I enjoy deejaying, collecting rare records, trolling through dusty record stores, making photographs, creating graphic designs, listening to music on the subway, revelling at house parties, grooving out at nightclubs, meeting new people, escaping my body, eating organic produce and meats, listening to music on my bed, rooting for the Dallas Cowboys, designing web pages, tattooing my skin, learning about the great city of Detroit, cheering for the New York Yankees, spending time with my family, stroking my kitty's fur, watching pornography, cooking dinner for friends, injecting the topic of sex into conversation, writing journalistically on the Internet, and many other things I have yet to experience!
