"When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school, it's a wonder I can think at all."
What I can't figure out is what I'm supposed to put on this Myspace dealie that won't sound narcissistic and self-promoting. I mean, if I go to somebody's web page and they've got a bunch of stuff about how they're into mountain-climbing, they've adopted an orphan in Tanzania, and they enjoy lacrosse and water polo, I'm going to think 'what a pretentious, self-centered tit!' and write them off.. But, at the same time, narcissism seems to be what this Myspace ja-bobber is all about. I suppose if I am at least honest and forthright about my self-aggrandizment, I get a few points right there.. right?So here goes:
I teach martial art. I play guitar. I enjoy working in theatre but don't get enough time to do it. I study the Dharma. I love music. I am more harmful to the Earth and the people around me than I feel is acceptable, but trying to change that. I believe that the military-industrial complex will continue to wrest control of goverments from the people until we are all enslaved by our possessions and must revolt. That said, I am an optimist. I believe in the enormous capacity of humans to love, understand, and find a new way to be. I'm hopeful. I also love to laugh and do so easily. I have screwed up teeth. It's embarassing and comes from being hit in the face too much. I also like to get drunk, go bowling, jump cars, make things explode, and otherwise be totally stupid.I do not trust religions or political parties no matter how large and right they might think they are. I also do not trust any sauce named special, secret, baja, or horsey.If you've got more than a few synapses talking to each other and promise not to try and talk me into any of the above-mentioned things I do not trust, then I'm happy to talk to you. If you do not meet these criteria.. BUGGER OFF.
