I have only a few friends and many acquaintances.I graduated from Evergreen State College in June of 2002. I have written a novel and hope to get it published.What else? "Life is the only thing worth living for" -- Flipper.I am messy and creative, a recovering dope fiend for 16 years. I drink a lot of coffee.I don't smoke. I don't support our government.

Charlie Bartlet(t) ?

This movie is worth it if only for the last 10 minutes or so. Robert Downey, Jr. is brilliant as usual... but I may be a little biased on that count. As for the plot, I'm a little too old for these hi...
