Do I have a life?
Why, yes... yes I do... or did at any rate.
Although research is obviously its own reward, I have pursued a truly ridiculous slew of hobbies over the years. For example, I sometimes wrote Hip Hop Reviews; used to run The Annual New Jack Hip Hop Awards; ran the funky-music and hiphop mailing lists; and for more than 15 years maintained the This Week In Black History page and calendar (I believe it was one of the first online databases of its kind).
I sometimes interact with the physical world, doing things like racquetball, reading (I have several thousand more than 20,000 comic books because, well, of course I do), and ultimate frisbee. I have a family, too, or so they tell me.
