I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and

About Me

The day I was born the sun was having a rather boring day, and as it passed its zenith realized I was dawdling about joining reality, and as my mom was about to settle in to bad hospital food for lunch, the sun yelled down to me to get on with it. Well, you don't say no to the star your world revolves around and liking the idea of basking in sunlight - a pleasure which remains with me today - I popped out into the midwife's arms with a ray of brilliant sunlight falling upon my angelic head, from which I received my first freckles and bowed to the magnificence of life. My pirate name is: Captain Jenny Kidd Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr! Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.

Movies:

I always seem to like the movies no one else likes, either because they are too mainstream and people are ashamed to be so blase, or because they really aren't that good. Just poor taste on my part. Gotta have some kind of romance though. Favorites: Sliding Doors, Empire Records, The Storyteller series, and anything that really gets to me - making me happy, sad, angry, or want to change.

Books:

Still working on The Master and Margarita. Just finished Brightly Burning by Mercedes Lackey and about to start another Katie MacAlister. By the way, the Artemis Fowl series is kinda addicting... Favorites: The Brother Cadfael Mysteries by Ellis Peters and the Harry Potter Series. Oh, and a big Barrie fan.

Heroes:

My sister, Mayling Soong, Ching Shih (The most successful pirate EVER and is a 'she'- take that Edward Teach! Haa ha ha ha haaa), Eleanor Roosevelt, Ve Neill, Kevin Aucoin, aaannnnddddd Mae West
