The WORLD at my FINGERTIPS

Friday, January 2, 2009

Member since May 20, 2008. My interests are eclectic, but I can be picky at times. I try to keep an open mind but I won't let the birds make nests in there. I love art, art history,carttooning, illustration of all kinds; literature, as well as jazz, and well as any really GOOD music (see reference above about Eclectic & Picky). I like my privacy but I don't mind communicating. I like a good laugh, and I enjoy most of the things that most folks like. I have a certain animal magnetism--that is to say, animals like me. If people liked me as much as animals do, I would be a Celebrity. ________________________
