dwemm

I am a professor of communication and theatre in a very small college in a very small town in a sparsely populated state, West-by-God-Virginia.

I've got a wife, two adult kids, two overweight cats, and one slobbery dog.

I'm a rationalist who's not easily frightened, a homeowner who sometimes remembers to cut his knee high grass, and a city kid who likes the rural lifestyle--just don't ask me to give up the microwave, directing or my DSL.
