Imagine growing up in a house where the CD player flips from Hendrix to 'Bye Bye Birdie' to 'Der Ring Das Nibelungen', where your parents are an ex-hippie turned lawyer and a musical director goddess, and where you and your younger brothers regularly indulge in alien-velociraptor impressions. With such perilous combinations, you're bound to come up with some odd results. Anna is the result of this unholy, nay, discombobulating union of influences.
As the lead singer and the webmaster of Rua's homepage, she's an acknowledged geek, who can pass as a Normal. Don't be fooled. She still owns and plays *gasp* an 8-bit NES. If you don't know what that is...sorry, you're a Normal.
Anna has a black and white kitty named Ramses, who is clearly a reincarnated cat god from ancient Egypt. He demands regular sacrifices of Kibbles 'n Bits and catnip-flavoured chocolates.
Anna knows only that she knows nothing...and that she should never write bios at two in the morning.

- The Hunger Site - This is the best and easiest way that I've found to help people, via the web. Just by clicking one button, the sponsors pay for a cup of food. Bookmark it andou can visit it once a day. Please do.
- Panayiotis "Pi" Spanos - an old friend of mine from Thessaloniki, Greece. Much better at math than I, but he still can't sing soprano. As a joke, he wrote this page, affectionately mocking the goddess of the hill(billies).
