Adam

I like books, computers, video games, and ridiculous things. Visit http://www.kempa.com/ - it's a lot less awkward than actually talking to me. I play music in the Pop Project and The Recital . If you want to buy me presents (And really, why wouldn't you want to buy me presents?), I've set up a convenient amazon wishlist here . And really, what could possibly be more revealing about a person than an itemized list of what they want from amazon?Words I mispronounced for a very long time:

Subtle (SUB-TULL)annihilation (ANN-HILL-EATION)

I Blame comic books for introducing me to these words before I had heard them spoken.Three things that confuse me:

User Unfriendly Road Signs (If you are or know someone who does anything related to road signage for a living, make sure I never find out, because I will attack viciously. Multi-tiered Parking Garages Multi-floor buildings built into hills

My favorite result of Self-Googling :

"Kempa, Adam of Detroit, Wayne County, Mich. Independent American candidate for U.S. Representative from Michigan 1st District, 1960; Independent American candidate for delegate to Michigan state constitutional convention from Wayne County 5th District, 1961. Still living as of 1961." [ link ]

This excerpt from a summary of the September 12th, 1961 Michigan Constitutional Convention is eerily applicable:"Adam Kempa (Independent American), defeated."Exciting! My bottlecap mosaic is mentioned in the Fall 2004 issue of Venus Magazine (Le Tigre on the cover), in the article about Craftster.org .
