I like social events. I used to go Clubbing, drinkin', dancing, raves, house parties, but my fiance' has settled me down quite a bit, and I enjoy being at home more or doing political work to help restore our freedoms lost through over zealous statist politicians and policies. My other interests are: social issues, civil liberties, movies, pool, bowling, karaoke, so much more! I like to play baseball/softball/volleyball (beach of indoor) and I love watching University of Michigan football, Detroit Lions football, Florida Marlins baseball, and, of course, my beloved Detroit Tigers, who came close to going back into the playoffs last season.
house, trance, techno, drum and base, pretty much any other dance, too bad Energy 92.7 "Beat of the Bay" went off the air. I like Rollergirl, Sarina Paris, DJ Babyboi, Gigi D'Augostino, Alice DJ, Eiffel 65, BT, DHT, Ian Vandahl, John Beaver, Above and Beyond, Ferry Corsten, etc etc.... the list of DJs and dance music artists is endless for me, always a new one everyday, I also like Ol' School stuff like Real McCoy, New Order, Erasure, Depeche Mode, electronica, pop, emo, pop/punk, punk, rock, Fall Out Boy!, U2, Morningwood, Bad Religion, The Used, Hawthorne Heights, All American Rejects, Social Distortion, Nine Inch Nails, Silver Sun Pick-ups, The Cure, The Cult, Billy Idol, Coheed and Cambria, She Wants Revenge, Eve 6, Simple Plan, Blink 182, Butch Walker, Offspring, New Found Glory, The Ramones, Green Day, Third Eye Blind, Gob, Story OF The Year, The Ataris, alternative, 80s, new wave, hip-hop, The Byrds, The Turtles, Bob Dylan, numerous other oldies, Mo-Town and most War Protest Songs, oh and IRISH DRINKING SONGS, especially when you are really wasted! I love a lot of other bands and singers but it's too many that I can't list 'em all here!
Movies
thrillers, horror, sci-fi, action, comedies, some drama, biographical films, All The Star Wars films, Lord of the Rings, and Independence Day but also Anchor Man, Tommy Boy, Adam Sandler, then there are movies like Go, Spun, Traffic, or Butterfly Effect and Vanilla Sky, or even more generes like teen movies, Can't Hardly Wait and American Pie movies (I really like these cause the guy that wrote them is from a city about an hour away from where I grew up and I know where he got his city names and ideas for stuff from)
Television
sports (football and baseball mostly), The Office (both UK and USA), History Channel shows (especially about Celtic and European AND ROMAN history), My Name is Earl, South Park, How I Met Your Mother, Lost, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, ESPN and occasionally C-Span to keep up with the politicians who toil away every day stealing more of our money and taking away more of our rights!
Books
The book I live my life by and base my political thought on Why Government Doesn't Work by the Late, Great Harry Browne, Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kyosaki, Think and Grow Rich by Napolean Hill, Aint No One's Business if you Do by the late Peter McWilliams, also any and all of Thomas Paine's writings.... just to name a few, some new favorites are Applebee's America and The Tipping Point!

TJ At work and bored. Finally began editing and updating my MySpace profile for the first time in a few years. Posted at 1:00 PM Oct 31 view more
About me: “The possession of Knowledge, unless accompanied by a manifestation and expression in Action, is like the hoarding of precious metals–a vain and foolish thing. Knowledge, like Wealth, is intended for Use. The Law of Use is Universal, and he who violates it suffers by reason of his conflict with natural forces.“ – The Kybalion
You scored as Libertarian. For you, government has no right to limit personal or economic freedoms whatsoever. You want government off your back and out of your pockets! For you, national government should be as small as possible, providing only essential services, such as mail delivery and national security. Local authorites have a better understanding of the needs of its citizenry.
Who I'd like to meet: Of course I am looking for Libertarians and Ron Paul supporters. Current and past members of the Libertarian Party, political independents, other 3rd party people, or other political people that have common beliefs on issues with me, mainly in California or Michigan but anywhere is great.
As for who I would like to meet anywhere.... well, that list is so big, I wish I could have sat in a room with Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin, I wish I could have seen Jesus Christ myself, in real life, to figure out if he is the son of God instead of having to take someone's word for it that wrote about it thousands of years ago, I cannot follow something blindly without proof! I am not a sheep!!!!!!
I wish I could have talked for a whole day with Harry Browne, unfortunately that can never happen now. I would like to meet Ron Paul (I was close to him on the 14th of July, 2007 but we didn't meet), John Stossel, Andrew Sullivan, Bill Gates basically anyone in my heroes list that I have not met yet and is still alive.
Hi, I am Tricia's aunt. Congrats on your engagement. You have been a great friend and support for Tricia and I think that is admirable. Look forward to meeting you someday soon. Aunt Pam
It has been way too long. I wish I could still watch Mangopolous. By the way, I got to meet him in person. It was the funniest story, my friend's and I were hanging out in E. Lansing talking about him and he happened to be sitting at the next table. It was one of the happiest moments in my life. Best wishes, it was nice talking to you again.

Sorry, no BF. I came down with hederosexualitis and the docs say there is no cure. I've accepted that and feel fine. One of the side affects are the constant oogling of the ladies at the beach, bars and other public places.
