I like bubble tea.

I have a very expressive face.
You wouldn't believe me anyway....
as much as I want to deny it, I would like to be a backup singer for Beaver Avenue - FULL TIME
do you like the Band? If not, then you should
Internal martial arts, Tianlong Dao, Iyengar yoga, Forrest Yoga. I occasionally moonlight as backup singer/promoter for the band Beaver Avenue. Hunter S Thompson turned me on to politics, so I like to track city, state and national news. He also instilled a politics bullshit meter in me, so I tend to find both major parties in this country to be overrun by special interest subservient, narrow minded manipulators. I read my free-with-public-radio-membership issues of Newsweek and watch BBC news. YES! I am an equalist (ever heard of it?). I like hiking, chemistry, summiting mountains, traveling, reading books about stuff I don't know, reading books about fun stuff like historical fiction. I engage in movie snobbery, refinement, hesychasm, teaching, riding my bike around philly and menacing cars with it, surfing, boogie boarding. I like to be able to hide my tattoos so NO ONE knows. good times.
people who are all about me.

I don't actually like to watch LOST on TV either - too many commercials. In fact, commercials are the devil and who ever thinks that TV is good with them has some serious rethinking to do. the negative effect of commercials has been known for many years bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.
