I'm a temporary visitor to the planet Earth.  I'm not quite sure how I got here but it seems like a nice place.  I like these things called books and movies and rock and roll and long walks on the beach and candlelight dinners.  Oh, and ninjas.  

If I could be anything, I suppose I'd be a gummy bear, because why the heck not?  They're cute and tasty and they get to hang out in packages with others of their kind.  I bet it's like a big old gummy bear party all the time in there.  

But seriously I'd be a tiger that could fly because that would be awesome.
