About me
I chose my username because I am a
Utah fan, and I lived in
Washington, D.C. when I registered for Wikipedia.
Now I have graduated from law school and am back in
Salt Lake City, but I kept my original username.
I am active in
WikiProject College football. I also enjoy welcoming newcomers as well as reverting vandalism, which I find therapeutic.
I love
barnstars. I have four so far, but always appreciate more. So if I've done something you think is worthy of recognition, show some
WikiLove and award me one on my
talk page, okay?
I endorse more pictures and visual media on Wikipedia. To that end, I put the picture of the day on my profile page to raise awareness of the power of visual media.
Bistorta officinalis, also known as he common bistort, is a species of
flowering plant in the dock family
Polygonaceae. It is native to Europe and northern and western Asia, but has also been cultivated and become naturalized in other parts of the world such as in the United States. It is typically found growing in moist meadows, nutrient-rich wooded swamps, forest edges, wetlands, parks, gardens and disturbed ground. A herbaceous
perennial, it grows to a height of 20 to 80 centimetres (8 to 31 inches). It blooms from late spring into autumn, producing tall, erect, unbranched and hairless stems ending in single terminal
racemes that are club-like spikes, 5 to 7 centimetres (2 to 3 inches) long, of rose-pink flowers. This B. officinalisinflorescence was photographed in the
Austrian Alps.Photograph credit:

Great work on your edits to
Holy War (Utah vs. BYU). You did a good job of making balanced edits to an article that sees some very partisan and biased edits. I tried to find a 'Keeping It Real' barnstar, but I don't think there is one. So thanks for not letting your own views get in the way of writing a fair and complete article.
