I don't like things that burrow

About Me

Ok, so I stole this idea from NPR: I believe in compassion for every human being, animal, and the earth. I believe in treating people BETTER than you want to be treated. I believe in treating strangers like old friends. I believe friends and family should be more important than personal pleasures. I do not believe in "hooking up." I do not believe in looking for love in a bar or a club. I do not believe in random sex. I believe in monogamy. I believe that gay rights are collectively a civil rights issue. I believe that dogs can be your best friends when you need someone. I believe in science AND spirituality. I believe that science can be as creative as music and art. I believe in exercise. I believe in splurging with a huge pizza and ice cream. I believe Bell's Oberon is the best beer ever! I believe being outside is good for the soul. I believe music is good for the soul. I believe what makes you a "man" is how you treat others. I believe in lending a helping hand to someone who needs it. I believe that people come into your life for a reason. I believe in laughing so hard that your stomach cramps up. I believe in serious conversations. I believe that I'm addicted to Diet Mountain Dew. I believe in working hard and playing hard. I believe that "emo" is not what it originally was and is now a hoax. I believe that Sunny Day Real Estate was the best band ever. I believe in having a glass of wine and listening to sappy music. I believe in partying. And I believe in Frodo.

I'd like to meet:

Stewie Griffin and my Doppelgaenger.Anyone who is interested in taking down this right-wing extremist ideology that seems to rule our country (jeez, I sound jaded and bitter!), Jesus, the Virgin Mary, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Ghandi, Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Bill Hicks, Jeremy Enigk of Sunny Day Real Estate fame, Mark Kozelek, Christopher Walkin, the person who invented invisible tape (I mean, really...who would have thought up such a thing?)

Music:

Nope, not gonna list bands here. I primarily listen to indie-rock, a little hip-hop, a little hardcore and punk, etc. The only thing I won't listen to is gangster rap or sappy country.

Listened to today: Rogue Wave, Her Space Holiday, The Anniversary, and Iron and Wine

Movies:

Not gonna list movies here, either. I'll watch anything. I can only watch scary movies if other people are with me (yes, I'm a wussy).

Television:

Ok, I have to change this thing now that I have cable. Discovery Channel is pretty much my default. I'm addicted to MythBusters (I think I'm going to assassinate one of them so I can take his job). I'm also a huge fan of Food Network, Comedy Central, and the History Channel.

Books:

Anything by Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, etc. Sometimes novels. Books about spirituality, God, religion, chemistry, etc. Not much time for reading for fun, really.

Heroes:

My dad, my mom, and my sister, who have all survived incredible odds. My best friend, Kinny, who is the most giving person I've ever known in my life. Jesus, MLK, Ghandi, Tecumseh, Little Turtle, and any revolutionary.

Death and love

After experiencing a recent barrage of death and other losses, I've finally realized how precious life and relationships are.   Why the hell do we not say "I love you" more often, whether it...
