What makes me Me

about me
I am a mello person on a quest for what makes me alive as a person. I seek places that energizes my love for educational experiences and assisting worthy causes. I dig natural building, playing with permaculture, arting in poi, and experiencing bioregions.

Originally born and raised off of the land in the northwoods of Wisconsin with dual AmeriCanadian citizenships, I took off for Canada to pursue an education away from post-9/11 U$A and summered as a counselor for disabled campers. After three years of life in smoggy academia I performed in the institution's redtape circus and won sixteen months worth of spending my days and nights as a non-profit slave interning towards environmental engineering. After getting a taste of life away from the smoggy campus and innoculated with permaculture, I chose to take a break from academics and donned my traveling shoes to find a new school in Babylon. That brings me to here.

After this, who knows?

Splinters of the SubtleConscious Soul

In far northern Wisconsin there is sometimes a natural road that leads out to an island within Lake Superior. This ice road exists only a few months out of the year and is either loved or feared by the folks that live in this area. In the warmer months the several thousand summer residents that reside on the island are dependent on a ferry business to provide passage for their vehicles; during the deepest part of winters this road grants liberty from the tourists and schedules to the few ha... read more

Today is the first day of a renewed America. Today I watched Barack Hussein Obama's ignauguration party as the 44th President of the United States on the tell-a-vision.

I was watching it live from a kitchen where I somtimes work, in the capital of a surviving and sovereign First American nation. I was at the distribution center for USDA Commodities Foods, in a kitchen that I had helped to renovate for their nutritional education program. This place is known as "Commods", the modern-da... read more

There's a lot happening these days...

I just became aware that a brigade of US troops was deployed here on home soil on October 1st. The first deployment of its kinds since the Civil War. These troops are directly controlled by the President... not Congress.

An activist friend of mine and several others were preemptively raided, arrested, and being charged with conspiracy to further terrorism against the Republican National Convention held in the Twin Cities. Many know him as an incredible dumpster diver, gardener and composter. Below is an excerpt from an article about the eight activists that are being charged:

"2008 Art Theme: 'American Dream'
In 2008, leave narrow and exclusive ideologies at home and carefully consider your immediate experience. What has America achieved that you admire? What has it done or failed to do that fills you with dismay? What is laudable? What is ludicrous? Put blame aside, let humor thrive, and dare to contemplate a larger question: What can America contribute to the world?"
