Turn Loose my Coat I'm going Down to Jackson

About Me

About me? Ahh yes, the question of all questions. A man with no plan except to invest wisely in the good company of others. A man with love, peace, wit, comedic value, spirits, and above all a man unidentified.... Unidentified by some and yet by others my story un-folds with theirs every day.. Spread on distant continents, shores, and state lines our lives going seperate paths all blending into the same light.PeAcE To ALL

My Interests

Life itself has interested me for the last 25 years; although at times it has also bored me. The corks of peoples personalities has certainly entertained me throughout the time spent on earth . My own perpetual transformation, the sounds I hear, the sights I see, the things I do and don't do and the reasons for both have certanily made me laugh and cry, but have always made me wonder why.

I'd like to meet:

The people out there who care about something a bit more than their car... The average people who have something to say, but don't vote... The guy next to me at the red light... The Devil, God, My Twin. I may have to concur with Pete's take on this also. I'd like to fly every one of my good friends on distant lands at the moment to a place and time where we could share our stories, food, and drink. Be in the company of great original minds with souls filled with infinite giving.

Music:

A tune you can't deny you listen to, a tune that can change a man, a tune that makes you feel the way you did yesterday, and a tune who knows you.

Movies:

This is tough, but once again here's a few to wet your curiousity. Hearald and Maud, Summer of Sam, Eulogy, Train Spotting, The Big Labowsky, High Fiedelity, Broken Flowers, and Stand by Me a classic every well rounded movie connoissuer should catch.

Television:

KILL YOUR TV & Then..................

Books:

There's many, but here's a few to feast your curious eyes upon my fellow space friends. "On the Road", "Junky", Ishamael, "Tuesdays with Morrie", "TimeQuake", "Five people you meet in Heaven"- not as good as Tuesdays with Morrie, but not bad for a sports writer. Here's a few history books for the history geeks out there like myself. "The North Country", "Past Imperfect" and still working on the list.

Heroes:

The ones who care for all. The average person. you and me. Original Men and Women.

Politics

Lend your mindful thoughts to the victory of the Democrats. Could this be what our country needs? Will change be seen? Will our boys come home from the desert? Will the eletric car be allowed to be so...

Korea

Korea, yes it could be yet another move I may make in the very near future... Teaching English to little Korean children could be calling my name for this up-coming winter and for the next 12 months.....

The magic madcap sat on top of his pedestool listing brash, rash and crude demands upon people he never knew. And, still he says I can achieve the ears of so many fools willing to be hearded like...

Chicago

My stint in Chicago is over. It has been eight months of confusion, new people, love, lonelyness, fun, danger, and above all a stay never to forget. I've met some of the greatest and some of the stran...

Could it be true that just perhaps a few good friends could possibly make a western fight for a stay in Portland, Oregon. If Peter, Gary, Vegan, Joe and myself all make a fight I think we can jus...

Many friends, many people who say they care, but still lonliness creeps in lake a slow fog... Perhaps, were not complete until the end wherever that is.  Dispersal, congregation, and you look goo...
