and i'm going to give it to them...

hi. this is my "who we are post." i'm not a yeti.

i don't like to use capital letters. we are lucky i'm even using punctuation.

i'm exceedingly rational. i am a committed skeptic and atheist. i live by several tenants, i'll summarize them briefly:

1. everyone lies.
2. someone somewhere always screws things up.
3. everyone acts out of self-interest, the trick is finding out what they see as their self-interest.
4. as far as the world goes, there is only the normal and that which we haven't explained yet. nothing is unexplainable, there is no paranormal.

i'm on my second career. my first was as a restaurant manager. that didn't work out very well. not that i was bad at it, i just couldn't stand doing it. turns out, i don't like restaurants. i don't like irrationality or excessive exaggeration. there is a lot of that in restaurants. people have no concept of reality, and apparently, they think that telling me their food is "ice cold" is more offensive than if it is only room temperature. news flash, its not. its just more annoying. and people never seemed to understand that you are there to help them and fix problems.

i still fix problems. i'm kind of a fixer in ways. i fire people, i come up with clever solutions to problems, and i try to anticipate what other people want or will do. i try to figure out how we know who did what, and how to beat them. sometimes i figure out how to convince people they are going to lose, even when they think they are right. that's not easy to do. everyone always thinks they are a winner. they aren't always right about that.

that's as much as i want to say what i do. this gives the reader some perspective about where i'm coming from though. that might be helpful. maybe do some proverbial light shedding.

enjoy the day. hopefully our compatriots post. maybe we should find some depressing stats about all of us. like we are all single and over the age of 27. how modern is that. or collectively we all total less than four stories in height. or our collective weight. or maybe that kooch is taller than offord and I combined. that is making me forlorn...

Who We Are Part One

Welcome to The Yummy Pancake. I am Ngewo, and I would like to tell you a little about myself. I am a seven foot tall Yeti, who recently moved from the mountains of Nepal, to a small village in southeast Cambodia. Why? Well why not, I am so freakin' tired of the cold. Seriously, snow everyday, that shit sucks. So I packed it up, and head down to the jungles for a bit.

Some of my interests include throwing rocks at mountain climbers, eating yaks, attacking villages, you know the usual. I am an avid Jai Alai fan, my favorite team being the Dengchi Ballchuckers, you can usually catch me at their home games.

Really that is about all there is for me to say. I am currently unemployed, for some reason the people in the area have a real problem with hiring a Yeti, but do not fear, I have found a quaint internet cafe where I can keep you all up on the happenings of the world. Hopefully in a few weeks I can find a job and buy a nice laptop, I am thinking about getting a Mac, what do you humans think?

Well that about wraps it up.
