I'm 24 years old and live in Berea Originally I'm from Logan, WV. I've always lived in fairly rural areas and dream of living in an major city for a change, ideally somewhere like Pittsburgh. I'm an amateur artist and am trying to get a degree and career in graphic design. My favorite type of art is pop and comic art. My favorites in the field include Dan DeCarlo, Bruce Timm, Don Bluth, Tom Bancroft, Jack Cole, Dean Yeagle, and Cully Hammer. I've had some of my graphic design work used by Simian Ratticus Films. I would be considered a liberal. I don't support the war in Iraq or the marriage of religion and government that I feel coming on in this country. While I am liberal I do not totally support the Democratic Party because they have become pretty cowardly when it comes to confronting the conservative administration. So I'm without a party, I guess. I am a humanist and do not believe in God, Jesus, Thor, Quetzalcoatl, or any other deity. Humanity is in charge of bringing about their own "salvation" or "damnation" as far as I'm concerned. My moral code does not come from the ten commandments but from another guideline also mentioned in the Bible: the Golden Rule - do unto others as you would have done unto you. The only real sins in this world are those that harm your fellow man or interfere with his rights. I'm a rationalist and skeptic. Though, when I was younger, I believed (or wanted to believe) in everything from psychics to sasquatch to alien abductions. Apparently I have matured since then and see that the world is amazing enough without the need for ghosts and monsters roaming in the shadows. That doesn't mean I don't have a respect for fantasy and whimsy though. Horror and (to a lesser extent) sci-fi and fantasy are some of my passions. I appreciate people with a good sense of humor who don't take themselves, life, or the world too seriously. A pinch of darkness doesn't hurt either. I hate pretentiousness and know-it-alls.
