My Interests

Anything unique, different from the norm, the dark side of life, macabre artifacts, handmade creations, entrepreneuring. Also interested in Classical history, i.e. Greco-Roman, Chernobyl disaster, and countercultures...

I'd like to meet:

MT Wells (write me if you know what that is.)
Ladies and Gentlemen. Hundred Watt People. I'm tired of low-wattage, energy draining people. I want to meet people who give me back as much as I give them. People who can impress me! I also enjoy meeting well-connected, and accomplished individuals. I'd like to someday meet Elvira.

Movies:

Troy, Gladiator, Bram Stokers Dracula, The Princess Bride, Being John Malkovich, Pirates of the Caribbean, Beetlejuice, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, American Psycho, Fight Club, The 'Burbs, National Lampoons, House of 1000 Corpses, Clash of the Titans and any movie where the dark side wins.

Books:

Iliad, Odyssey, The Secret History, The Greek Treasure, Huckleberry Finn, American Psycho, The Jungle by Upton Sinclair, Confederacy of Dunces, Sex or Symbol - Erotic Images of Greece and Rome, A History of Secret Societies, Cruelty and Civilization - The Roman Games, Goth Chic by Gavin Baddeley, What is Goth? by Voltaire, The Amityville Horror, Strange Creations, Stiff - The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers, Suetonius's The Twelve Caesars, Sailing the Wine Dark Sea - Why the Greeks Matter, The Devil Knows Latin - Why America Needs the Classical Tradition, Ovid's Metamorphosis, Ovid's The Art of Love, any of Plato's works, The Mole People, Gracefully Insane - Life and Death Inside America's Premier Mental Hospital, Voices from Chernobyl, Life Exposed - Biological Citizens after Chernobyl, anything about the Chernobyl disaster, anything about counterculture, anything about Classical Civilization and language, including Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, and Ancient Egypt, any of the morbid reads on the Morbid Fact du Jour reading list, and countless others...

Heroes:

I don't really look at others in the hero light, most people have faults, and I don't like to provide anyone with hero-worship. Most heroes are self-serving even if they won't admit it. But I will say that I've always admired Elvira, ever since I was a little girl. She would be my heroine if I had one!
