No, I did not go to your school. I am not the Jim Clark who founded Netscape. I am not the dead race car driver. I did not direct the movie you saw. I have never worked for your company. I am not related to the person you know. We were not childhood friends. I do not owe you money.
I am not a beautiful and unique snowflake. There are 409 people in the U.S. named Jim Clark. There are 11,530 people in the U.S. and 1,765 people in the U.K. named James Clark. There are 4,991,477 people in the U.S. with the first name James; statistically, it’s the 1st most popular first name. A Google search result for “James Clark” yields over 801,000 pages.
My middle name (Andrew) is derived from the Greek name Ανδρεας, which comes from ανηρ (aner) “man” and ανδρος (andros) “of a man”. I interpret that as meaning “a real man’s man”.
I write comics. My latest is a webcomic western adventure called The Guns of Shadow Valley which you can read online. A few of the other comic books I’ve written are Scar Tissue and Genius J’s Technicolour Almanack of Graphical Wonderment. I’ve also have had my poetry, fiction and comic book stories published in various anthologies that didn’t make me any money, but I’m of the belief that starvation makes one a better writer anyway.
I’m also a professional geek, as evident by my resume.
I am a proud father of two and I play the ukulele. My “official” music page is here and I have some CDs & MP3s for sale if you like that sorta thing.
I share a birthday with Hillary Clinton, but she is older and has a bigger penis.
Anagrams of my full name include REDNECK ALARM JAWS, LAWN DECK SMEAR JAR and CANDLE WARMS A JERK.
I do not like beets.
I don’t update this blog as often as I should. Lately I’ve succumbed to lazy blogging via Twitter.
