About Puncture Your Sofa
Puncture Your Sofa began two years ago as a timekiller over winter break. This was when I was in grad school at the University of Oregon, and felt guilty about free time.Early Sofa attempts made heavy use of (at that time) trendy stressed type...later it acquired a kind of campy X-Files-meets-Schwa look. Color was conspicuously absent, because my tired old PowerBook only displayed grays.
The latest incarnation of Sofa was born in Billings, Montana, on a cold Saturday afternoon, while Lori was at work.
I intend Puncture Your Sofa to serve two purposes:
- Shamelessly promote myself, my career, my writings and artwork;
- Entertain and inform my friends and family in faraway places.
About the Author
I was born in Lincoln,
Nebraska, where I also went to college. My childhood happened in Scottsbluff, Nebraska.
After college, I lived and traveled in all the parts of the middle of the country that you've never seen and know nothing about: Nebraska, North Dakota, Wyoming, Kansas, Texas.I went to graduate school in Anthropology at the University of Oregon, in fffffunky Eugene, Oregon. My master's research concentrated on the archaeological history of a village at Nash Harbor, on Nunivak Island, Alaska. In the photo at right (by Chris Broyles), I'm standing on the beach at Nash Harbor, on a rare sunny day.
I have a girlfriend, Lori Erickson, also an archaeologist.
