Anne-Marie's Interests
General
music, movies, video games, reading, archery, hiking, horseback riding, traveling, ANIMALS, especially CATS
Music
ABBA, the Beatles, Suzanne Vega, Elvis Presley, Fleetwood Mac, Larry Graham, Smithereens, the Cars, Tom Petty....basic theme? I like the POP, folks...
I also LOVE medieval music (both secular and sacred) and classical (brass emsembles, Bach, and Beethoven)
Movies
Lord of the Rings, Lord of the Rings, and more Lord of the Rings! Also the South Park and Monty Python movies.
I'll also go see just about any big historical epic (Braveheart, Gladiator, etc.) to see how well (or not) they recreate the arms, armor, costume, architecture, siege tactics, etc. of the period...
Television
Wonderfalls (if you don't know what this is, get to a dvd store immediately!); Weeds; Colbert Report; South Park; Monty Python; Fawlty Towers; Blackadder; the Muppet Show; Carl Sagan's Cosmos; and virtually anything on the Learning Channel, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, National Geographic Channel, History Channel, and so on...
Books
Kafka's Metamorphosis; Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front; anything by Poe; Tolkien's Lord of the Rings (of course); Homer's Iliad and Odyssey; anything by Euripides; as for nonfiction, I rotate between astronomy, natural history (particularly the great cats), and history books covering approximately 400 A.D. to 1400 A.D. -- with the occasional American Revolution book in the mix.
Heroes
George Washington. When I was little, I used to try to dress up like him and forge a nation...

About me: Intelligent, passionate, slightly nerdy; I can listen to Chuck Berry and Beethoven with the same amount of enthusiasm. I've worked with every species of large cat, and most of the small ones as well... I love all things medieval, and I probably know more about the Vikings than anyone should. I collect swords and am a practicing archer. Huge animal fan, vegetarian.
Who I'd like to meet: In fantasy: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Denny Laine, Charles Darwin, George Washington, Manfred von Richthofen, Nicolaus Copernicus, William Wallace, Alfred the Great, Leo Tolstoy, Elizabeth I, Eleanor of Acquitaine, Ludwig van Beethoven, Homer, Baldwin IV, Mary Magdalene, Leif Eriksson, Beryl Markham, Carl Sagan, Agnetha Faltskog, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, my grandfather
In reality: anyone who is funny, intelligent, inquisitive, shares similar interests, etc. I'd love to meet other musicians and animal keepers. Question: who is the real rock star, Charles Darwin or Mick Jagger? (hint: it ain't Jagger...)
Here is an image for you: At Allycia's birthday party last weekend your sister, Alice, tried to roller skate. I know what you are thinking...we all were...
"By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired." and only small doses of Kafka at a time
Hey Anne Marie -- you wanna get together and jam sometime at my studio in Brooklyn? I have a boring weekend "planned" and would love to jam! I have a ton of basses, amps, etc... you don't need to bring a thing if you don't want even! :)
Hi AM! Sorry about the messages -- you were right. I think it should be taken care of now. Please lemme know if you see anymore bullshit from my profile. I fuckin' HATE spammers and geek-ass hackers. Thanks for the add -- I hope to catch your show at CM. Later!! :)
Just wanted to say hi and let you know I miss you!! I wish you were here... I am being forced to get rid of my two cats and am not having any luck. Brian keeps threatening me that he is going take them to the pound :-( I even tried to see if Nanny would take the older one, no luck. MISS YOU! Love, Dawn
