CURRENT MISSION

To take a long stroll (preferably not off a short bridge--as the joke would go)

ABOUT ME

I like talking to strangers.

I embrace pen-pals.

I'm the first one to dance.

I enjoy cracking other peoples' backs.

I'm not stingy.

I like beer, but love it more with a friend.

I keep everything given to me.

I'll miss you when you're gone.

PHILOSOPHY

"To me, every hour of the day and night is an unspeakably perfect miracle" -Walt Whitman

"Now comes good sailing", followed by two lone words, "moose" and "Indian" -Henry David Thoreau [on his deathbed]

"Je suis un pamplemousse!" -Liberty, my [un]French Roommate (her words move mountains)
