To understand the character of a person, it is important to list the facts:

(1) I have a recurring dream where I’m being interviewed for a job by a man whose neck is like Swiss cheese, completely filled with holes. Unfortunately, I have yet to get the job.

(2) I live on a 200 year old farm. Before moving in, I worried that it would be filled with ghosts. Every time I pass the ancient barn at night, I wait for something to appear. Nothing has shown up — yet.

(3) I have somewhere between 1 hundred and 1 million TikTok followers.

(4) One time, I went surfing and got caught in a pod of wild dolphins and even pet one on the snout. I believe my kinship with dolphins has brought me great luck in life.

(5) I’m currently seeking investors for my invention idea: Blast Shoes: Shoes that Blast You Across the Room — Or Even to Other Countries.
