I am intellectual, brutally honest, and stubborn.
My Self-Summary
I'm Jewish. I'm an avid reader. I would rather read than see a
movie. I enjoy solitude. I love animals. I love the beauty of
nature but don't really want to be a part of it - I'm very attached
to modern plumbing. I watch very little television - Heroes and
Supernatural being the exception, I never miss them.
What I’m doing with my life
Working on the first in what I hope to be a series of novels
(though in what is typical to me, I find myself working on all of
them at once).
I’m really good at
Logic, analysis, history, latin, theology, debate, writing
(technical and creative), art, cooking.
The first things people usually notice about me
I honestly have no idea. I have never conducted a poll.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
All the works of Classical Philosopy - Anything by Thoreau - The
works of Plotinus and Boethius - The Works of Kant - Of course the
Tanak, Talmud, Mishna, and Midrish (and the Pirke Abot) - Any of my
books by Elaine Pagels about Gnostics in the Ancient World - or my
books on Roman Law - or books on Hermeticism in the Alexandrian era
- or Victorian architecture - Medieval society and daily life - Any
of the Utopian writers such as Moore or in a lighter vein any thing
by Gregory Keyes - Judith Tarr - Stephen Donaldson - Jim Butcher -
Katherine Kurtz - the Necroscope Books by Brian Lumley - Jullian
May - J.K.Rowling - Laurell K. Hamilton (though I fear she is
slipped deep into a BDSM induced madness and may soon cease to
function as a writer - pity). Ah, but I have run on. Well that
happens when you have over 5,000 books and are asked to choose your
favorites. Tough work that. Well, Movies - Gone with the Wind and
Auntie Mame. Music - Definitely Classical. Foods - Indian and
Thai.
The six things I could never do without
I can not do without - Creativity - Books - Functional Plumbing -
Means of income so that I could get more books (actually could go
without food for books) - Friends (after all, someone has to help
me move all these books occasionally) - Animals
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Philosophy, religion, G-d, society, utopianism, social engineering,
ethics, creative writing.
On a typical Friday night I am
At home either reading or writing.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Now really, if I were to admit it here it would cease to be private
wouldn't it?
You should message me if
Well, the logical answer to that would be if you wanted to
communicate with me.
