Bio

Et Nola is traveling the country in search of a new school and the true meaning of Christmas. He loves learning about new cultures, discussing various philosophies, and approaching the insufferable point at which he can hold a conversation with anyone about anything. With a variety of humor influences and a wealth of unexpected life experiences behind him, he probes into the very reality we share and attempts to pick both brain and heart alike. He once wept because he had no shoes until he met a man who had no feet—and laughed through the tears. Just as life is absurd, so are some of the musings of a man comfortable with the search for his place in the world.

If you're up for a laugh or happen to move slowly when targeted, this is the page for you.
