Letter from Zucker-Dachboden Industrien GmbH

I don’t rightly know what this was supposed to translate to, but I’ll assume it was some kind of fan mail…
“You should drive rear Matze,
with the parts really only occasionally on the runway…. The sugar dad, he is trace-more stable and faster is stop ‘ ne whole corner more rigidly than the Stomp. Carving? What is….? With the radius (approx. 40 m) you will not want to really try it, or? There you lie again with the Stomp richtig(er). There nevertheless at least a certain Taillierung suggests itself. Sugar dad is probably not for it in the area (nearly) to toppen… and with all conditions, in the Pipe however to forget (again much too rigidly). But stop of the Stomp is made, which does not go off so correctly for it in the area (however only in the direct comparison!). Actually you must only know, what exactly you want. Both does not go to stop (unfortunately).
Bye, Guido”
Nothing like a nonsense post now and then. Actually, this was some kind of letter to a German ski website, which had “zuckervati” in it several times. I tried to make sense by running it through the Altavista translator, but, as you can see, it doesn’t work well with jargon.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
