What is a VonGrinner, Anyway?

VonGrinner started his sojourn in life around St. Crispin's Day, in the year of the flood in Salt Lake City.

Like St. Crispin, VonGrinner has spent time in the hexagon itself. He parlers francais and hablars espanol.

Like Crispin, VonGrinner suffers from cockamamie ideas of saving the world, and hopes that all ends at least as well.

Just as Crispin's name is derived from the Roman (Latin) Crispus, meaning "curly-haired" or "curly-headed," VonGrinner has a decidedly windy frock.

Latin you say? Funny, VonGrinner was metaphorically raped by that fine language as a Freshman. But he was able to eke out a family motto, thenceforth Spiche Regina Omnium Est. Here's to the prudent management of rickets, milady!

Perhaps that is enough by way of introduction; we wouldn't want to waste your valuable time.

VonGrinner has just started a blog. Welcome.

Welcome! I hope all future blogs don't have so many links, that took a lot of time to get through. That's pretty amazing that St.Crispin's day is Oct 25 and he was a twin! Does that make me Crispinian? Anyways, enjoyed the blog and am honored to be the first-ever commenter.

I wish my brain could work even half as wittingly as yours in such a short posting. You are truly an English major. Loved it.
