flotsky is 36, and ambles through life at a gentle pace, surrounded by gadgets, books and televisions. Sloth is his vice, but it leads to some interesting distractions along the way.

He is the world’s leading investigator into P.Wyndham Little, takes a great interest in the works of Kurt Vonnegut, and gets all excited about gaming.
