About Me

Here's where it gets tricky... I have a strong belief in personal independence, yet am a devout socialist. I believe in universal sufferage, yet I am convinced most people are too misinformed (or just plain stupid) to properly vote. I am so ultra-liberal that I almost come out thee other side and seem radically conservative. Not to give thee impression that I'm too political, either. I'm really not. Indeed, my concerns are global. I am a pacifist, a believer in humanity's inate ability to improve itself, and though I believe in it, I am not a very good herbavore (seafood is my weakness). I grow horns and a tail when I drink whiskey, and they tend to throw me off balance. I get along well with people, yet am rarely remembered upon thee second meeting. A social butterfly, a ghostly shadow in thee corner, I play thee observer and seldom thee observed. A perpetual role-player, I tend to instincively project myself as a mirror image ov thee people I meet, which is why those who dislike themselves so despise me. An intense personality wrapped in a calm and collected demeanor. A tempest in a teacup, as it were. At least, that's how I see myself... How do you see me?
