Hey B'Fish-ers,
Well, since I have time before my next class, here it is:
My name is Graham and I live in Vancouver, BC. I attend the University of British Columbia (UBC), and I'm looking into majoring in English Lit. I must confess though, this desire - for a supposedly useless degree - is a product of being a lurker and sometimes contributer on Bananafish since Late '95. Those 6 (!) years of faithful lurking have done wonders in my comprehension of literature and actually writing essays (thanks Will, Tim, Scottie, Old School Malcolm, Camille, et al.). I was born in Canberra, Australia (and still hold my citizenship tightly) but I spent most of my years in the Great White North's most northerly major outpost of Edmonton, Alberta. I'm heavily involved in politics (the archives are witness to that) and - true to Canadian form - I like hockey. Also, when Scottie first joined up (a long time ago) I resisted making a Detroit Red Wings joke. Oh, my favourite Salinger is - still - CitR but "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" is a close second (doing a!
n !
essay on it actually helped me get into UBC. Again, thanks bananafish past and present!). Damn, that was pretty scatterbrained...
Later,
-"Old School" Graham
