Bring back number 16!R.I.P. Darrent 'D-Will' Williams 1982-2007 This is how I remember him best: happy, upbeat, great attitude on the field and off, always smilin' and jokin' with his teammates.
Friendly, down to earth, genuine folks. People who make you feel comfortable in their presence within the first five minutes of meeting them. Open-minded individuals. Those who still embrace their inner child. Anyone who doesn't judge. Fellow music & concert addicts. Someone with enough patience to teach me to do a kickflip. Any & everyone who will still play on the playground with me. Anyone who has found a way to sucessfully overcome anxiety without benzos. Laid back folks. People who are self-confident, speak their mind, & make no excuses for themselves, so that I may learn by example. Those who enjoy & make the best of the life they've been given. And, last but not least, as many members of bands I like as possible... love the exhilaration of trying to make it happen; especially when it pays off!

Anything interesting concerning history, anthropology, music, or human experiences...my fave is the Harry Potter series. The book I read for Anthro: Human Nature last fall was pretty cool if you enjoy the Darwinian slant...it's called "The Moral Animal Why We Are the Way We Are: The New Science of Evolutionary Psychology" by Robert Wright
First and foremost, my parents. They're amazing. I don't know how they did it; they both had a tough job keeping things going for us and both managed beautifully. I rarely remember going without, and there were times I should have, but they were too good to me and tried to spoil me and my sibs anyway. They never, in all that I put them through, abandoned or forgot me, and took better care of me than I felt I deserved. Without them, I would have never gotten through those times in one piece. I'm a lucky girl.All of my friends and even acquaintances who have or are overcoming addiction. It's one hard f*cking road to travel down and not many make it to the end, and even when we do, we can be pretty banged up and broken. Mad props to you strong, determined, relentless mofos.Self-confident, self-reliant, outspoken women who don't take shit from anyone. I only wish I could learn to be a bitch when necessary; I'd wear that title loud and proud.People that create. Doesn't matter what: music, art, stories, ideas, meals, etc. It's a truly wonderful thing to be blessed with such talents. I think we too often take them for granted, i.e. I have an acoustic gittar here at my disposal and I rarely play it. Such a pity. Maybe I need to add one more thing to my list of new years resolutions. ..
