My frontal insula is bigger than yours

About Me

Brief is always too brief. I'm a freak, a nutty, wacky kind of guy who you'll never trust unless you trust yourself. Don't let my dry sense of humor turn you off, if you didn't get the joke, it wasn't meant for you to hear. That can be good or bad, depending on my mood.

music, books, politics, intellectual pursuits, laughing, philosophy, sociology, anarchy

I'd like to meet:

Intell-uh-gent folk who can carry on a conversation about the horrible things wrong with society, creative types who dream dreams of how to change all the inequities of life and today's society, and anyone who cares about the downtrodden, disadvantaged, and dumb-idiots that run our government and/or are run over by it.
