I’ve picked up Rodd’s Australian habit of calling English people “poms”. He’s always maintained that nobody knows why they use that word, but Nick always claims that it somehow stands for “Prisoner of His Majesty”. Fortunately, Snopes has an answer.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
