Terminal narcissism is my favorite pastime these days. I don't know what that means for this page yet, but I just like the phrase, so too bad. Oh, how about this: here's a quickie "about me" bio:

Keir DuBois has been steadily destroying his own credibility in print and pixel for over a decade. A recovering music journalist, he has written unnecessarily opinionated spew for both the UCSB Daily Nexus (1997-1998) and the Santa Barbara Independent (2001-2003). Abusing the English language in writing has allowed Keir to further inflate his ego despite the fact that he is constantly becoming older, fatter, and balder than he once was.

Keir is an unrepetant floppy and useless scion of Gonzo, and has been gleefully barfing that awful gibberish up onto the web via his Dubious Ventures blog since 2003. He has also helped several indie rock bands inflict themselves upon the world via his gloriously rudimentary skills playing the bass guitar.

Plus there's all that random geography trivia to show off. No, seriously. I mean, can you rattle off the names of every European country in under 30 seconds? Or draw a map of North America, freehand? I'm thinking no. Keir can do all that crap.
