Tom Wiggins Biography
(for those of you who have not had the distinct pleasure of meeting me
personally).
I am indeed a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I
have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more
efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban
refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently.
Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row, although I don't recall having yet
walked upon it no matter what my fans and clients may tell you.
I woo women with my sensuous and godlike bass drum playing, I can pilot
bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed (no not the kind musicians use),
and I learned to cook Thirty Minute Brownies in twenty minutes from Martha
Stewart. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in
thirty-seven foreign countries.
Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended
a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I
play virtuoso bluegrass cello and snare drum duets, (No you don't smoke BLUE
GRASS it will kill you) I was scouted by the METs, I am the subject of numerous
documentaries (self written and produced and never read or seen). When I am
bored, I build large suspension bridges in my back yard. I enjoy urban hang
gliding, ( great sport for Peeping Toms). On Wednesdays after teaching school I
repair electrical appliances at the local adult store free of charge.
I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie. Critics
worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy and seersucker evening wear.
I don't perspire. I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan mail. I have
been caller number nine and have won the weekend passes. Last summer I toured
New Jersey with a traveling centrifugal-force demonstration. I bat .400 in
the game of love. My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in
international botany circles. Children trust me, except for my grandkids.
I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I
once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, David Copperfield, and Drums in one day and
still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I know the
exact location of every food item in the supermarket (even though they move them
nightly to try and confuse me). I have performed several covert operations
for the CIA and Musicians Union. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep
in a chair. While on vacation in outer Detroit. I successfully negotiated
with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery and Arab liquor store.
Being part Cherokee, The laws of physics do not apply to me.
I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills are all paid. On
weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I
discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. I have made
extraordinary four course meals using only a mouli and a toaster oven. I breed
prizewinning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff-diving competitions in
Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin. I have played Hamlet, I have
performed open-heart surgery, and I have spoken with Elvis.
I am a close personal recognized acquaintance of Steve Barbone and Bill
Gunter, which along with fifty dollars get you a seat at almost any social function
held in a diner in the San Francisco Bay Area, if you are wearing a shirt and
shoes.
