A Few Words About Randy E. Aguebor
I love words. I am a man who loves to talk. Words are excellent. Words are extraordinary. Words are the simplest form of expression. I speak because I like to. I speak because I enjoy using the most correct term I can think of to describe a particular sensation, emotion, whatever. I speak for the love of the poetry that drips from everyone's lips.
I have no intention of working your typical nine-to-five.
I love PBS, KERA, National Public Radio, & This American Life with Ira Glass.
I love reading newspapers, there's something about the tactile sensation that's difficult to rival.
I like collecting things so that when I'm old & senile I'll have something to remind me of the way I became the way I am.
I believe that few things are as good as a fine conversation.
My idea of a great day is sitting/laying next to a window on an overcast day & listening to the rainfall, with a book in my lap & lowkey music playing in the background.
I like the sound of train whistles in the distance.
I like people who use the term "indeed"
