So in the second installment of the Meet the Polycarpers! series, I present to you Terry. I know from experience that Terry enjoys a good pulled pork sandwich, Volvo's, sensitive touchy-feely acoustic guitar musicians and taking photos. He also is very skilled in touching the computer.
Without further ado;

It just so happens that I read quite frequently from Augustine's confessions too. (I have a copy in my bathroom.)
I don't know about all you guys reading about someone else's confessions... How 21rst century tabloid fixated are we...?
Next we'll be reading "Dirty secrets between Athanasius and Antony"
If you want some real dirt you should read about Abelaard and Heloise - Scandalous! Plus it's a real tear-jerker!
Just as long as you're not reading confessions of St.Aguilera
