About Me

I can see all sides of an argument. I am compassionate, opinionated, occasionally argumentative, loyal and stubborn. I am a feminist, an environmentalist, a humanist. I believe the thing we need most in the world is tolerance.

My Interests

Riding bikes. Bar-b-queing everything that's bar-b-que-able. Reading the news. Climbing mountains. Traveling. AND...World Peace.

I'd like to meet:

Anderson Cooper, Matthew Fox, Oprah, and our Fearless Leader--so I could kick him square in the teeth

Music:

Rap and country, classic rock and alternative, Latin pop, salsa, pop. If you haven't heard Isaac Hayden or Margo Valiente, you MUST check them out.

Movies:

Liberal documentarties: Who Killed the Electric Car? Sicko, Thank you for Smoking, An Inconvenient Truth; animated movies (Emperor's New Groove, Cars, The Incredibles) ones you can quote lines from, ones that challenge the status quo. TransAmerica, Dumb and Dumber, Wayne's World, Office Space, Super Troopers, Liar Liar, Dodgeball, Zoolander, etc.

Television:

Whose Line Is It Anyway?, SCRUBS, South Park, The Daily Show, Lost, when I can catch them.

Books:

Currently anything that has to do with my thesis topic is all I have time to read. And Harry Potter.

Heroes:

Activists. They can be socially condemmned for what they believe in, but persist with the hope of making a difference. "Cautious, careful people casting about to preserve their reputation or social standing can never bring about a reform" -Susan B. Anthony
