The Brooklyn Accent Free

Born two years after Charlie Brown's debut; mainframe geek for three decades for a great metropolitan bank, now mostly retired but doing a few gigs as a spelling and grammar geek. I've identified with Charlie Brown as a kid, Mike Doonesbury in college, Dilbert at work, and Opus in my free time.

    Happiness is an option, but it costs a lot extra and you have to pre-order it from the factory. The after-market versions don’t work anywhere near as well.
