About me:


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6!

I am a writer, comedian, performance poet, spoken word artist, raconteur, weekday media henchman, and experienced etcetera. I am, let me note, not claiming any significant proficiency in any of these areas, I merely note that they are, indeed, what I do. Go to http://www.lulu.com/benpobjie to check out and/or purchase my first book, Handy Latin Phrases. I will use this page, once I figure out the MySpace trickeries, to keep anyone who might be interested updated on my career, gigs etc. and occasiornally drop a snippet of my work.

A little more about me personally; let yourself bathe in the warm puddle of my life. I am married to a lovely lass whom I met on the Internet many years ago. The Web was a very different place back then. No chatrooms, no blogs. It consisted basically of a programme with which you could apply a powerful electric shock to a cow around whose neck you had tied a message with a ribbon. Upon receipt of this shock, the cow would rush wildly off, hopefully in the direction of the person to whom you had addressed the message. My message was originally meant for Anne of Green Gables star Megan Follows, but ended up with my future wife and so all ended well after all. I also have a son, Jonah. He is thirteen months old, as of August 2006. He will dance to anything, but especially likes punk rock and the Golden Girls theme. I thank him for being a friend.

Whoa.
Who I'd like to meet:
A man with a live trout growing from his hip.
