Name: the goobster (nickname from my youth when I was ostentatiously goofy, and friends tagged me "goob") Location: Seattle. Mostly the southern and western bits. Don't get into downtown much any more. Drove through the tunnel once, though. Age: 50 Current Preoccupation: Finding the right tone for my sportswriting between "journalist" and "commentator". There are plenty of journalists covering rugby; player movement between teams, records, rankings, etc. I want to write about rugby from a fan's perspective, to help people new to the sport enjoy it more, rather than be boggled by all kinds of inside-knowledge and terminology. Previous Preoccupations: Decades participating deeply in the Burning Man culture. Heavy metal musician ... and funk... and punk... mostly on the bass, but play guitar too. Motorcycles have always been my passion, since the early 1980's, and still are. I'm here. waves
