After sifting through many titles, I've decided to accept the title of adaptor. Born in Germany, raised in Japan, finished school in Iowa - culture shock. Performed magic in Japanese at Caesar's Palace for three years, and I only barbecue with charcoal. I don't belong here, but since I've taken my personal story of suffering violent childhood abuse around the world to critical acclaim in the form of a one man show called Basic Training, I think I'll stay. Let's meet and eat. No nonsense, no pretension. Just sharing. @kahlilashanti
