I am new.

If you want a general idea of my musical taste, you can have a peek at my MOG located at http://www. mog.com/silicon_mare

I am an avid reader. I love scientific facts and I love proclaiming that the things I am stating are "scientific facts." I like cute and cuddly. I love ambitious, overwrought, and pretentious if it is knowingly so. I am not an audiophile, but I do love music and I am a little selective, so don't be upset if I don't really get excited over the musicians that you like. I will only ever be impressed if you use any musician from my top five or if you use something I've never heard of. I am bored with "indie rock." That being said, I really, REALLY hate The Hold Steady. Whew!

Kurt Vonnegut is my favorite author, and if I had the chance, I would make love to his 84-year-old body.

I am an "artist" in whatever sense. I attend art school in the sinister pines of Georgia. Literally. In the trees.

I have a secret (well, not so secret now) ambition to live in a commune (preferably the one in Athens, GA) and become a hippie.

I read a constantly growing number of webcomics, but the ones I read religiously are Achewood, Perry Bible Fellowship, and Dinosaur Comics. If you haven't read any of these, I suggest you do so now. They are spectacular and hilarious.

Okay, well, now that you have a surface idea of my personality and media tastes... where do we go from here? What new adventure awaits us?

We shall wait and see.
