CURRENT MISSION

my current mission is to define my current mission. I have some ideas, but I'm not sure.

PHILOSOPHY

A unique mixture of Objectivism, Catholicism and cynicism.

Sums it up:
"We choose to do the[se] things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard."
- John F. Kennedy

"Place nothing above the verdict of your own mind."
- Ayn Rand

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Friends traveling in India have raved about it. As usual, I'm extremely skeptical. Right now, I'm just reading up about it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Friend: "We can just couch surf in Goa. Its free."
Me: "Oh, awesome, signing up to get raped or murdered. Count me out."

As I said, I'm doing a little more research now. ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC: shitty top forty shit. No one can touch my iPod, its far too embarrassing.

MOVIES: I rarely make the commitment to start and/or finish a movie. I will say The Graduate, Dead Man Walking and Annie Hall are my all time favorites.

BOOKS: Virtually every boring, dry non-fiction book under the planet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The construction of a skyscraper behind Mumbai's Dhobi Ghat laundry. Made me appreciate capitalism even more.
