******************** TO ALL OF MY POTENTIAL NEW FRIENDS ********************** I appreciate dearly your interest in connecting with me on MySpace. When doing so, especially if you are a band, I would love for you to write me a brief mail message as to why you wish to connect or what resonated with you about my profile. After all, a friendship requires that we interact, no? :) I love meeting new people and being exposed to new things. Life is so interesting- let's share it together! ************************************************************ ***************** I'M CALLING ALL CREATORS IN THE MOVEMENT/ IT'S TIME TO OFFER A SOLUTION/ TO THE DILUTION OF WHAT WE LOVE. -Esthero, "We R in Need of a Musical Revolution". ************************************************************ ***************** This is a rallying cry to all artists, poets, musicians, actors, directors, dancers, photographers, writers, singers, songwriters, and all who believe we can make the world better with creativity, positivity, and passion - let's get together and use our skills to make people more health/enviro/and socially conscious. I want to meet people who are passionate, kind, open-minded, and love to laugh. People in touch with their mind and body. People who are self-aware, have direction/goals, and work to make them a reality. People who are unselfish. People who are artistic yet grounded. People who work to make change where they see problems in the world, but who are not dogmatic or militant. People who possess a poetic and romantic streak. People who exude happiness, and have a positive attitude about life. In the words of Charles Bukowski, "What matters most is how well you walk through the fire".

Most t.v programming is atrocious. I enjoy the Discovery channel, The Learning Channel, select Bravo programming, and am addicted to The Documentary Channel. That being said, there is always room in one's life for a healthy dose of fluff- I absolutely adore Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I know, I know, don't laugh.

My favourite playwrights include (and once again, are not limited to): Shakespeare, George F. Walker, Daniel MacIvor, Sophocles, Euripides, Aeschylus, George Bernard Shaw, Oscar Wilde, Alfred Jarry, Friedrich Durrenmat, Jean Genet, Harold Pinter, Eugene Ionesco, Tony Cushner, August Strindberg, Maria Irene Fornes, Judith Thompson.
