I edit WikiPedia just for fun -- "Weird Al" Yankovic[edit]

No, seriously, I don't edit wiki's much. My edits were an attempt to keep the page fresh, as Owen is no longer at ValleyWag. I could add some stories about Owen's childhood, but citing a verifiable source might be tough. ("cite anecdotal recollections?"). Happypete (talk) 10:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
