About me:
I love to laugh...
I think life should be fun...
Thinking is so delicious to me I say "Mmm.... " after a particularly tasty thought.
To those who keep banging their heads into that proverbial wall:
Einstein once said, "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
So... dare to explore the uncertain outcome or risk both your sanity & your ultimate fulfillment...
Who I'd like to meet:
People with honest characters, curious minds, and open hearts.
Tree Of Life
My roots are dipped in anarchy
but my head is high up in the clouds...
Midst billowy tufts of cottony hopes
The sugarspun dreams of why & how...
My arms outstretched try to branch the gulf
of the narrow visions in unsung mind
My boughs are heavy with flowering thoughts
My leaves tremble as the heavens sigh.
The sunlight kisses my upturned face.
The moon beams upon my shadowy brow
The rain licks my wounds with silken tongue
Still... I cannot help but hurt some now.
My roots, rotten rebels that they are
Never let my head go too far
They tug at airy head fiercely
reminding it of Past's harsh reality...
But my branches quickly intervene
When they witness Drama's tawdry scene
They swat at the roots & say
"Well, tomorrow is a brand new day."
And so it is & so am I
Two parts laugh & one part cry.
I strive to love and dance and sing...
Our endless Winter
comes soon enough
Why deny the Present
its sumptuous Spring?

Simple Truths
"Without imperfection, you or I would not exist."
~Stephen Hawking
"The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."
~Stephen Hawking
“I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.”
~Stephen Hawking
"The human race is just a chemical scum on a moderate-sized planet, orbiting around a very average star in the outer suburb of one among a hundred billion galaxies. We are so insignificant that I can't believe the whole universe exists for our benefit. That would be like saying that you would disappear if I closed my eyes."
~ Stephen Hawking

Anything worth doing. Life is too short to limit your options.
Music
Of course! Music hath sounds that charm the savage breast.
Movies
Most genres especially: indie films, foreign films, classic films, screwball comedies, Errol Morris documentaries, Nick Park shorts, and yes, I'll admit I love sci-fi & horror films.
Any movie with: Daniel Craig, Benicio Del Toro, Clive Owen, Johnny Depp, Matt Damon, Cary Grant, Gary Cooper, William Powell, Humphrey Bogart, Henry Fonda, John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Christian Bale or Denzel Washington, for the obvious reasons.Television
Rather not, thanks. Well, actually, it does make a great monitor for Netflix dvd's. Although any of those old 60's series with the uberHAWT Patrick McGoohan will capture my immediate attention.
Is there a more beautiful man than this?
Books
I prefer to speak of authors rather than just list books.
P.G. Wodehouse, Evelyn Waugh, Iris Murdoch, Umberto Eco, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Salman Rushdie, H.S. Thompson, Stephen Hawking, Philip K. Dick, Oscar Wilde, H.L. Mencken, Robert Anton Wilson, Henry James, & Edith Wharton are among my favorite authors though I have many, many more.
W.H. Auden, Shakespeare, Pablo Neruda, e.e cummings are among my favorite poets.
The Confederacy of the Dunces, by a writer who committed suicide before publishing his one & only book, which is a satirical masterpiece.
Absurdistan, by a writer who thankfully did not commit suicide before publishing his fabulous farce & hopefully will author many more books.
I am always fascinated by: modern history, ancient history, mythology, philosophy
Heroes
Those who question the "common" wisdom despite the strong pull of the "popular" culture.
Those who dare to try against overwhelming odds.
Those who don't believe a thing is true just because they see it in print.
Those who think before they react.
Those who can see the gilding beneath the tarnish.
The few, the proud, the strong...
The man I love...

My Dream
“I have seen such beauty as one man has seldom seen; therefore will I be grateful to die in this little room, surrounded by the forests, the great green gloom of trees my only gloom - and the sound, the sound of green.
Here amid the warmth of the rain, what might have been is resolved into the tenderness of a tall doom who says: 'You did your best, rest - and after you the bloom of what you loved and planted still will whisper what you mean.
And the ghosts of the birds I loved, will attend me each a friend; like them shall I have flown beyond the realm of words.
You, through the trees, shall hear them, long after the end calling me beyond the river. For the cries of birds continue, as - defended by the coretege of their wings - my soul among strange silences yet sings.”
~James Edward

My Philosophy
You’re not something that’s a result of the big bang.
You’re not something that is a sort of puppet on the end of the process.
You are still the process.
You are the big bang, the original force of the universe.
~Alan Watts
There are three classes of people:
Those who see.
Those who see when they are shown.
Those who do not see.
– Leonardo da Vinci
