I love ARCHITECTURE and the poetry of space. DANCE has always been an important part of my life. PHOTOGRAPHY is a huge passion. I love the superb craftsmanship of COUTURE. I appreciate good DESIGN, MUSIC, artistic and creative people. Young people. Old souls. I enjoy exploring broken parts of cities, WRITING, SINGING, spending time at the ocean and TRAVELING. I warmly embrace the internet and my 'virtual family.' I adore inspiring others to act with purpose, conviction and reverence. Most of all, I am grateful when people are kind to each other. It does make life on this earth a little piece of heaven.
I gravitate toward creative, inspired, gentle folks with a high level of commitment in so far as social and environmental issues are concerned. I like people who are aesthetic, poetic, musical, spiritual, culinary, binary, thrilled to be alive and employ good table manners. Whether we work together, or just share ideas, we can uplift each other which is a huge help all by itself.
I listen to allot of classical, jazz, roots and ethnic music. I especially love the sound of good voices, piano, oboe, cello, violin, mandolin, banjo, and percussion.

The news outlets are worthless, parasitic garbage mongers (although the BBC does get it right.) I loved WESTWING when it was on. I'm a sucker for DISCOVERY CHANNEL and GREY'S ANATOMY + CSI.
I keep a small part of an old New York law library, many books on business, economics, architecture, interior design, spirituality, books of poetry (I adore Rilke).......and the remnants of a private collection from a fellow San Franciscan who once headed the Proletarian Party there. Such titles as 'The Evolution of Property' + 'The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists' + 'The Theory Of The Leisure Class.'
People to whom the ideals of community, peace, the end of hunger and poverty are unquestionably worthwhile pursuits
