I have an almost encyclopedic knowledge of fish from the atlantic basin, specifically in and around the south east US and Carribean.

It freaks people out sometimes when I just start reciting fish facts whenever the rare occasion this comes up.

It's from me living partially on a boat as a child and tearing through books about fish while dreaming of being a marine biologist until the cold hard reality of for-profit education hit me in my early adulthood.

What are your weird topics and skills?

    Please recommend me a 17th century pastoral opera in a Scots dialect. That's way too niche not to be cool.

      Well, it's technically early 18th century but in a 17th century style. The Gentle Shepard by Allan Ramsay, Father of Scottish poetry and of his namesake son, noted painter and Stuart supporter.
