About Me

To put it short.... I am a humanist progressive- hardcore head, peace-loving, floral designer. I'm currently working and learning toward my AIFD Accredation... becoming 'Accredited in Floral Design.' I am fiercly independent and equally opinionated. I am not deaf to others' words, though, and I find heated political debate to be one of the most pure forms of patriotism. I'm fed up our country's wan for our constitutional rights and action is all that is left.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Jimmy Carter, His Holiness the Dalai Llama, Bob Marley, your mom

Music:

I can bear anything but country. My roots are in industrial, but I swing from house to drum n bass to classic rock to hardcore to grunge.

Movies:

I like the classics.

Books:

- Weetzie Bat by Franchesca Lia Block.- Mindful Politics: A Buddhist's Guide to Making the World a Better Place- State of Denial by Bob Woodward- The 9/11 Report: A Graphic Adaptation by Sid Jaconson and Ernie Colon- The One Percent Doctrine by Ron Suskind- Don't Think of An Elephant- Our Endangered Value by Pres. Jimmy Carter- Lies! by Al Franken- Truth! with Jokes by Al Franken

Heroes:

too many to name... anyone who has risked life, limb and reputation to do what is morally right. + Jimmy Carter's diplomacy toward a terrorist threat... again being used successfully in Iraq and Afghanistan by other patricipating forces, esp. Germany, who refused to help occupy Iraq, yet trains their army and police force in Germany.
