Acquired Taste

This is the livin'! The black american ideal!

About Me

What's to know?What is there to say? I am a self professed nerd. For the most part, I am a good natured, quiet, and unassuming Gemini (for those of you that know Gemini's really know what I'm talking about! LOL!).But on the other hand, I like to get out and and be seen as the situation warrants. My time is short here so I'm trying to see all of Maryland, Virgina, DC, as I can, possibly even Delaware, New Jerusalem, Philadelphia, and New York. So let's GO!

My Interests

Knowin me... it could be anything... width="425" height="350" ..

I'd like to meet:

My clone. A white me. A female me. An Asian me. The evil me from a parallel universe.You think my life is good? But Guess What? IT'S EVEN BETTER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE!!

Music:

I became more and more aggrevated by whats on the radio today until I found these radio stations and pod casts which I feel have some of the greatest playlists, community activism, political info, and just plain old education. Check it out:http://www.projectvibe.net http://www.wmal.com http://www.npr.org http://www.wpfw.org http://www.wamu.org http://whovfm.com http://www.wtop.com http://www.pandora.com http://www.nicktha1da.com

Movies:

Transformers the Movie/ Momento/ Full Metal Jacket, along with any other war or military movie/ Usual Suspects/ The Italian Job, Oceans 11&12 or any heist movie/ Casino, Scarface and any Mob movie/ Star Trek or any space movie

Television:

Lost/ Simpsons/ Futurama/ Robot Chicken/ Adult Swim/ CNN/ TBN/ VH-1 Soul/ The 700 Club/ Fox News/ Bloomberg Network/ MSNBC/ CSPAN/ Mad TV/ Conan O'Brian/ SNL

Heroes:

Anyone who gives of themselves looking for no reward. Anyone who works to find the true meaning of love. Anyone who puts off revenge and seeks forgiveness. Anyone who dares to look beyond whats in plain sight. Anyone who can laugh at themselves and take life as serious as only it needs to be. Anyone who has held the homeless, the sick, the dying, the impaired, the unwanted in their arms.
