Ari For President

About Me

I believe that most people who want positions of power don't always have the best intentions. I want to be President. Think what you will. I also think that Benjamin Franklin was a little off with the Beer. Beer is proof that God wants us to be happy, but cheese is proof that He loves us. I like to write and I like to listen. I like to laugh loudly. I like to wander and get lost and find my way. Not necessarilly in that order. I like whiskey and scotch. I was once at a bar with my mom and I ordered a scotch and soda with a lime, and my mom gasped saying that that was the drink her father would always order. I was young when he died. It was about a year after my grandmother died. I never remember liking him much when I went to visit. I think now I might like him more.I like Ireland. I like to travel just about anywhere. I have itchy feet, as the saying goes. My imagination is a scary place but I can't stop myself from wanting to be there as often as I do. I like order. I also like chaos (maybe a little more). I like short scentences. I like to dance and sing, although I am told I don't do either very well. But that doesn't stop me. I also like music and am eternally grateful to my friends for introducing me to their music which I can now claim as my music. I like to cook. I don't like to clean. I like to tell jokes. I am not easily offended but I am careful to not offend. I'm done.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Owen Meaney, Golda Meir, Neil Gaiman, Kris Novaselic, Led Belly, Yoko Ono, Morgan La Fay, and I'm sure a lot of other people I don't know because I haven't met them yet. Oh yeah, and these guys.
