Movies
Anything that shows people running for their lives appeals to me... But.. I DO love..
Television
Frisky Dingo is the funniest show EVER...Robot Chicken, South Park, Minoriteam, Heroes, Ninja Warrior, AOTS, The Wire, Dexter..I hate HBO for taking all the good shows off.. RIP 6 Feet Under and Sopranos..
Books
Pretty much anything from the cultural studies section of any bookstore is good. The 2 Chucks: Klosterman and Palahniuk, Beat Generation writers, Zizek, Philosophical theory ala Friedrich Nietzsche,Søren Kierkegaard, Ginsberg (Please Master)Thompson, Kerouac...anything existential rocks my socks.
Heroes
Ana Mendeita, Kara Walker, Frida Kahlo, Fred Wilson, Susanna Coffey, Super PuertoRican, Josiah McElheny, Sina Najafi, .. Linda Molenaar for being a crazed and amazingly talented balls-out artist in everything she does..
Juan Doe( for always rockin my philosophical world)
Batman (for reminding us that we dont need superpowers to kick ass)
...and finally, Me. I always seem to amaze and blind myself with science.

About me:

I was reincarnated from a 60s rock groupie who took too many Quaaludes during a Hendrix concert and died in a euphoric state of unconsciousness. I live for fountain soda and pac man. I really don’t like normal people that much and do whatever it takes to not be around them for too long a time period...it might wear off on me and I might begin to bedazzle my vintage Le Sports Sac. I make art from my soul and couldn’t imagine a life without it. I wander galleries and absorb energies from artists work. I drool for inspirations and usually long to have chaos in my life so I might create from its downwind. I enjoy obscure 80s teen TV shows like Spencer (not for hire... the show with Chad Lowe) and Its Your Move. I’m always pulling up my jeans by the belt buckles. I love raw pasta. I hit my mom with her own car. I believe that the constellation of Orion is out to get me. I average a different car every year and a half. I have songs by Missy Elliot, The Cure, Kenny Rogers and the Godspell Soundtrack all on one playlist. I’ve kept a journal since I was 7 years old. I wrote my own comic book story, and it was good. I can paint but can’t draw. I keep a pen at my bedside so I write my dreams on my arms so I can remember in the morning. I write poetry but don’t consider myself a poet.I sing songs from the soundtrack of Streets of Fire in my shower. Scars and Tattoos are the visible roadmap of my life. My only addiction is thinking too much and, by the way...

Who I'd like to meet:

Philosophers of pop culture theory.

Friend Space (Top 7)

Thank you!!!

I was thinking about going to the city next Saturday, 4/25. My college art teacher, Rani Carson, is having an art gallery reception 3pm to 6pm at the Prince Street Gallery. I have no idea if she would remember me, but she will always remain a powerful memory to me. If you are not busy, definitely let me know and I'll come into the city.

I am supposed to pick 12 women (who have touched my life) and whom I think would want to participate. I think that if this group of women were ever to be in a room together, there is nothing that would be impossible. I hope I chose the right twelve. My hugs, love, gestures and communications hopefully remind you how special that you are.

Remember to make a wish before you read the verse. That's all you have to do. There is nothing attached. Just send this to twelve people and let me know what happens on the fourth day. Did you make a wish yet?

'May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are.
Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your spirit the freedom to sing, dance, learn and love. It is there for each and every one of us.

I just re-read your ABOUT ME section. You have been writing in a journal since you were 7? Me too! I saved them too. I'm afraid to read them... one day I'll write a memoir, I suspect I have to leave out A LOT!
HA!

You left the best comment on my blog. Cheered me up. You have no idea.
