CURRENT MISSION

"Learn how to drive stick and then get a job as a getaway driver for the Irish mob"

ABOUT ME

I enjoy writing and hope to complete an original novel by fall of next year. I can cook, unlike most American guys my age, but I prefer not to because I spend much of my free time working in a kitchen.I enjoy listening to all sorts of music, reading, and having adventures with as little money as possible. I feel that money has a crippling hold on modern society, and our societies drug-like addiction to getting more of it has caused us to deservedly be buried beneath a mountainous economic recession. Aside from my many political/ideological rants, I strive to be simple, reject all things gaudy and enjoy nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Do not force a belief on others, rather praise a person's ability to believe in something, as it is the human race's greatest attribute.
