I'd like to meet:
New friends and old alike, duh. YOU!! Furthermore, if you want to be my friend and I don't know you, please send an e-mail first. I haven't added anyone I don't know personally yet, so you'd have to be willing to establish meaningful correspondence first without creeping me out. Apparently no one reads this part from the totally ludacrious requests I receive. I thought typing out a few extra sentences where no one seems to read might be humorous, eh.

I don't watch much. I catch the news sometimes.

I like to read the Bible, The Dhammapada, Milton, Chaucer, Poe, Thomas Jefferson, Cotton Mathers, Walt Whitman, Hemingway, Edith Wharton, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Emily Dickinson, Voltaire, Rousseau, Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoureau, Clifford Odets, Bertolt Brecht, Marx, Burroughs, The Chronicles of Narnia, Orwell, Wells, T.S. Elliot, Sun Tzu, anything written on bathroom walls and sidewalk benches . . . what else. Communist/socialst literature facinates me due to the theories involved. I'm one of those people that likes Beowulf. Any philosphy or thoelogy. I'll have to think about this one much more . . .
Heroes:
God and Jesus, these two entities combined have saved me again and again at numerous points in my life. My grandmother for her constant support and unconditional love while she was with us. And myself- because I have the courage to follow my given path in life and not step on others along the way.
