A right. Music. I don't know a third or so of the folks up there.
Musicwise, I likes me the Rolling Stones, the Talking Heads, the
Beatles, Klaatu, Nils Lofgren, George Harrison, Iron Butterfly, and per
se, and. I try to write music, of all sorts of genres, but I just can't
do it.

Right now I'm in the 11th grade, and due to our magical 5 year High
School curriculum, I'll be graduating in 2003. If all goes according to
plan, I'd like to study linguistics at McGill University in Montreal -
but that could change.
