Voorhees, Haddonfield and I'm Still Looking for an Elm St.

About Me

I'm a 35 year old pop culture enthusiast. I bounce between NY and NJ. My Secret Hideout remains in Voorhees.Among my various talents, I can read tarot cards. I can practically recite any famous individuals sun sign. There's always a cartoon playing on my television and there's always a new (or old)movie, book or interesting piece of music to see or talk about and a roller coaster to ride.

You are The Magician

Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity.

Eleoquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing, you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.

The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them aloud. Reflecting this is the fact that the Magician is represented by Mercury. He represents the gift of tongues, a smooth talker, a salesman. Also clever with the slight of hand and a medicine man - either a real doctor or someone trying to sell you snake oil.

I'd like to meet:

The people in Voorhees are highly offended by my Stewie hoodie and it's hell getting directions in Cherry Hill, so I've decided that anyone who's not easily offended and, or someone who would roll down their window in the middle of the day to give a stranger directions. Props to you and yours, you are o.k. in my book;if you play video games, read comic books, possibly game, love computers, and you know your way around a blockbuster and the astrology/fantasy, science fiction isles in B&N or Borders; and you're not a total ass hat. Please...Write me, it'll be a blast and a half.
