CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Um...I'm me.

PHILOSOPHY

If I took pieces of the various philosophies I've learned from books or other people, and was able to combine them into something cohesive from the fracturing, I might have a personal philosophy. I've had no success with this so far. Right now, my personal philosophy is to learn, greedily, and to take in as many views, from people and scenery, as my mind has room for.

Интересы

I'm interested in almost everything, so here's a random sampling of things I've been interested in lately: traveling, stand-up comedy in general, beaches and oceans, monkeys in Asia, Obamacare, my sister's roommate's 100-lb dog that still looks and acts like a puppy...why aren't more people that easygoing?
