I have all of my appendages. This makes me pretty happy. Most of the time I can walk upright, also a plus.

Anyone that can motivate, educate, challenge, or just relax and enjoy life with me. Anyone that can keep my attention, make me laugh and laugh with me. Easy going people, fellow insomniacs/crazy bastards, people with ambition/ideas, people that are into learning about other people instead of themselves and people that do more than go with life. Anyone that ever had the passing thought that a bed sheet would make an excellent cape...
***The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?***

I cannot remember the last time I intentionally sat down to watch something on tv. If I do it would be NIP/TUCK, SEX IN THE CITY dvds, The Office(UK/US), Scrubs, SPORTS (if I can't go to the games), boxing, stand-up comedy, the history chnl and other dorky shows, the simpsons, family guy, and king of the hill. You'll never catch me watching soaps or Maury type shows.
I like to read, I like information, =nerd. I am always reading 2 or 3 books at a time. But I am done listing stuff. Music mags also! PORN count? We all still like picture books, admit it!
I will always admire various people in my life. I think even if you do not agree with someones lifestyle, you can always learn something from them. In general it is all about respect. My mom is pretty sweet also.
