About Me

I'm a logical thinker with the occasional tendency for childish behavior, especially when I'm caught off guard or complemented.As off July 12, 2008, I am a Certified Massage Therapist. It's still going to be a long road ahead, refining my profession, but as with every important in life, if it was easy it would be worth doing.I read books, lots of books, though I don't read them quickly. I'm the type of person who does his best to understand every character, good, evil or in between. Too bad I can't read people the way I read a book, otherwise I would be a rich man, but hey, who needs easy money?I do love music, even though my experience with it is alot more limited than some of my friends. I like to think I'm trying to develope my own idea of what music is exactly by first trying to figue out my own personal cliche. Does your taste in music define you?Surprisingly I'm even working out a career goal, though it's probably more surprising to me than anyone else. It's not easy, having a hefty load of negative energy at your disposal, to get too excited about any path before you, even if it's truly fucking shiny. I've got some ways to go, and I don't want to rush it. Ends come too quickly when your in a hurry.Did you know that if you try to write below your layout code myspace won't save it to your page? Weird.

My Interests

Massage therapy, alternative medicines, healing, hockey every now and then, Television now that I got cable back, reading, people.

I'd like to meet:

I'm strange about people. I truly think each person should spend one week a year, and spend the entire time coming to terms with what they are, not what they have been or are trying to become.Take the week off, go out and be alone until you can see yourself without using a mirror.The realization will give you the confidence you're going to need to sit on every primetime television network there is and explain yourself(under no threat of penalty for speaking the truth, no matter what is said) to the world.There's not going to be any fun games to play, no rivalry, just extreme focus. Life's too short for the strife to be famous or rich to not have a sure foot on your own and everyone elses perspective.Opinions matter goddammit and I'm tired of those whose opinions are selfish and manipulating. Steven Wright could host it, he may be a comedian but I've never seen someone keep a straight face better. This isn't going to be entertainment, this is going to be enlightenment, and I think he could puul it off.Just imagine all those people out there on drugs for attention disorders, staring unwaveringly into the television screen, noting every word that comes out of your mouth.We can run experiments too. Play it right after a few court television shows to see how many people suddenly start judging you, or better yet break ET in half and show the interview in the middle, and see how the celebrity followers respond.Hopefully there would be some reservations for desert islands made shortly after.I'd like to meet each and every person who'd show such pure forms of honesty.

A BS in BS

It used to be enjoyable, exchanging quick rhetoric with the OTR drivers, and occasionally selling a bottle or two of my snake oils and elixirs. I would have, more often than not, the odd day whe...

Six months....six long months since my last entry. Jesus, I don't know if those of you who read these have been feeling relief, or scorned. I have been up and down, foot-loose and shackled, pushed bey...

Anyone who knows me understands the fact that I'm somewhat eccentric. I have estranged views on the going ons around me, and with any luck I just may keep my mouth shut. Sure, it's a slim chance, but ...
