Smallplates is the mental outlet for John David Anderson. This humble corner of the net houses his political rants, philosophical musings, and sub-conscious stream of ... consciousness. John's interests include programming, design, underground tightrope walking, music, gaming, soccer, and wrench swallowing. He is indeed a mammal, and can often be seen in the wild executing the midnight wolf nerve kung-fu, or the sign of the fairy penetration.

Into the hands of every individual is given a power for good and evil—the silent, unconscious, unseen influence of his life. This is simply the constant radiation of what man really is, not what he pretends to be.
