Greetings and Salutations
I enjoy getting mired down by thought to the point of paralytic inaction, drifting through life, spending time with friends, traveling, seeing live music, and various states of wonder.   but apparently i do not enjoy describing myself so i will end here.  but i don't always tell the truth, so i will continue only to add that  i enjoy staring at the ocean and slowly going insane.  and i like to hide behind cryptic comments...someone once told me that i sound like i don't know what i'm talking about, but i do
or do i?  no, no i don't.  and isn't that the real truth?  the answer, is false

I signed up here because i would like to get some correspondence going. 
my old royal typewriter seems so lonely, surely you can help it dance, just once more, if never again

(just to name a few, and yes, thats right, i went alphabetical on all your asses)

i will watch and enjoy most things, but off the top of my head,if i were to canonize some of my favorites, the list would  include:
Rushmore, Point Break, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Synecdoche New York, Next Stop Wonderland, Mallrats, Independence Day, Last Night, Annie Hall, Waking Life, Wet Hot American Summer, I am a Cyborg but that's Okay, Mr. Jealousy, Happy Accidents, the Blues Brothers, a bout de souffle, love & death, and so on and so forth

Good Times, Rosanne, Six Feet Under, LOST

I am enamored with television, so i will stop there, for there is much much more.  the simpsons and seinfeld have been syndicated into my dna to, for what its worth.

and, truthfully, i would most be interested in getting to know someone and then developing a television show concept, just for kicks.  everyone is so quick to dismiss television, yet its significance holds no bounds!

philosophy, history (especially 20th century United States), joyce, beckett, short stories
i have always worked to build up a personal library, with the theory that later in life i will not have much to do.  i've found myself reading more, so maybe i am there now
