Be Kind To ALL Animals

Think occassionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself the sight. -Albert Schweitzer

About Me

I'm not Irish or Scottish, but I am a fan of Celtic rock and Renaissance Faire musicians and music. I'm a dedicated fan of the Fenians, a *great* band based out of Orange County, California. This page is mostly dedicated to comments about their music and performances. Please feel free to post your thoughts about what you like about them, their music, their cd's, and any concert/gig reports.

My Interests



Music, music, music. Computers and computing. Renaissance faires and karaoke. Pet animals (especially cats !) Living vegan and and being a cruelty-free consumer.

...

I'd like to meet:

People with something good and interesting to say AND share about: The Fenians, Off Kilter, Minstrels of Mayhem, any fabulous Celtic rock or Renaissance faire bands you love that you think I should know about.I recently became a vegan and have become extremely concerned with and learning about animal rights. I live in South Florida, which seems to be the Carnivore Capital of the world to me. Hardly a vegan or vegetarian restaurant to be found here. I'd be especially interested in hearing from other vegans and animal rights supporters in my region (and from anywhere)!! I am a reasonable person/vegan/animal rights supporter, who believes in human rights as well as animal rights, and I listen to and try to respect the viewpoints of all on the subject of veganism, including those who are opposed to the animal rights movement.

Regarding friends requests: I'm NOT interested in beefing up the number of my friends for nothing. Basically I'm only going to add you as a friend if you have a MySpace page I'm interested in checking on from time to time. That means you probably have a common interest of mine or you've gotten me interested in you and/or your interests. Everybody else isn't going to be added as a friend so if you're turned down, don't take it personally. Although I'm sure you won't, I'm not that significant in the world, ha ha !

Notable Quotes:

"If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be vegetarian." - Paul and Linda McCartney

"There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle." - Albert Einstein

Your EQ is 120
50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick!
51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese.
71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely.
91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that.
111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt.
131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin.
150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar. What's Your EQ (Emotional Intelligence Quotient)?

Music:

The Fenians of course. Steely Dan, Pink Floyd, The Police, Wings, Eagles, Edgar Winter, Mo'Rockin', Chicago, Split Enz, Edgar Winter, 80's music, and lots of other classic rock and 80's music.
