Sometimes Dan Rules the Realm

About Me

Dan DeMuroI am currently sucked into the rat race waiting to be spit back out. I miss daylight...But i dont miss being completely broke. So i geuss everything evens out... You can work hard and live lavishly, or Not work and be a bum, Or find a happy medium... I would have to say i am stuck on "mediums". In the end its all the same... I think we cause of alot of unneccesary suffering for ourselves...I am always searching for Real things, In people, music, movies, food... Everything should be organic and that goes way beyound food, Theres too much pressure on people and that modifies what would be their FREE selves... Many people understand this, live it and love...Those are free people...

My Interests

Reading, Drinking,anything Really.. Surfing although i havent gone out since april.. I meditate once in a while, although not as much as i should. I sometimes do yoga, although not as much as i should.I am interested in spirituality without being religous. I like buddhism the most though. I wouldnt consider myself materialistic, although im not completely withdrawn from material things.I love Food... Im a vegetarian, and i eat really healthy and tasty foods... I also love to cook...

I'd like to meet:

"; I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

Music:

I have a very ecletic taste in music. For the most part i tend to listen to positive upbeat music, i have a thing for Lo Fi music, and my roots are in punk rock. Alot of people at one point have the misconception that Music or other things dictate how a person is... Ive gotten over that along time ago, and dont make any generalizations ... I love raggae influenced music, and i can get down with music thats in other languages if it has a good beat.Jack Johnson, G Love, Modest Mouse, Moe, Pavement, The arcade fire, the doves, the dandy warhols, jimmy buffet, enya, Enigma, Pepper, 311, 311 and 311, The beautiful girls, Chemical Brothers

Movies:

At one point i really wanted to go to film school. I have lost my passion for movies, but i feel its is back on the upswing... I like alot of indepent films, films that make you think , although you technically can analize any film and come up with theories... I love comedy of all sorts....I do not own any DVD's except for Surf or skate videos...

Television:

I have an issue with television, but i dont completely despise it, Television has potential. I get down with some shows, i find myself watching HGTV alot

Books:

Reading is a good book can be very therapeutic. I have a tendency to endulge so much in a book that i accomplish nothing else, and end up finishing like 400 pages in a few days... Ive read alot of Tom Robbins books lately, all very very good... Another Roadside Attraction Villa Incognito, Skinny Legs and All , Even Cowgirls get the blues, Half Asleep in Frogs Pajamas... jitterbug perfume still life with woodpecker fierce invalids from hot climatesTom Robbins is by far the greatest writer i have encountered..Although i read other stuff too.... Malcom Gladwell Blink, The Tipping pointFreakanomics is pretty rad..I read alot about Zen, Buddhism, Tibet and the Dalai Lhama.I am always reading something.

Heroes:

All the Dharma Bums out thereMe when i was a mere sperm, facing odds greater than i would ever face again (i think)....5 billion to one baby!!!! Were all winners...

My Blog

Whose Blog is it anyway

I am just amazed at home much I have avoided Myspace, and Blogging.. Sometimes its good to surrender, especially when your putting up a fight or avoiding something for no real good reason... Like ive ...
