Music saves my sanity, art is my healer, I definitely dig philosophy, psychology, sociology, religion (though I fall under none), spirituality, pretty much anything that is enlightening or potentially mind expanding, I like chill people who go with the flow, life is far too short, I realize that more with the passing of everyday. I groove on the outdoors (fishing, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, camping, and above all, partying), but I am no 'hick', 'redneck,' or any of that crap, but to anyone who is, to each his own. I'm not a Democrat, Republican, or anything in between, screw the puppet show of politics in America, don't get me started on that, however, I do take interest in politics, for, as Hunter S. Thompson would say, "Politics is the art of controlling your environment."
Anyway, to all those who read this and are interested in delving deeper into obscurity of thoughts and mind, just holler at me, I'm always interested in meeting new people, in fact I have met by far the coolest people by starting random conversations with strangers on the street, it is in this way I met an array of people from Philadelphia to Bulgaria and beyond...anyway, I'm going to stop now, after the realization that this is more of an extension of shit about me than it is really interests, but I'm sure you get the idea...

As much as I loathe the idiot box, it has a few shows of interest. Amusingly, they are all cartoons, like Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Southpark, Family Guy, American Dad, The Boondocks, Venture Brothers, and so on. I would also like to take the oppurtunity to say FUCK MTV, YOU DESTROY ORIGINALITY AND DUMB DOWN THE NATION WITH A RELENTLESS BARRAGE OF TASTELESS, TALENTLESS MUSICIANS THAT ALL SOUNDS THE SAME!!!

Hunter S. Thompson, Bill Hicks (R.I.P.), Alex Grey, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Maynard James Keenan, all the strange, obscure, and envelope-pushing faces of our past, the ones who've challenged the norm, and given a big "Fuck You" to conventional lifestyles, I blaze not my own trail but a detour of a trail previously blazed by these fiery and passionate minds that have changed our world for the better...and I can't help but notice these people are often left-wing, liberal minded...well... outlaws, in the sense that, as Dylan put it "To live outside the law, you have to be honest."
