Alexander Trouble was born in the year of first lunar landing, just in time to be there for the event. After that, he lived happily the first few years of his life, till he was sentenced for seventeen years of education. Sadly, even after release from educational facilities, he persisted in committing unsanctioned and unsupervised learning, regardless that it brought him nothing, but additional questions and thirst for more knowledge. Despite societies best efforts, he remained curious, addicted to reading, prone to asking questions and doubting in accepted pearls of wisdom. Alexander was always more attracted to animals than to people and animals were strangely attracted to him (sometimes as a meal). Reasons for that are unknown, but based on the fact that he could simultaneously pet the cat and the dog without anyone getting scratched, bitten or eaten, it is presumed that he himself should be classified as belonging to the animal kingdom and not a human at all. He probably could have been a rather good veterinarian, except pet owners would have had a big problem in claiming their pets back. Instead, he became an engineer and practiced dark arts of inventing and creating all sorts of stuff and was rewarded a fear amount of patents for that, although, he completely failed to invent Perpetuum Mobile or any other world upturning device. Still, illustrations to his more complex inventions have some moderate decorative value. He reached his lowest point by perpetrating to write some books, which is nearly as heinous a crime as inflicting folks music on innocent bystanders and should be punishable by some sort of medical intervention (possibly electric shock therapy) or at least mandatory wear of restricting shirt in the proximity of any writing implements, computers and smart, semi-smart and stupid devices.
