ABOUT ME
eclectic, ecological, politically irreverent, introvert/extrovert, respectful, observant, walk in the opposite direction from the crowd at the farmers market, like this quote - "born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world is mad",
PHILOSOPHY
Will get back to you on this.
Perhaps a song by Mason Williams - "Isn't Life Beautiful, Isn't Life Gay, Isn't Life the Perfect Thing to Pass the Time of Day"
