About brandonbarr
After a long hiatus (I was active in version 1 of epinions but not so much after the redesign), I've started epinionating again. I'm getting married this summer, so expect many of my reviews to be centered on household items. I love cooking and wine, and having extensive experience in both, as I've spent almost 10 years in the restaurant industry working as a fine dining waiter and bartender. I may include some more reviews of books and CDs, but I will only do so as I have time: studying for my Ph.D. exams and helping plan our wedding are my first priority. I maintain more frequently updated writing--generally focused on digital art and poetics--on my blog: http://texturl.net/.
