That's like saying that an actor can manipulate their emotions on command is a sign of sanity

About Me

I'm a Temple U. student majoring in Psychology and I work in a developmental lab. Currently working at a Radioshack and in my spare time I play the bass and elec. guitar. Family and friends are important to me. I read often, anything from history books to classic lit. Other than that I like to enjoy life to it's fullest extent. I have a very sweetheart of a girlfriend and she bribed me with Hostess treats."A hundred years from now it is very likely that [of Twain's works] "The Jumping Frog" alone will be remembered." -- Harry Thurston Peck"Some guys take a long vacation to throw a ring into a volcano.""A man was reading The Canterbury Tales one Saturday morning, when his wife asked "What have you got there?" Replied he, "Just my cup and Chaucer.""After all, all he did was string together a lot of old, well-known quotations. -- H.L. Mencken, on Shakespeare""And do you think (fop that I am) that I could be the Scarlet Pumpernickel?".. MeMyspaceAndI.com

My Interests

Playing/listening to music, cooking, reading, psychology, exercising and being healthy, spending time with friends and family, hiking, anything dealing with nature really. Also running through Philly in the rain coming back from a movie, one of the best times ever

I'd like to meet:

George Harrison but that is unlikely to happen. People I'd like to meet are in books or are about a thousand years old. *yes I love classic lit.

Music:

A lot...what can I write everyone else just lists and lists bands...if you really want to know just ask me

Movies:

The Shawshank Redemption (if you haven't seen it, punish yourself), Sin City (artistically great), the Oh! in Ohio! (indie rocks) The Chronicles of Riddick (because deep down I am a geek), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (childhood favorite) The Punisher (because I wish I was that buff) House of Flying Daggers (Japanese culture = awesome-ness)

Television:

FRIENDS, Seinfeld, Family Guy, and old school Nickelodeon (rocko's modern life, ren & stimpy, salute your shorts all the great ones!) Basically what everyone else watches, oh and those wife swapping shows

Books:

Anything by "Travian" or James Joyce. Throw in a little Milton and a dab of Hawthorne and there you go!

Heroes:

The Beatles, John Adams, My Dad, Dali, John Rzeznik...just not Dr. Phil
adopt your own virtual pet!

Amusing

HEADLINE:China surpasses the US as the world's top carbon producer, making the problem real to conservatives and no longer interesting to liberals.

Is it? Or isn’t it?
