I am here for Friends

About Me

The most poweful speech in human history:

The Wishing Well Address

"The next time you see a sky, it could be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the bestest stuff for us. But right now they got to do what's right for them, 'cause it's their timetheir time, up there. Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket."

Kinda brings a tear to your eye, doesn't it?

My Interests

There are a host of whimsical things that interest me, thats right, I said whimsical - do you have a problem with that? If so I think that is sad. If you have lost any whim in your life you really ought to look into that. But I digress, I enjoy the outdoors most of all, whether that be sitting at the river with friends, backpacking through the wilderness, frolicking through the corn fields (make sure you do this with clothes on), playing golf. I enjoy word origins, writing about my personal thoughts on life as if they are law, eating homemade tabouli, my fish, breaking puppy legs (long story), facial scars, and bringing back old words like poppycock and tomfoolery. ...

I'd like to meet:
