People tell me my life seems fun and special. However, I know there are mundane and even boring moments in my existence. As time goes on I think I appreciate the boredom a bit more (it seems more like just peace and quiet).

I'm inquisitive -- often searching for the answers to something. Yet I also have a very "laid back" personality and tend to take things in stride.

I am nosy, obscure, and intellectual

Semi-retiring. Sculpting. Still learning to see, not just look.

Taking heaps of information and sorting through it to get at the good bits. Helping people figure out what they want to do. Leading quietly and by example.

Probably that I'm skinny and wear glasses. That I tend to smile a lot. Perhaps a bit of roguish twinkle in my eye.

Little, Big by John Crowley, Norstrilia by Cordwainer Smith. Local Hero (Bill Forsyth), Excalibur (John Boorman). Cool jazz, anything Stereolab-ish. Stinky cheese and great wine or beer.

Randomness, allegory, purpose in life, personal freedom, hope, March Madness.

What makes people who are really different from me the way they are. Time. How I can best help others.

Leaving the scene to the kids, curling up with a good book, and waiting for Saturday night which is a little more my style.

My knees are rather knobby.

You have the urge.
