My Interests

Life is absurd. Experience, move forward, make your own way. If something doesn't fall into that ideology in one way or another, it's of no interest to me.I think our capacity to reason is absolutely incredible. Using it is key. Don't be a bastard and we'll get along just fine.

I'd like to meet:

If you've got passion for something, I'd love to meet you. I carry around a quote book. I'd like to meet people who will be recorded there at least once and, at the end of the year when I go back and read your words, I'll sit in fond rememberance before stealing your direct quote for some story I'll write that hopefully won't result in any legal problems should either of us become famous. I'm not crossing my fingers.
