About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
Here are some quotes that I dig: "The angels will lower their wings to the seeker of knowledge to show their pleasure with what he is doing." -Q'uaran "I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians, for they are so unlike your Christ." -Mahatma Gandhi "The keenest sorrow is to recognize ourselves as the sole cause of all our adversities." -Sophocles "In the presence of eternity, the mountains are as transient as the clouds." -Ingersoll "One of the river's secrets gripped his soul, the water continually flowed and flowed, and yet, every moment it was new." -Siddhartha by Herman Hesse "Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery." -Malcolm X "The essence of the universe resembles incandescent threads stretched into infinity in every conceivable direction; luminous filaments that are conscious of themselves in ways impossible for the human mind to comprehend" -Carlos Castaneda in The Art of Dreaming "I believe in God, only I spell it nature." -Frank Lloyd Wright

My Interests

I've been told that I dance like a fat black woman. I s'pose that explains my proclivity for James Brown, PFunk, the Isleys, EWF, Curtis and Little Stevie Wonder. I like to climb mountains and swim in the sea...naked. I'm very fond of snowboarding, surfing, and Sudoku puzzles. I often pull tubes and do headstands. I will smoke yo' ass at Scrabble or Dr. Mario and I very much enjoy coloring those black and white velvet posters. I am a connoisseur of margaritas and fine brews. I like to say French things like connoisseur, coup de grâce, and bon vivant so that people think I have a certain je ne sais quoi. I am a white girl from the 'burbs that is also a rapper..if this intrigues you, go to Poetry.com and search for Danielle McKenna. I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Nutritional Biochemistry...but it keeps getting away.

I'd like to meet:

Your Mom (actually I already met her last night). Jesus, Siddhartha, Muhammad, Prince Hamlet, Jerry, Bobby and Jimi. Barry Sanders, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. Joe Pa, Buckethead and Malcolm X. Also Dubya, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Condoleeza so that I can kick 'em in the dick (Yes! She does have one).

Music:

I like to sing like Freddie Mercury.

Movies:

Shawshank Redemption, Gladiator, Big Fish and Scarface. Evil Dead, Fear and Loathing, Big Trouble in Little China, all the Monty Python's and, of course, my beloved Starship Troopers.

Television:

I watch cartoons and sporting events. I am also a huge fan of Sunrise Earth on Discovery, very soothing it tis.

Books:

The Teachings of Don Juan by Carlos Castaneda is a favorite, I highly recommend. It rocked my shit. Anything by Herman Hesse, Aldous Huxley, Hunter T., Philip K. Dick, Tom Robbins, or K. Vonnegut. Roots, 100 Years of Solitude, Soul on Ice, Heart of Darkness, and Malcolm X's Autobio(A MUST read). The Q'uaran, the Bible and philosophy by Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, and Marx. You name it, I'll ponder it.

Heroes:

J.R. Cash - True American Badass.

My Blog

Stephen Colbert....I love you

So, for some reason Stephen Colbert was invited to speak at the White House Correspondent's Dinner.  My guess is an organizer didn't quite "get" what he does on his show and thought, what a hip R...
