Contributor Bio
Info
Bio: Contrary to popular speculation, Jeff was not raised by wolves, salamanders or chimpanzees, but his exact origins do remain a mystery, and the wilds of British Columbia have been used in reference to these events (of course so have strange flashing lights in the sky; the disappearance of Mrs. Taylor's cow, Eunice, and sightings of an odd spherical object, though none of this has been confirmed by credible sources). Despite being Canadian, he is NOT married to Shania Twain. He does not know John, Mike or Alice from Canada either. He lives on a 20-acre estate in central B.C., which he won as a prize in a bowling tournament. He averages a 65 when playing golf, but does better on the second hole. His favorite passtime is croquet, since, unlike golf, the balls aren't as easily lost in the snow. Jeff spends most of his time tending chickens or underwater with his fish, but surfaces occasionally if hockey is on.
Little known facts: (some of which are even true) Saw Star Wars over 30 times in the theater. Performed with the Royal Canadian Ballet. Hates creamed corn. Is an avid gardener. Is a former astronaut. Has a sheep named after him (despite any resemblance, he is NOT the father!)

Favorite dOc reviewer: Mark Zimmer. Anyone who builds a website for the dude who wrote the theme to Zardoz is alright in my book.
