Ted's Exploits

(No, not those kind of Exploits)

Home

Who is Ted? Why does he get a special place of honor in this site? Well, to help answer those and other questions, I have written a special poem. (ahem...cough)

There was a guy named Ted,

He liked to walk on his head;

He went to Harvard law school and got a degree,

Now look where he is: 43, divorced 4 times, father of 9, friend of none.

That should clarify things for you.

Hmm...my curiosity has been acutely stimulated.(continue)

I loathe happiness, and pride myself in destroying things such as children, unicorns, flowers, and teddy bears.(go back)
