Quirks: A tendency to tell stories — some of which have a peculiarly risqué sort of flavor for someone who looks like your GRANDPA
Short Biography:
I was raised in Paris, but you are not allowed to hold that against me. If I would not let the Royal Academy of England hold it against me, I certainly will not be well inclined to it from an upstart colonist. My doctoral education was completed at Oxford, and I rotated on the National Health Service (NHS) for well over twenty years, as a physician, pathologist, and coroner/examiner, as well as doing primary and translational research into cellular and genetic anomalies related to infectious disease.
In January 2012, I was offered an appointment as a Visiting Surgeon at Bethesda Naval Hospital, with a dual appointment with Naval Criminal Investigations (NCIS) as a specialist coroner and pathologist. I served for almost a year, sitting on the Coroner’s Board of Inquiry at Bethesda.
I was working on an investigation in tandem with USAMRID and the Centers for Disease Control, regarding a half a dozen peculiar biological deaths on an aircraft carrier stationed off the coast of North Carolina, when everything went all “pots-to-the-head”, and I found myself being held as a “potentially hostile non-combantant” of all things. Absurd.
My extrication from the rubble came at the hands of one Lieutenant Commander Abigail Gibbs — an upstart resident with more talent than she is often given credit for, and more hubris than a young lady should afford herself. Of course, that being said, the four times that she has appeared before the Coroner’s Board of Inquiry for Morbidity and Mortality Conference, I have been unable to find fault with either her logic or her practice of medicine, so perhaps the hubris is well justified… I still think that it should be shown a tad less, but she -did- get me out of that bombed out building.
She is also quite the magnet for adventure. Did I tell you about the time mother and I decided to take a safari in Africa? Oh… My apologies, yes.. how did I get here… Well, as I was saying, our Dr. Gibbs is quite the magnet for adventure. I have, however, had the distinct pleasure of playing in a laboratory again, and dissecting cadavers, and on that count, I am afraid that I cannot be too terribly incensed with the rather messy situations in which we’ve found ourselves over the past couple of years. I would, however, give my right big toenail and maybe half the foot for a decent cup of tea and a glass of wine with supper.
