Pay attention! There will be a quiz later.
I'm not grumpy. I'm just old!

If you don't like the way I think, maybe you're just Cis-Phobic.

TMI Time! (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Okay, What's Up with that Screen Name?
A: Well, that's best answered with two long stories:

Q: Why Bear?
A: In the early 1970s, my brother and I were wrapped up in the Citizen's Band (CB) radio craze. My 'handle' was 'Grizzly Bear', because it suited my size and personality.

Q: So, What is a Perfesser?
A: In a previous career, I worked as a Security Officer in some nasty places. A truck driver came in one day and asked for 'The Perfesser'. Excuse me? Apparently I was the only member of the guard force who had completed High School, let alone had two years of college. The nickname stuck, and years later, a friend combined the two. For five years working in a Nuclear Power station, my hardhat read 'Perfesser Bear' instead of my given name. Some people had no idea it wasn't my real name.
Thank you for that, Lux. Rest in peace.

Q: Hey, Aren't You...
A: No, I am not Eric Bear; although I respect him and his Mac work, and I'm jealous of his Taos, NM home. We just have the same screen names. I am also perfesser_bear on eBay, DeviantART and Flickr.
