My life seems to evolve around some of the greatest cities in the world, for within them are the cowboys, angels, roamers, dreamers and hermits, all wrapped up within their great walls....San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Montreal, Manila, London.
I am a fan of great art, sushi, Kung Fu, Hip-Hop, folky-twangy guitar and harmonicas, graffiti, kissing under dimly lit lamp-posts, the slow decay of paint on the side of buildings from decades past, finding worn wood down by the traintracks to paint on, Food and Poker Network, strappy sandals, Heels, and shoes in general, the sound of Dinah Washington while i make dinner by the sea, traveling, espresso, the sound of raindrops in the ocean 1/4 mile offshore, Netflix, Namu, Green Tea, Red Wine, Beats, Scratch, Kilgallen, Hills, Valleys and in between.
Music
music is well said to be the speech of angels...in fact nothing among the utterances allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near to the infinite.

About me: "Many of the problems of our modern world, ranging from disease to drugs to crime to terrorism, derive from the inequalities between the rich and the poor . . . be they rich nation versus poor nation or rich community versus poor community. It is in the best interests of the well-off to help empower those who are not as well-off to improve their lives" —Jeff Skoll
