About Me

I love humor. I'm weird, I think a lot, I like to be healthy, I like to think about the effect I have on my surroundings, I like my bike and my guitar, I like using commas to list things in a series, I'm not easy to figure out, and I'm on myspace way too much. I'm a school student trying to learn a few things. We'll see how that goes,and I recently got a haircut as well.

I feel strongly about many things. There are too many to list so here's my short list.

Things that I like - Equality (be it race or gender), social justice, freedom, peace, intelligence, independent thought, the separation between church and state...

Things that I dislike - Oppressive or corrupt organizations (from churches, to companies and governments), sex and hate crimes, consumer culture, intolerance, cruelty, shallowness...
I support medical use

one of the more important things (essay on happiness... or rant. whichever)
