Welcome! You're probably here either because you're curious as to who this mysterious "King Bee" is, or because you accidentally clicked on a link that brought you here. In either event, enjoy your stay, and don't get too bored.

Tea and crumpets (and possibly some strumpets, funds permitting) can be found in the back room. Help yourself, but please clean up your own mess.

[edit] About the username

One of the greatest songs in the world, "Begging You" by The Stone Roses, contains the words "king bee," in that order (believe it or not). If you want a context, go search out the song and give it a listen. I've pointed you in the right direction, but as they say, one can lead a horse to water, but one cannot make him drink. I'm not sure if that's true, but this is starting to get too tangential for my tastes. Let's move on, shall we?

[edit] Education

I earned a B.S. in Mathematics from Marquette University in 2004, when I was also named the "Most Outstanding Mathematics Student." I am currently in graduate school at Iowa State University, working towards a Ph.D. in the same field.

[edit] Music

One of the only things I care about is music. Seriously, I spend all my money on it, all my time listening/finding it, and I own a car solely so that I can drive to concerts.

Anyway, here are a few of the bands that are in my rotation right now.

These, of course, are subject to change at a moment's notice.

[edit] Movies

The other thing I care about is movies. I have an account on DVD Town. Clicking that link will bring you to my profile and thus my DVD collection, which is always growing. I'd love to see a similar website that tracks all the CDs you own, so if you are aware of something like that, please notify me on my talk page. I'll probably be so grateful that I'll send you a truckload of contraband. Seriously.

[edit] Parting Words

This page will be updated as I feel the need and have some free time. I just got something up here in a rush right now, but it will look better later. Promise.

No, seriously. I promise. Fine, don't believe me.
