About me

Gender Female
Location Canada
Introduction I'm a curious person who has been reading and writing since the age of 3. I think books are the most amazing luxury in the world, right up there with dark semi-sweet chocolate. Let’s work together to make sure that censorship does not become the rule, but rather a luxury for each person to realize and exercise on their own.
Interests History, learning, reading, writing, laughing, eating, sleeping, ancestors, dreams, First Nation, Indian, Canada, Tribes, Bands, Treaty, Feathers, Stones, Seeds, Fire, Air, Water, Earth, Spirit, Thunderbird, Eagle, people, world, genographics, science, languages, space, universe
Favorite Movies Once Were Warriors, The New World, First Canadians (a doc), Apocalypto, HILDAGO, The Man in the Iron Mask, Tkaronto, The Colour Purple, Cry Freedom, Gangs of New York, Harry Potter-(blushing but not ashamed), Memoires of a Geisha, Lawrence of Arabia, The Red Violin, Mongol, anything historical, really.
Favorite Music DRUMS! FLUTES! STRINGS! - This Mortal Coil, "Strength of Strings" is wondrous. The drums from any Thunderbird call, at the start of the Pow-wow. The flute - any horn, really, I guess the trumpet... especially those, backed, up, by, a, SKA, beat.
Favorite Books Oh, too many to choose from! But I do regularly read the Yellow Pages and the Dictionary. These are great reference materials. Can't identify that bug? Look it up under 'exterminators' in the YP, you just might find it!
