Not sure how many actually read these things, but... About me? I seem to spend more time surviving adversity than actually accomplishing anything. It's not good to have to compare one's situation to ppl in 3rd world war zones in order to find something worth appreciating, but that's been my lot thus far. I will vote, but I factor in alot when I do, if you inundate me w/ requests, you'll likely be ignored. I regard myself as a cynical optimist, feel free 2 ask more :)
