C. “Pancake” Turner is a disease-free, generally even-keeled graduate student who enjoys short nylon shorts, woodchucks, sleeping on public transportation, and writing lovelorn missives to Jenny Barringer. He splits his time between Austin, Texas, and the fires of Morgoth. He attempts to educate college students for a living, a vocation that is intellectually, if not fiscally, remunerative, and which leaves him plenty of time to fart around on the internet looking for shirtless photographs of Finnish track stars from the 1970s and 80s.

You can review his (now embarrassingly dated and wince-worthy) graduate student profile here. And you can poke your e-snout into his academic interests over here.
Feel free to add him as a contact on tumblr, flickr, and last.fm, if you’re as unfortunate enough to spend as much time in these places as he does.

Did you know that when people want to tease Frank Shorter, they tell him that he’s looking more and more like his statue near Folsom stadium?
