About Me


From now on I'm posting poetry here: Tempest @ Writer's Cafe .
(Yes, I'm M. Lyder.. wink)
Up Down And All Around
I sometimes get edgy
wonder where I'm at,
miss a step or two, feel
lost.
everybody I know seems
taller
more intelligent
kinder
than I am
and
of course
not as
ugly.
but that mood never
lasts
very long.
I take a good
look around,
a straight
hard look around
and then
I know
better
but just
for a
while.
Charles Bukowski
Oh, squiggly line in my eye fluid,
I see you there,
Lurking on the periphery of my vision.
But when I try to look at you, you scurry away.
Are you shy, squiggly line?
Why only when I ignore you
Do you return to the center of my eye?
Oh, squiggly line, it's all right.
You are forgiven.
Seth Macfarlane as Stewie Griffin from Family Guy
"Many people need desperately to receive this message: 'I feel and think much as you do, care about many of the things you care about, although most people do not care about them. You are not alone."
- Kurt Vonnegut
"Dear Abby, Dear Abby
My fountain pen leaks
My wife hollers at me
And my kids are all freaks
Every side I get up on
Is the wrong side of the bed
If it weren't so expensive
I'd wish I were dead
Signed, Unhappy
Unhappy, Unhappy
You have no complaint
You are what you are
And you ain't what you aint
So listen up buster
And listen up good
Stop wishin' for bad luck
And knockin' on wood
- John Prine "Dear Abby"
"Aperture science
We do what we must because we can,
For the good of all of us,
.. except the ones who are dead"
- Still Alive (from Portal)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

What can I really expect from a social networking site? I mean, really? I suppose I'd like to meet artists, strange people, people who don't mind being covered in animal fur, people who like to laugh, people who have an odd sort of affection for zombies, my doppleganger.. etc.. Ultimately I think it's best I leave it up to fate, or Tom, although I'm pretty sure that neither one of them really exists...

Other people are trying to have laws created, and get legislation passed for YOUR own good. Sound fishy? Protect your rights as a consumer.

Make an informed choice. Find out where your money goes when you make donations to organizations and charities.

It speaks for itself really.

The truth about certain "humane" and "ethical" organizations

Find out what your old buddies The Recording Industry Association of America are up to .. and then flip them the bird and download music anyway..
