From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Expansions to come later, but highlights of my CV include stints as a Senior Editor at Britannica.com (the online division of Encyclopædia Britannica and as a freelance QEMS researcher for the Oxford English Dictionary.

Mirth pleaseth some, to others 'tis offence,

Some commend plain conceit, some profound sense;
Some wish a witty Jest, some dislike that,
And most would have themselves they know not what.
Then he that would please all, and himself too,

Takes more in hand than he is like to do.

— Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard's Almanack, 1733
