Shakespeare Hates Your Emo Poems

About Me

.. .. ..I am a Graduate of The Ohio State University with a BA in Theatre. I love baseball. I am pretty much an easygoing person with an edgy side. I love all the arts and what they can do for a person. I have a big interest in French Cinema, especially the New Wave. If you want me to elaborate just ask and we can talk. Oh BTW-I am a horrible speller, so I will always have a ton of type-o's. I've just always been that way.Take the quiz:

My Interests

I love Baseball. I am passionate about Live Theatre. I hate Michigan. I have a deep interest in Shakespeare's England and the The English Restoration. I try to speak French. I have an Xbox 360 and love it. I like to play poker in casinos. I like most things Pop Culture. Oh and I also like NASCAR...yes I know...but I have always liked cars and racing...I just never really let anyone know about it.

I'd like to meet:

.. ..I could say anyone who wants to meet me...but how original is that? I have no idea who I'd like to meet besides lots of hot chicks and people willing to spend lots of money on me and people that will make me cool just by associating with them and people willing to just give me lots of money and hot girls in love (yes loverboy still sucks) and maybe a few people that can hold an inteligent conversation about the difference between Truffaut and Godard...and I am trying to make this the longets run-on sentence in the history of myspace but I am not sure I will accomplish the task because I am really running out of things to say and I am finding it hard to keep going because I have a thing for good grammar and I am not talking about Frasier although that was one of my favorite shows ever and I am sad it is gone but I now have Scrubs and they seemed to have not started the new season and I am sad because everyone needs a little bit of The Todd in their lives. Damn! I ended that great sentence. Self Five! (finger snap)
