Personality Traits

Romer is somewhat of a pseudo-intellectual, yet thoughtful and eager to help around the house, or to listen to you talk about your day. He’s reasonably baggage-free, but sometimes spaces out for hours on end. Romer prefers to keep the little problems he has to himself. He eats like a bird, in the sense that he leaves crumbs everywhere. He likes getting out of the house once in a while.

Bing is an articulated and poeseable TIG welded Proteus class robot. Serial Number B195120131.

As you can see, he’s quite spry.

I’m often reminded of how positive and Friendly the Boston Area really is, despite it’s cold reputation. I know Brent because I pester him at Bob Slate Stationary in Porter Square. Everyone in the store I have come into contact with has been friendly and sharp as a tack.  Many have come in support to my art openings. Last time I was in getting refills for my wacky DIY pen, Brent informed me that his of his son Daniel’s Skunk-inspired robot CEM (Computer Enhanced Machine). Here are the two favorite pics he sent. Note the resemblance!
