======Burton K Wheeler====== //formerly The Bald Imposter// To quote [[Dave Howery]]: Burton K. Wheeler is a liar. [S]he lies all the time. [S]he especially lies on the subject of gender and sexual preference. When [s]he posts, automatically assume [s]he's lying. The only time [s]he doesn't lie is when [s]he says that [s]he lies all the time. And [s]he never says that, so, for all practical purposes, [s]he lies all the time. Burton K Wheeler can bend steel with the power of his mind. Burton K Wheeler turned [[Fellatio Nelson]] straight. Burton K Wheeler is feared by wrongdoers and [[offtopic:baldianism|loved]] by the weak. [[offtopic:the bald imposter|Kayla]] luvs [[offtopic:elle-jay|Dylan]] 4EVA!!! Also apparently a Rapist Dolphin.

Baldie himself, of course, is associated with the :mad: smiley. ====Actual Alternate History contributions==== The Bald Imposter has started and abandoned after one post some of the Board's most ambitious and fascinating timelines. [[timelines:A Most Fortunate Arrow]] (POD: Gracchus the Elder is killed fighting Iberian rebels in 150 B.C.) featured reformed Roman Republic that made Carthage a vassal, a New Alexandrian Empire, and ethnic shuffling that would put [[offtopic:Thermopylae]] to shame. This TL is still active, and "very intensive research" is to blame for the fact that it hasn't been updated since mid-2006. [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=65928|The Danelaw of Britain]] (POD: Alfred of Wessex is defeated by the Great Heathen Army in 870 A.D.) Collaborated with frequent partner in crime [[offtopic:Haggis]] in the development of [[timelines:Vincent Votes]] (POD: Free blacks in Haiti are allowed to vote in 1790). This TL is also undergoing "very intensive research) Wrote a short fiction piece called [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=55784|A Matter of Titles]], which was widely hailed as hilarious and brilliant. Asks about the Volga Germans in any TL with a POD between 1763 and 1941. Err...that's about it, really. ==== AH.com Politics ==== Baldie is a member of the [[offtopic:Keep Everything The Way It Was Before Party]] and is one of their MPs.
