    Pretty simple really, I was born in '76 the year of the dragon and I have lived the majority of my life somewhere close to the 54th parallel and I love it, Dragon of the North sounds really pretentious to me so northerndragon it was.

    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    My user name is the backward spelling of the infamous Gold Country scrivener, Xul Nairb who immigrated to California from Burundi in 1850 to seek his fortune during the gold rush. As usual, he was a day late and a dollar short. His memoir was etched in epic dust.

    I wanted a name nobody could figure out how to say or pronounce.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    :lol: it is, I still get some people who don't know how to pronounce it.
    It's great when people actually bring me rock candy when they meet me. I like grape and strawberry.

    It's not good to stack your records folks. Does bad things to them. Always keep them upright. . .
    it's a fragile thing, this life we lead.
