A Short Biography
Jennifer Larson was born in Superior, Wisconsin on a lovely fall day. Oops,
sorry. It was northern Wisconsin. Let’s try this again. Ahem.
Jennifer Larson was born in Superior, Wisconsin on a freezing fall day. The sky
was a clear blue with nary a cloud in sight. She remembers it well.
The waves gently lapped onto the shore of Lake Superior as a giant
ship carcass graced the scene.
Jennifer was welcomed into the world by her parents, four grandparents, and
countless aunts, uncles, and cousins. Some of them are still alive to this day.
She spent many a summer frolicking about the north woods with her
extended family. She loved to swim and had to be dragged out of the water
kicking and screaming at mealtimes. But that was last year. We’re getting
ahead of ourselves.
When she wasn’t turning pruney in the water, Jennifer loved to read. She’d
read anything she could get her hands on. When she was in eighth grade, her
mother told Jennifer, “You’re smarter than I am.” Jennifer knew
better than to say, “I know.” She simply kept quiet while listening to the
remainder of the lecture.
Jennifer’s family moved around during her school years, so Jennifer had to
make new friends more often than she'd have liked. There aren’t many people
who have known Jennifer her whole life. She prefers it that way. People
shouldn’t know too much.
Which brings us to the end of the biographical portion of our page.
Awards and Accomplishments
Jennifer is a world-renowned writer. She has at least one reader in Australia
and another in Hong Kong, which clearly makes her an international
sensation. She has also won awards:
4th grade spelling bee champion
5th grade spelling bee champion
6th grade Citizenship Award
Free Time
In her free time, Jennifer likes to lie in bed and stare at the ceiling for hours.
Sometimes she drools, but only a little.
FAQ
Why do you have the word "Jew" at the bottom of your posts?
This post should explain things.
Where did you go to school?
I studied history and anthropology at the University of Iowa. Oddly, I took
a lot of Japanese courses, but I theoretically have the most knowledge about
American and Medieval European history.
Why are you a big, stinking, revisionist historian?
Well, I'm not, but I am open to the idea that history is not written in stone.
"Spin" happens...and sometimes the public doesn't get to see source documents
until many years after the fact. History is fascinating because we're always uncovering
new information.
Will you marry me?
Strangely enough, this is a real FAQ...but not one of you has actually come up with a ring yet.
