Default All about me???

... So... I get this email from my boss about a bio we need to create for our business.

Being the giant smart ass I am, I sent this to him as my "bio"

Quote:
Eric (redacted for privacy) is a widely traveled world philanthropist. Many would say he’s more charity than actual man. He spent the majority of his life as an Army Ranger and retired from active duty after 43 years in the service. He did a brief stint as a secret operative in the CIA, but that’s classified. A global jet setter, he is probably most well known for his accurate and often heralded movie critiques which he freely gives away with no expectation of payment in return. He also has been quoted numerous times in the Journal of Internal medicine for his ability to feel another persons’ aura and discuss in depth the ailments of the patient with said apparition. Mr. (redacted for privacy) excels at Jai Alai, dazzling his opponents. He has been known to play left handed because he just “wants to make it interesting” for himself. Known as the Bobby Fischer of checkers Mr. (redacted for privacy) spends his down time in his Manhattan loft, he is a man of leisure and often laments that “[he] could have done more” in his short time on earth.

From one smart arse to another, never start a sentence with a preposition.

It's actually a conjunction. Specifically speaking, a coordinating conjunction...

I did use to be an editor.
