CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to live and work as if this is my one shot at living on this planet

PHILOSOPHY

Whew. Try hard to make the world a better place. Treat people with kindness and patience.

Interests

I like going outside A LOT. I like to drink good wine. I like the smell of a campfire on clothing. Geez, I feel like I'm writing a personal ad.
I have a couple of dalmatians (if you come couch surfing, its best to not wear black fleece- no kidding!), and I've been reacquinting myself
with the tremendous landscape surrounding my home town of Anchorage where I just moved back to.

Music, Movies, and Books

These are broad ranges, I like almost everything. I think what I dislike is more defining. For example, Thomas Pynchon wrote abook I was unable to finish (Gravity's Rainbow). In fact I got a little pissed off at Mr. Pynchon for writing
such a boomer centric novel. Cowboy movies usually aren't my first choice, unless they are playing at the theater that serves pizza and beer- I generally go for explosions and/or drama. I'm currently reading a book called The Year
of Wonder which is about a village in England in 1665-66 that is dealing with the black plague.
