In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary.

About Me

Like every one else, I decided to submit to this myspace thing on the suggestion of a friend. I don't want to have 300 "friends" that I never even talk to though...I have many interests and I like people who like to try new things and are easy going. I enjoy a lot of different activities, like roller skating to old school disco and R&B, camping in the desert, backpacking, hiking mountains, biking to the beach, pinching the heads off of various household spiders, going out to eat, live music, the cinema, museums, plays, Scrabble, Cranium, chasing cats around the living room, break dancing, going to the casino to play bingo, playing tennis, miniature golf, cooking, good coffee, TRAVELING (one of life's biggest pleasures!), watching dvds on the couch, browsing around at a bookstore, eating bananas, tunafish out of the can, free movies at the downtown library, kicking rocks in the street, going to amusement parks, watching people in airports, reading books, crossword puzzles, trying something for the first time, and just doing absolutely nothing at all. These are just a few things that come to mind.I would like to meet people who are educated, fun, and warm. I like people who use turn signals. I don't want to meet ethnocentric people. If you have a "God Bless America" sticker on your car then we are most likely not going to click. If you like to sit and watch sports on tv, or go to a bar and do the same, then we are probably not going to click either. And ideally you would have the capacity to think abstractly! And I would hope that you are open-minded. And if you hate cops and parking enforcement officers like me, then that's even better!!...

you must make a friend of horror

War?  Who among us has the real passion to kill?  When it comes down to destroying an "enemy" that has no face?  Is the United States passionate enough about killing and destroying with...

it drips a discordant melody from my bleeding ears

"I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor. That's my dream. That's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight... razor... and surviving."
