Anyone who shows up in bright color amidst the buzzing blur of noise and turbulence ~ Apparently I'm a sucker for pretty eyes...

In contrast to the $463 billion spent by the Pentagon bureaucracy, look at what we're spending on federal programs that politicians often describe as too expensive:

$38 billion on K-12 education,
$50 billion on children's health insurance,
$13 billion on humanitarian foreign aid,
$6 billion on job training,
$2 billion on renewable energy research,
$8 billion on the Environmental Protection Agency.

Music:

Music is a huge part of my life. I'm able to see live shows at least once every other week - sometimes I wish I lived in San Fransisco (I've been able to work near there over the last three summers) where you can find a cool concert going on almost every week. Here are few of my favorite artists, but of course, I have several - maybe too many!
Michael Franti & Spearhead

(Wayne and I were able to go to the Harvest Ball in San Francisco in November - Michael Franti is so ispirational - I especially loved his friends & family session)

Zeppelin

The Beastie Boys

I saw the Sundance Film "Awesome, I Fuckin' Shot That" at the festival - amazing film focusing on a concert from different fans' perspectives (each of the fans were given a videocamera - it was sick)

Mr. Bob Marley

Alice In Chains (the Unplugged Album)

Any Ani

Movies:

Road to Guantanamo, American Beauty, Fight Club, Happiness, Old School, Magnolia, Requiem for a Dream, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, I Know I'm not alone, Drugstore Cowboy... pretty much any random indie or foreign film that finds it's way to the DVD player

Television:

yuck

Books:

Banker to the Poor (Yunus), mostly textbooks :(

Heroes:

My cute mamma :)
