Peter Griffin Volunteer Mentor
At various times he wanted to be a teacher [the pay sucks], a pilot [can't handle heights, besides you have to study too much], an actor [lacks the looks, refer picture], a dancer [too fat], a basketball player [too short], a boxer [not blood thirsty enough], a tae kwon do master [lacked the dedication] and a clinical psychologist [realised he made a better patient than a shrink]. He has sold ad space, been a journalist, theatre critic, PR executive and an unemployed bum. He is single. Was never married. Still believes he will find the absolutely right person one day. Is straight when it comes to sexual orientation, but kinda warped in many other respects, mainly with respect to sense of humour. Which probably accounts for the "single" bit. One day may revisit some earlier ambitions or make films or write books or whatever. Meanwhile, he is an associate creative director in an advertising agency, which is a designation that sounds far more important than it is. Between writing copy, making the odd commercial and helping run a creative department, he plays wih his computer - mainly fooling around with pictures and designing web pages - and surfs the net. He is a (barely) reformed chat addict. Peter is very interested in meeting people from around the world, so that perhaps, one day, when he has enough money to travel, he will get lots of advice on cheap places to stay, and perhaps, who knows, some of them may even lend him space to stretch out his sleeping bag. You can reach him at thegriff@earthling.net or via icq on the UIN 9922160 or, occasionally, in LinguaMOO under the handle utopian. trAce Volunteer Mentors are always at hand to answer your queries about technical matters. Post your questions at the trAce WebBoard, in the Help and Advice thread, and they will do their best to answer them. The pioneer trAce volunteers are: Peter Griffin, Steen Kristiansen, Kirsten Krauth, Kaz Madigan and Margaret Penfold.
