There is enough identifying information about me out there that there is no point in denying it. That ship sailed for me many years ago. And sometimes it is convenient to be able to say something and have people realize that I have direct experience with it.

Of course you shouldn't believe everything you read on the Internet. Contrary to what you surmised, I was actually born in California, did most of my growing up in Victoria, British Columbia, and Jennifer is not part-Irish.

Now if you want to get disturbed, go read my sister's book, Singing Songs. None of what is discussed there was stuff that I had any control over, so I have no shame about it. And it is all stuff I've said in public before.

As I said, that ship sailed for me long ago. There is no point in hiding it.



I'd no idea she'd written a book. Thanks Ben! As I said her blog was great, I read the entire thing in a single sitting.

Edit. Other sister. Still, I'll give it a look. Talented family you have there.
