Bare of them neccessities. An intersesting conversation, a comfy bed, a wholesome meal with complimenting alco beverage, a few things to do in a day, a great love, the quiet and loud moments in extremes, reading and all that other self education through non-passive and involving means, a big old pointless laugh at things, cheap cds that change your oppinion of music, finding a commonality with strangers, poking and slapping people who pretend they don't like it, charity shops, overcoming embarrasment, trying to sound profound and self-deprecating at the same time... missplellings
I'd like to meet:
Leroy G. Assman...
more friends and family... the people who can make it all interesting. I really have no prejudices towards man, beast or the terminally stupid.

Mr L G ASSMAN
My friends and family, in particular my Ma and Da and my dearest Brother and sister... Anyone that has had the wherewithall to write, draw or make... a book, a song, a poem, a painting in utter honesty. All trees for letting me climb them. The 'Great Unknown' for being so modest. My extended family for bringing me up loco parentis. All the unsung...
