Any comments? ----

I'm too flippant for my own good, and believe sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. I consider myself Libertarian, but I also believe that traitors should still be put in front of a firing squad. I believe there's a special level of Hell for child abusers and rapists. I'll defend others in a heartbeat, but rarely for myself. I'm a Christian-spiritual, meaning I do believe in God, and I don't go to church. "It's a dogma eat dogma world."

I'm a huge fan of Astrology (obviously), and my favorite Gemini, Marylin Monroe gave me one of my all time favorite quotes, "I'm selfish, impatient, & a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, & at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

I believe that life looks a lot different through the peephole of a razorblade. If you can figure out the meaning behind that statement, You've made a lifelong friend in me. (in other words, don't look at the obvious) I believe in digging to find the truth, regardless of how difficult it may be to achieve, or handle once it's found.

I'm opinionated, but when I'm wrong, I can stand up and say "Hey, my bad".......sometimes. :p~
