Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
UnusualSuspect
My name is Michael, and I'm a liberal humanist with strong passions in the fine arts, performing arts, and architecture. I live in NY.
Relaxed and laid-back...a live and let live kind of person, but I will speak up when others are oppressed or left behind, especially by the government.
I enjoy talking on many different subjects, and will change my mind when I come across new information which forces me to re-consider my position.
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain
