I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

"Ignorance of impermanence generates illusions, attachments, and therefore suffering." from the Book of Mary Magdalene, interpreted by Jean-Yves LeLoup, READ IT!! YES THIS IS ME, check out UIPhotos, taken by Harold.I am a creative person and choose to use any medium that suites my mood. I have been known to use paint, charcoal, and film. I want to catch a persons attention, to have them stop and take a minute to look at my photos or paintings no matter what reaction or response come from their minds. Do as Bob Barker says "Please spay and neuter your cats and dogs." Over population is a problem in our society, with both humans and pets, however we cannot enforce human breeders into sterilization. But we can keep cats and dogs from having to be put down later after they have been born.

Music:

I love music. I will not elaborate due to some peoples small brained ways of looking at or listening to certain music. I will only say that "I LOVE MUSIC" But i do not listen to just any shit on the radio either.

Movies:

I am usually the one that has already read the book first. But I totally love a great comedy and action movies, and I am a Jet Li fan.

Books:

I read and read and read. As of right now I am reading 5 totally different books at the same time. I love Edward Abbey. "A Fool's Progress" is probably one of the best Honest Novels ever written. Read It!! I love any book written by Bill Bryson. I highly recommend "A Short History of Nearly Everything".
