I'd like to meet:

People who read good novels and poetry. People who like big ideas and little ones. People who think being alive is fun, even though it obviously sucks sometimes.

Music:

I'm pretty self-involved, and spend most of my time listening to my own thoughts.

Movies:

Farovite lines:
"It's my head" - Being John Malkovich
"I'll show you the life of the mind" - Barton Fink

Television:

Truth: I got rid of my T.V. because I could not be trusted with it. When in the presence of a television, I loose sight of everything else. Which seems now to also be the case with my computer. Damn it.

Books:

Yes! I like 'em!

Heroes:

See "patty's Friends."
