A Little Bit About Me

[edit]

Baked is a minor contributor to the English Wikipedia. I have just started contributing to Wikipedia, I do not do it religiously, but when I see a problem or when I see a need for an article to be expanded. I have trivial knowledge on certain topics pertaining to different areas of life.

I enjoy reading comics, especially Peanuts and Dilbert.

I am also a big sports fan. I support the Los Angeles Lakers as well as the Los Angeles Dodgers. My other favorite teams are the Oakland Athletics, the San Jose Sharks and the newly revitalized San Jose Earthquakes.

Current Events

[edit]

I strongly support people's knowledge of current events. That is why I have supplied the largest headlines (which can also be found on Wikipedia's Main Page), and the picture of the day (which can as well be found on the Main Page).

Krishna's Butterball
Krishna's Butterball is a large granite balancing rock that rests on a short incline in the coastal resort town of Mamallapuram in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It is approximately six metres (20 ft) high and five metres (16 ft) wide, with a mass of around 250 tonnes. It is balanced on a slope on top of a 1.2-metre-high (4 ft) plinth that is a naturally eroded hill. Krishna's Butterball is part of the Group of Monuments at Mahabalipuram, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built during the 7th and 8th centuries as Hindu religious monuments by the Pallava dynasty. It is now a popular tourist attraction.Photograph credit: Timothy A. Gonsalves
