About Me

..I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

Oh.

I'd like to meet:

I like everyone I meet. i don't like online people as much. I'd like to meet people who'd like to meet me; but even more, i'd like to meet the people who'd rather NOT meet me. the latter offer more of a challenge, and too, can provide a better key to self-improvment -- if the latter is even possible. (i do not mean that i am beyond improving, but rather that the self cannot be improved: only refined.)

Music:

I am anti-iPod. Here is why: - ever-present music reduces one's ability to listen to music;
- the sound of the world is beautiful;
- the iPod is about ME and MY MUSIC; let's all agree that the ego is already out of control.
- MP3 compression sounds terrible -- future generations will not even know how good music can sound

Movies:

I like zombie movies. I also like older Japanese movies.

Television:

Battlestar Galactica. Other than that it is all through the much-distorted airwaves: TBS baseball and Family Guy; BBC news and the News Hour.

Books:

I am especially interested these days in cultural transmission in late antiquity.

Heroes:

You know.... they have always been cowboys.
