I am here for Friends

About Me


I never stay in one place too long.
I floss twice a day.
I am Historian for CODEPINK (UCF division).
Bad grammar and bad manners annoy me.
Once you can admit that you don't know anything, you are opened up to a new world of truth.
I am easily amused and enjoy the simple things in life.
I love warm paper fresh out of the copy machine
I'm not sure if I believe in life after death, but I know I will live as long as the memories I leave behind.
My favorite colors are yellow and brown.
I keep taking courses in college that I don't need... which is why I am on the 10 year plan.
I hate the lamp-shade that sits on my desk by my computer. I got bored one night and painted it. It looks terrible.
If I had to decide on one thing to listen to for the rest of my life, it would be piano playing.
I have a white picket fence that lines the walls of my bathroom.
The sound of trains passing in downtown Orlando scares the shit out of me.
Spain is my favorite country.
I hate anime.
Warm summer rain makes everything better.
Old people are cool. I love their stories.
I'm pretty sure the CIA killed Kenedy.
If your name is Mike, you are most likely saved in my cell phone by nick name... because there are a fucking million Mikes.
I've cried during a Publix commercial before.
Ali Boulala is my favorite skateboarder. I like his style.
I'm in a band.
FUCK WAR! Damn money crazed Central Bank makes millions off every war. That is why they planned 9/11, Pearl Harbor, etc...
I am pro-choice. Keep your rosaries off my ovaries.
