Hi, this is Eric, and this is my first entry to Off on A Tangent. If I ramble, you'll forgive me.I have a lot of strange ideas floating around in my head, many of which worry my friends and family. For example, I often make comments about the dystopic fantasy world in which I am a godlike ruler and despot. Nothing really cruel there, but people would need to pass a test to get their street-crossing license.
