Books
..i enjoy books about science and history, graphic novels, and comic books. i own only three "works" of fiction- 'the melancholy death of oyster boy & other stories', 'where the sidewalk ends' and 'the iliad'- the first two were both gifts. i tend to 'skim' a lot when i read fiction.... and i tend to 'skim' alot. I do dig 'To Kill a Mockingbird' however.... there are a few others but why mention them? after all thats top secret.
:: This is still what we call in "the business"....... a work in progress ::
Who is me? well, on the surface I am a fella. I, like you may be, am a carbon based life form. I, biologically speaking, am classified as biped. I am a so-called eukaryotic. I supposedly have 46 chromosomes, which is a lot less than that of a carp. Just like the rest of us, I am a victim of my own perception. I am one of the 1.7 to 2% of humans on this planet who have blond hair- this also means that my hair is the thinnest of the hair types, but i also have more hair on my melon than most hair types. I have the second rarest color of human eyes.
I am left eye dominant and am a cross-dominant person.
If we want to get a little more Existential the following would apply to me......
I am a artist. I am a musician. I am subject only to the limits that i apply to myself. I am very interested. I value imagination and conscious thought among many other things. I am a animal rights advocate who doesn't do enough. I am a vegetarian. As a rule of thumb i pretty much don't eat anyone that has or could have the potential to fuck.
I suppose I would be considered a ovo vegetarian, though I don't eat eggs.... if you're curious.
I am also a goof ball and just a little bit intense.
I've now gone about a year without any real camping/ hiking trips- which is extremely depressing.
I appreciate daringfacialhair.
I have a knack for complicating things... it's a gift.
If i was in an all girl punk rock band it would be called 'Sans Penis'.
Also I ruled over a region of the world known as Carpathia in the year 1606 CE.
A word that is often used to describe me is juglandaceous.
If you are a band trying to add me- send me a message, i get on average 2-3 pages of friend requests from bands a day....... and its bothering me.

Chew On This:
"This is one race of people for whom psychoanalysis is of no use whatsoever."
--Sigmund Freud, speaking about the Irish.
"Nothing more strongly arouses our disgust than cannibalism, yet we make the same impression on Buddhists and vegetarians, for we feed on babies, though not our own."
--Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894)
"A human being is a part of the whole, called by us the 'Universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separate from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."
--Albert Einstein
"My body will not be a tomb for other creatures."
--Leonardo Da Vinci
I have no doubt that it is a part of the destiny of the human race, in its gradual improvement, to leave off eating animals, as surely as the savage tribes have left off eating each other when they came in contact with the more civilized.
--Henry David Thoreau
News Flash:
Supposedly; "An angular, pronounced jawline is built by higher levels of testosterone in both men and women. And those with higher concentrations of testosterone tend to have higher drives... and more fantasies."
Consider:
In the interview, he gave an example of a man who falls head over heels in love, then later in life regrets his blind choice as he finds that he has married his own anima–the unconscious idea of the feminine in his mind, rather than the woman herself.
Useless:
There are so many different forms of jesses. Traditionally jesses are made of leather, but they can also be braided or made of parachute cord and almost any other material. They feature a button of some sort at one end to hold the jess in the anklet hole. They feature a slit at the other end to attach a swivel or a jess extender. These are for tethering or handling only, and not for flying or hunting.
Quote of the day:
"I've learned there are three things you don't discuss with people: religion, politics and the Great Pumpkin."
