I like to think and be analytical, and be curious, and ask questions. Here is the quintessential list: sports, books, concerts, being outdoors either in mountains (back home in the CO) or at the lake (in IL), discovering new tastes, meeting new people, and learning about those I already know. I also like to support ongoing movements that seek social change to many forms of injustice such as those causing climate change, impoverty and genocide. One such example is seen below.
I'd like to meet:
I want to meet others who enrich lives not ridicule them. I believe that I enrich the lives of those around me and look for others to do so for myself. I wouldn't mind picking the minds of the Chetro and the rest of State Radio. They are incredible, if you want to check them out or buy their songs, check out below.

Television:
I am definitely a fan of a lot of shows on fox and watch entirely too much of them, but when nothing is on. The Discovery and History channels are definitely the sweetest! Man vs. Nature or Animal Planet in HD are rather mind blowing.
Books:
Inspirational, inquisitive, internal, classical or philosophical reading material. The Bible, quote books, poetry, sometimes the morning paper.... On the Origin of Species, Red Sky at Morning, Silent Spring, and right now, Che Guevara : A Revolutionary Life.
Heroes:
JFK, MLK, my dad. Chetro, Braddigan, State Radio, all those on the RELIEF PROJECT.org's website, and everyone else who is fighting for the earth and those less fortunate.*****************************
