From the Desk of Puer Aeternus

Puer aeternus is Latin for eternal boy, used in mythology to designate a child-god who is forever young; psychologically it refers to an older man whose emotional life has remained at an adolescent level. The puer typically leads a provisional life, due to the fear of being caught in a situation from which it might not be possible to escape. He covets independence and freedom, chafes at boundaries and limits, and tends to find any restriction intolerable.

That pretty much sums me up. My name is Paddy Foran. I write software, give talks, study English, and generally refuse to grow up. This is what I do when I should be doing other things.
