Deathbunny (DB) is a midlife college student pursuing degrees in Psychology and Anthropology who somehow managed to acquire 20-odd credit hours in Biology another 4 in Human Pathophysiology.

His dream job is to study human behavior and extrapolate future trends from the perspectives of Evolutionary Psychology and Physcial Anthropology. (Or become a novelist who writes scientific articles on the side.)

In his daily life he is a simple, somewhat lazy college student who volunteers for minimum wage as an instructional assistant for other students in a computer lab.

DB's other interests include the design and use of small arms, science fiction, writing science fiction, and adding to his extensive collection of semi-obscure books, magazines, and pamphlets for later use "in his writing."

His one (current) claim to online immortality is being quoted by Salon.com in an article on Danial Jackson of Stargate fame as saying "You miss his appeal. From listening to the female-types around here, he has one of the most appealing of attributes in a non-significant-other person: A cute guy that needs mothering. Because of it, he's a babe-magnet and therefore it's taboo to rag on him." (http://dir.salon.com/story/ent/feature/2002/02/13/stargate_rebellion/index.html?pn=2).

Deathbunny is a bastard from a long line of bastardry whose recent antecedents have dodged the genetic bullets of Marfan's syndrome, insanity, respiratory problems, and flat feet to grant DB and his children with Scottish surnames and no major health issues except a tendency to be heavy and a bit nearsighted.

Deathbunny was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona and was a lackluster student as a child and teen being bored easily and graduating high school after 5 years with a 1.97 GPA.

One key factor to this apparent sign of stupidity was a mother who liked to compare her childrens' progress out loud and as a means of "motivation". When taken with DB's philosophy of fighting only winning battles when possible, DB's total lack of competitiveness in the academic field is quite understandable.

Deathbunny served both in the Arizona Army National Guard--enlisting at age 17 and attending US Army Basic Combat Training while in high school--and the US Army with a total length of service of 7 years and 8 months. Promoted exactly once, from Private First Class to Specialist, his service was characterized by an excellence in his mission performance and a lack of effort in uniform wear and appearance that, nonetheless, resulted in his attendance of the US Army Primary Leadership Development Course and several awards including 3 Letters of Achievement from LTC's and above, two Army Achievement Medals, A Good Conduct Medal, and the prestigious Expert Field Medical Badge along with the noteriety of being the only line medic in his unit(s) to qualify with the M9 Pistol, M16A1, M16A2, M249 SAW, M60 GPMG, M203 GL, Hand Grenades, and fire in training the 155mm Howitzer, M2HB HMG, MK19 Mod 3 GMG, M220-series TOW missile, M136 AT4 MAW, and the M72A2 LAW. (Almost all while pulling range coverage.)

Despite being assigned to the 24th Infantry Division (Mechanized) while it was part of the XVIII Airborne Corps for a number of years, the only foriegn country Deathbunny has thus far been to has been flying over a corner of Canada to get to Alaska.

Alerted many times and never deployed, Deathbunny's combat experience is nil beyond training and reading a good book. Instead, he is very attentive to combat vets for their opinions on such subjects and does not try to portray himself as an expert on such things.

Deathbunny started college twice.

First, immediately after graduating high school, he attended a trade school to learn PC repair. Dropping out because his girlfriend at the time was putting out a lot and realizing that, despite being interested in computer programming and architecture, he wasn't interested in being a test-discard-replace jockey for life, DB ceased attending school to go into the Army.

Since then, the trade school went under, disappeared, and--beyond $2000 in student loans--allows DB to deny any knowledge of said excursion into collegiate education.

More recently, Deathbunny began attending a community college where he is one class from graduating with an Associate of Science with a GPA of 3.433 and is transferring to ASU in the Fall Semester. His only remaining lower division classes are 4 semesters of a foriegn language and a Psychology Research Methods class.

Beyond the military, Deathbunny's primary work has been in the field of termite control where he gained a reputation as a very knowledgeable individual, problem solver, and a damned good person to send to pissed off customers' homes.

Deathbunny has three of his own and two impending stepchildren, all very intelligent and ably supported in their pursuit of knowledge.
