I had just about stopped partying by then, except for a few occasions

I still drink, just in moderation now. At 36, I've discovered that it's much more fun to mess with the drunks at parties

Laughing gas is better and no side effects.

Oh, how I loves me some NOS when I go to the dentist... I still feel the pain, but I no longer care

What does 'mute mean?

'mute is short for my handle, Wintermute. Wintermute is a swiss AI in the cyberpunk novel Neuromancer. He was also a severely retarded knight from the crusades who was an idiot-savant. He could instantly tell his latitude by glancing at the stars. He has a slight problem with longitude though, and led his men east, missing the battle completely and causing their eventual death of starvation. Combine this information with the anagram of my real name and "Proving Longitude Wrong," then do with it what you will

Maybe I should make a FAQ about myself and include it in my sig, 'cause you're not the first to ask (and I never know exactly how much information to give)

I believe in full disclosure....of everyone else. Alhough I've not exactly been witholding much myself!

It's not as if I revealed a ton of personal information... Just where I got the handle, and where William Gibson may have gotten it

But when asked, I'll give up most information about myself...

I'm 29, so it's been legal for me to drink alcohol for eight years, but I don't drink very often--mostly at parties and with friends.

I'm 19, and the legal age over here is 19 so I can drink, too! Haha, what's with everyone talking about the booze? Bleh, I think it's a bit overrated.

Screwdrivers are my friend.
