He didn't either! Upon further discussion, Mark was told that he was the guy who could fix a computer problem or tell you what @nerdist thought of the Blackberry Pearl.

Then go out and play nine innings, hit the beach or catch a game with a hotdog and beer in-hand. He prefers "Well-Rounded," but "Lovable Dork" works too.
