You Are From Pluto
You are a dark, mysterious soul, full of magic and the secrets of the universe.
You can get the scoop on anything, but you keep your own secrets locked in your heart.
You love change and you use it to your advantage, whether by choice or chance.
You don't like to compromise, to the point of being self-destructive with your stubborness.
Live life with love, and your deep powers will open the world to you.
You are driven and ambitious - totally self motiviated to succeed
Actively working to acheive what you want, you are skillful in many areas.
You are a natural predator with strong instincts ... and more than a little demanding.
You are creative, energetic, and an extremely powerful force.
An outdoors person, you tend to have an explosive personality, but also a good sense of humor.
People sometimes see you as arrogant or a know it all.
You tend to be a bit of a loner, though you hate to be alone.
Souls you are most compatible with: Seeker Soul and Peacemaker Soul
I generally enjoy R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz, Blues, but am highly interested in hearing and learning more classical, opera, and bluegrass€

Walker - because I strive for her determination and her business sense, Ella Baker - for her sense of justice and her fierce support of young people, Hilary Clinton (Elect Clinton/Winfrey 2008!) - because her global vision is one I can actually get behind, and of course Xena: Warrior Princess - enough said!

Contrary to cultural denial, there is in fact a global fascination with blackness in general, black men in particular...even in the seat of the erstwhile Roman Empire...

I'm a wacky, globally-minded writer, activist and a prankster…I love books, movies, music, intense political discussions, Xena: Warrior Princess and other superheroes and super-villains. I’m mostly a social being, but do require extended moments of solitary confinement, especially when it comes to my writing projects. I like all kinds of play, particularly the kind that’s been socially sequestered to childhood: Kickball, dodge ball, hide-and-go-seek, double dutch, board games, card games, video games, etc. I love anything related to water and wish I had a boat, or knew somebody with a boat, or knew somebody who would buy me a boat, or had a good plan for stealing a boat and getting away with it. One day I hope to own a houseboat (purloined or otherwise) where I can sail the seas, write, play guitar, and get marooned on an island with a few cuties:) I like to laugh ‘til I cry and to cry ‘til I laugh. I don't believe in pretending that I don't have feelings and don't like that quality much on others - though I do understand the pressure we're all under in this convoluted society to not show emotion. But I think it’s a real shame that most of us have to wear that chronically constipated look on our faces.

Lust: 80%
Pride: 80%

Chance I'll Go to Hell: 69%
I will die, after conquering the world as an evil dictator.
Who I'd like to meet: Eccentric carbon-based beings who are mentally stimulating, who can engage in conversations and endeavors beyond their personal idiosyncrasies and comfort zones, who have and enjoy their own lives, who can laugh (particularly at themselves) and who can have fun. This includes social intellectuals, artists, foreigners, perverts, anarchists, queers, etc. You get the picture. Just like yourself, be yourself and demonstrate respect and honorable intentions (even if they're perverse) in my direction and we'll get along grandly. Oh! Being cute gets you bonus points. While I admire self-proclaimed cuteness, I reserve final judgement;)
Part of me wants to sleep with him. But I know if I did, I'd kill him.
