Dylan Callens came up with the core idea for Operation Cosmic Teapot
while in university.  Back then, he was writing a terrible, terrible
book with no discernible plot and characters that were flatter than
stick figures on a piece of paper.  From that travesty; however, the
image of God being unable to perform his duties as a result of too much
paperwork, stuck in his mind.  Years later, he imagined Nietzsche as
God's boss.  Of course, Nietzsche desperately wanted to fire God because
of a lifelong grudge.

Only six years after that kernal, the book was popped.  Sure, it could
have been done in a year or two, but he is pretty lazy.  The point is,
Operation Cosmic Teapot was done.  Finally.

Other than that, Dylan grew up in Delhi, Ontario.  From a young age, he
was always interested in writing; however, in high school, his interests
were focused more towards music.  He dreamed of being famous in a heavy
metal band named Nothing Sacred.  Unfortunately, the band wasn't all
that good, so fame and fortune never transpired.

Afterwards, Dylan moved to Sudbury, Ontario to attend Laurentian
University.  While attending, he wrote for the university paper, Lambda,
as a columnist, then news editor.  He watched as the paper fell to shit
due to the brilliant decisions of an idiot edit-in-chief (not Norm, the
other guy!).  Because of that, he left to become the Program Director at
CKLU radio.  Somewhere in there, Dylan was able to graduate with a
degree in English and philosophy.

With such a heavy demand for philosophers in the workplace, Dylan
decided to attend teacher's college.  He found a job teaching in
Sudbury, where he continues to live with his family
