SF Marathon

In that same year I lost 90 pounds thanks to nutritionist Amie....

Abdera++
I’m now an Abdera committer. The PMC showed suspect judgment in awarding me this honor based only on a handful of small patches I submitted for the server subproject.

I don’t look this bad, and this guy had about 4 times as much weight to lose as I did, but I’ll be undergoing the same procedure and will have much the same scars. Gross! Seems to have paid off for him in the end though.
