In an order: Vancouver, dumpster diving and merching, trains, birds, science... or Scientology? Scrabble, pho, good music, skeletons, tattoos, the internet, bmx bikes, dead animals, live animals, healthy immune systems, food, clothes, cranes, snails, theology, snapping towels, office technology and software, juice, wind, canon cameras, livejournal, singing along, learning from my mistakes, eating with my hands, my wonderful friends and chosen family... prolly some other stuff I'm forgetting.
my del.icio.us
Oh and I also like "lolcats". Sue me.
People from far away who will tell me what the weather is like, and what time it is where they live. People with green eyes and dark hair, or Cillian Murphy lookalikes! Redheads because they are going extinct! Dinosaurs. Cyclists. Farmers (and their daughters!). Not your shitty band. Also please, feel free to try and strike up a conversation before you just randomly add me... It's flattering, but if I don't know you, I'm going to ask you why before I accept.
Additionally:
I am beginning to build the makings of a farming commune. I need these people:
Doctor – At least one
Nurse – At least two
Horticulturist - At least one
Biologist - At least one
Blacksmith? – Perhaps one
Cook – At least two
Accountant – One
Labourers – As many as possible
Carpenter – At least three, double as part time labourers
Schoolteacher? – Perhaps one
If you or anyone you know is SERIOUSLY interested in applying for any of these positions (to be filled within ten years, around 2017) please send me a message and I will assess your suitability. Must be willing to relocate to remote area. Food and lodging provided. Labourers need no skills besides being hardworking, but previous farm experience is an asset. This is not a joke.

Donnie Darko, pi, Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Last Unicorn, Les Perversions, Dave Chappelle's Block Party(!), almost anything by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, old bad movies me and Dee used to watch as kids ("Question not my judgement, Malachi!")
The Shield (aka Cop Drama), South Park, Sealab 2021, the Office, the Boondocks, and Lost. Anything by Joss Whedon. Well, actually, anything really provided it's on DVD...
The Sheep Look Up - John Brunner, Watership Down - Richard Adams, Dune - Frank Herbert, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy - Douglas Adams, anything by Douglas Coupland, (notably: Life After God, Hey Nostradamus), biology textbooks, the Satanic Bible, the Bible, JTHM, most anything by Vonnegut (RIP friend...

Mike Patton , Mike the Headless Chicken and a boy with no endearing nickname (except maybe Beedge).
