Beliefs should not be reduced to bumperstickers

About Me

There is no summarization.I love dicussion. I love to argue. I love politics. I love not to argue. I love being in love.If I could change anything about the world - it would be to break down the social barriers of conversation & communication. I'd have folks discuss topics to their hearts content, in their language of choice.

My Interests

Participating in interesting activities; such as eating food and taking up space.I bike, study, sword fight, hike, and yell at my cats in my spare time. I'm pleased to announce that my attempts of boredom have failed.

I'd like to meet:

Jon Stewart - the world's only sane man.Jim Henson - if he were alive and thank him for about 40 minutes. then buy him a donut.And myself from the past and the future.

Music:

You know that sound of people being ran over with a car, when they don't know how to cross a street? (I'm not talking about AT a crosswalk, but LINGER in the street).Their noisy crunches make me happy.

Movies:

Station Agent and a handful of others. I really dislike seeing films in theatres. People talk, answer cell phones, if you want a decent seat to have to trip over people on the way out to use the restroom, the place is like a freezer. Dammit, I really hate movie theatres.

Television:

Daily Show, C-Span, House, Lost, Studio 60

Books:

Too many to list. Political theory books, Comic Books. Those are about all I read.

Heroes:

My Grandma.She's the only perfect person I know. My goal in my life is to be as good, as decent as this woman. She has been my inspiration when in doubt and my brownie fix when hungry.My family.And other important folks in my life trying to make a difference.
