I run a particle accelerator. Sometimes I also do websites. Still watching out for Triangle Man.
Remembering my two good boys, both of whom are gone now.

I've reached a special milestone here on BlueSky. Someone told me to kill myself.

5 is the pick if you want an uneventful flight. Vance has no facility for human communication, so I doubt I'd hear a peep out of him for the whole trip and I'm sure I could intimidate him out of the armrest.
On the other hand, seat 9 might get me a handie, so there's that.
