about me
I'm a bartender who will break up barfights with untold grace, debate politics and religion until I'm blue in the face, pop James Brown in the jukebox and crank up the bass, and... aw fuck it, I'll just pour you a drink and listen to your stories.
I'm an ENFP/ENFJ.

I'm a ranger, a greeter, a furie, a grape-thrower, a shadow dancer, a daughter, a sister, a friend, a lover, a fighter. And I'm a lot more than that, too.
My friends often tell me that there's something wrong with me, yet they always hang around to see what will happen next.
Want to know more? Ask.

I don't need to guess, I know who she is! But for the purposes of this testimonial, I will not divulge her true identity. Henceforth I shall refer to her as That Cool Chick. That Cool Chick, is, as her new nickname implies, very cool. After all, if it's in your name, you gotta be cool. Unless of course we're talking about temperatures.... anyway. She is also stupendously smart and extremely ambitious, one of those 'go out and make your dreams happen' type of women. She has a singular sense of humor, the like I have yet to find elsewhere, and a way of taking care of people without them feeling smothered or mothered (critical for BM Rangers). To end, she is also gifted and giving, always there in a pinch (if a little late), and ready to help out. To sum up, she's awesome. And that's That Cool Chick in a nutshell.

Guess Who is intant endearment, but very challenging and enigmatic in a good way.

"Here's the scorecard, in case you missed it. There's no shortage of gasoline or oil in the U.S. today, and we have near-record reserves on hand. Meanwhile the Congressional mandate for ethanol has jacked up the price of chicken feed for Pilgrim's Pride, which is the U.S.'s largest processor of chickens and turkeys—by $1.3 billion. And that's for just one company processing chicken. This is what passes for acceptable to our Energy Secretary?"

(The song is "Off With Your Head" by Mz Ann Thropik, in case you were wondering)
This past year has brought quite a few changes, but for me one of the bigger (and harder) ones is the realization that most people will *not* step in to help if given the chance. It makes my heart hurt to even type that on the screen, but it is unfortunately true. I believe it's best summed up by this quote from The Boondock Saints: "There is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men".
When you start looking for it, examples come out everywhere....

Some have asked why I never sign the emailed petitions they send me, or respond to the "good luck" forwards... well the luck ones are kind of self explanatory (I've never been one for chain letters), but the e-petitions could use a little more explanation.
Snopes says it better that I can.
"In a world beset by complex problems, the solutions of which will take enormous amounts of time, money and commitment, such simplification as the e-petition provides a welcome relief. Imagine having ...

When they came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.
When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.
When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for the Jews,
I did not speak out;
I was not a Jew.
When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
by Martin Niemoller, 1946
"You know, people joke about the spork, because he's overweight and dorky-looking, but really, the spork is pretty fucking sharp. I mean, think back. Can you remember any other lunchroom utensils that could actually cut through the mystery plates? Sporks can actually draw blood when used right. They're like the shanks of the elementary world." - Addela

Terry Pratchett's response to J.K. Rowling's admission that she did not think Harry Potter was fantasy as she was writing it:
"I would have thought that the wizards, witches, trolls, unicorns, hidden worlds, jumping chocolate frogs, owl mail, magic food, ghosts, broomsticks and spells would have given her a clue?"

Me: "Happy birthday! I have a line on a shiny new walker, complete with blacklight-painted wheels and a megaphone attatchment, if you are interested."
