie reviewer.

  • The a cappella singer.

  • The preacher.

  • The Jeopardy! guy.

  • The blogger.
And I think I've got more Google hits than any of the other 86 versions. (Which is as it should be, in a just universe.) So most of the time, if you go looking for me, you'll probably find me.

The real, honest-to-Swan me.

I hope that's clear, now.
