About Me

after many occasions of procrastination im finally gettin down 2 doin this. if i wote an essay of who i am it would be a wasted effort because no one reads ur shit if its long...so ill keep it simple , i m a laid back dude with a positive attitude along with a cynical mind and the key to me is the duplicity in my nature.. i guess thats not sayin much considering thats pretty much every1 in the world!i guess u jus gotta get 2 know me.

I'd like to meet:

i guess this is the part where i say something cliche like 'interesting people, GSOH, and can string together a sentence'.... this really feels like one those personal ads in local newspapers...' must enjoy movies and long walks yada yada yada'..... so cheesy....jus cool ppl i guess.

Music:

i guess the genres im drawn to the most is soul and hip hop. the artists i listen to range from d'angelo to dead prez to nina simone to red hot chilli peppers to salif keita to miles davis to ibrahim ferrer to blur to natsha atlas to mars volta to coldplay to the roots to raphael saadiq to fela and femi kuti to damien rice to tupac to nas to clipse to little brother to slum village sergio mendes.... right now im hooked on the anthony david and clipse albums....guilty pleasure...jack johnson(i mean the cat plays a ukelele..oh well)Check out my jukebox...paste this link to see the videos on my list.http://www.dailymotion.com/widget/jukebox?list[]=%2Fboo kmarks%2Fsoulpower84&skin=glossyblack

Movies:

this is even harder....i like a twisted mind in movies so i guess david lynch movies would be an obvious choice ..only he still hasnt made a memorable movie (and i have seen blue velvet. add to that mulholland drive is way 2 wacky)..... i always have differnt favorites at different times.. right now its do the right thing, fight club , crash,to kill a mocking bird, double indemnity, miller's crossing,unforgiven,the big lebowski, training day, cidade de deus ,la haine(who said it had to be one)guilty pleasure....dont be a menace...

Television:

it was csi 4 a long time..now house md holds that fickle crown. i like huff,lost,24,the daily show and colbert report,curb your enthusiasm, the brak show(every1 has 2 watch this) samurai jack, robot chicken, the boondocks,family guy , seinfeld, boston legal, heroes,my name is earl,studio 60 ,and my guilty pleasure is ....macgyver ( i'll add more when i think of more)

Books:

Things fall Apart by Chinua Achebe. very few books can claim to change my perspective on an issue and this was certainly one of them. The Metamorphisis by Franz Kafka, The Alchemist by Paul Coelho and not to mention trusty ole Grisham...ive read every book. I just finished reading Love in the time of cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez absolutely unconventionally touching.

Heroes:

malcolm x... 4 always being true 2 himself no matter what people thought and his conviction
