I like going to the gym, going to protests and marches and rallies of all sorts of liberal stuff, hanging out at coffee shops, going for walks, exploring Seattle's great big parks, riding my bike, going for hikes, yoga, going to the artwalk, meeting new people and sparking up sincere conversation. Noam Chompsky is awesome. Passionate about the environment. I like going the library, to local bars
museums, The Pike Place Market, Downtown, Golden Gardens, everything Seattle!! I love reading in Cal Anderson park, going for scenic long drives, going camping, places of great natural beauty, (like the lake shrine),
the mysticism of mathematics, especially regarding the equation of e, & pi, & the golden mean(the theory of the nautilus shell)
plays, the art of Matt Bogard, concerts, camping, reading, writing, performing at poetry readings, having deep and meaningful conversations, ghost hunting, good cinema, listening to music, and being alive...especially that last one.
I'd like to meet:
I wanna cuddle with Betty Page!!! RAWR!!!

Movies:
I enjoy indie movies that change your perspective, like: My Dinner With Andre
(Their conversation changed my life)
Waking Life
Run Lola Run (every time I watch this movie I notice something new that blows me away), Winter Sleepers, Princess and The Warrior, Heaven, Ghingahs Blues, Guy Madden films, Donnie Darko, Goodnight and Goodluck, What the Bleep Do We Know, Baraka
,
Happy Accidents, Falling Down, Amelie, Box of Moonlight, Aguire The Wrath of God, and many others.

,

I do enjoy a good horror flick too. The exorcism of Emily Rose, Poltergeist, Exorcist, McLibel, Ringu
, The Grudge, Aliens, Jacob's Ladder, The Shining, Ghost Story, What Lies Beneath, to name a few.
Old movies are good too, like, Double Indemnity, Gaslight, Casablanca, Suspicion, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Vertigo is one of the greatest Movies of all time, and so is To Kill A Mockingbird. I love all the Indiana Jones Movies, LOVE The Lord of the Rings (the special editions), and a handful of Star Wars movies. Some of them I could have gone without seeing *cough*Jake Loyd*Phlem*Gag*Vomit*Jake Loyd*Cough* (hows that for subtle?)
Television:
For the most part Television is EVIL. However, we all have a little evil in us. Right know I love that Canadian cop show, Davinci's Inquest. Nothing like a show about gentle Canadian cops who find corpes with octopusses on their face.
I also love Twin Peaks.
"Diane, I think this tape recorder is broken..."
Sitcoms mostly suck, except for the Simpsons. I find reality shows funny, when I get sucked into them, which isn't that often. Oh, and who doesn't love Gilligan's Island. Come on, yes a bad show, but you know you love it. Admit it.

Frankenstien, Dr Jeklle and Mr Hyde, The Lord of the Rings, and the poetry of: Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Poe
Dorothy Parker, Edna St. Vincent Millay, William Blake
,
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and anything else I can get my grubby hands on.Grubby: 1.)filthy; dirty; unclean, as if from grubbing. 2.)infested with grubs, especially with botfly larvea, as cattle or sheep. 3.)a fish of the genus Cottus; a sculpin.
Heroes:
The hero with a thousand faces, and Andy Stephenson
