User:Big Smooth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello, I'm Big Smooth. In February 2006, I finally decided that I should contribute to Wikipedia instead of just using it all the time. I most often edit sports and pop-culture articles, but I am a fan of the Random button. I also keep an eye on vandals (sometimes using VandalProof) and when I'm not working on more time-consuming edits I enjoy being a WikiGnome (making minor grammar, style, and spelling corrections). My stats 'n' junk..

As far as my background, I was born and raised in and around the beautiful city of Portland, Oregon. I attended Willamette University, first majoring in computer science and then English before settling on economics. I've also lived in Maplewood, New Jersey and Herndon, Virginia. I love to travel but I can't afford to go as many places as I'd like. I did go to London a few years back, with highlights including a trip to Abbey Road and a train ride to visit the spectacular York Minster. My last major trip was my honeymoon in beautiful Curaçao.
I used to speak French quite well but I have not used it in years. I also speak a modicum of Spanish (enough to follow the plot of Dora, la Exploradora), but that's about it.
I like photography despite my lack of skill. I have taken some decent pictures with my Fujifilm FinePix S5000 which I recently ditched in favor of the compact F30. I finally created a Commons account; please feel free to peruse my gallery.
I love animals, especially dogs. I own two Beagles - one that's very laid back, and one that's more than a handful.
I am also into cars, and am always reading about new and upcoming models. I currently fly in a Saab 9-3 convertible.
