T.M. Lindsey is a full-time high school English teacher in Iowa City, where he has lived since 1989 - minus a two-year hiatus in southern Oregon. Born in Des Moines, T.M.'s Iowa sojourn took a detour through Colorado Springs during his high school years. Upon graduation, he served two years active duty in the Army and was stationed in Germany. T.M. attended the University of Iowa before beginning his teaching career and moonlighting a bit as a political satirist for his blogs: Nussle and Flow, Iowa Vets Blog, and Political Fallout.
