Sometimes Quirky, Sometimes Goofy, Sometimes too serious for my own good

About Me

Beleive it or not (and that's up to you, I'm not going to try and convince you) I'm a liberal, an environmental advocate, I'm for animal rights. I think art helps economies, and so am puzzled when tax breaks are given to the rich, at the expense of the arts. I'm a smartass. Ask anyone who know me, they'll tell you that. I'm very very easy going, but I'm also passionate about a lot of things, and I'm not afraid to tell you what those are if you ask.

My Interests

Reading, Watching Theater, Origami, Crewing Theater, Photography, Acting in Theatre, Writing Stories, Writing Theater, Movies, Music, Wildlife Conservation, Environmental Protection.
