I aspire to be an athletic and healthy guy. (Learn to) Cook and Eat fresh food, play volleyball, tennis, and run for exercise, hit the gym 3-5 days per week. I completed one Warrior Dash last October and signed up for another in April.
I read many books (science book club, cultural book club, sci-fi and fantasy and humor and history), magazines (Economist subscriber), and blogs (many dozens in my RSS reader) on the web. Mostly I watch movies and some tv shows on Hulu or Netflix. I listen to audio books often while I jog or commute, and I organize one non-fiction book club and mostly participate in another science book club. However I am a big believer in taking books that I have not read in years or longer and donating them to Goodwill or local library.
In some spare time I am a very amateur violinist.
I live in a condo in the burbs but I think I would enjoy city life too, if my job ever took me there.
I have a probably unhealthy fixation on infographics. I love thinking that I am informed, even though usually I only have vague ideas. I love feeling able to engage in intelligent and riveting discussions, though sometimes I just end up listening and asking questions.
Some day I think I would enjoy working in journalism.

Exploring. Trying to find myself.

minimalism attracts me, so I don't know of six "things" I need
but right now I am working on remembering six points of my meditation (with my own rephrasings)
- Fill my heart with pure love
- Fill my mind with pure knowledge
- I will not dwell in guilt
- I am master of my self, I make my own choices
- I forgive everyone
- I will achieve self realization

how I can participate, make the universe a little more clear

sometimes out with friends, sometimes at home resting, sometimes spending way too much time enjoying the information superhighway.

no such thing as private on the internet

you know why the bowl of petunias said "oh no, not again"
