Bio
"Our mental life is a noisy parliament of competing factions. In dealing with others, we assume that they are as complicated as we are, and we guess what they are guessing we are guessing they are guessing. Children defy their parents from birth, and confound all expectations thereafter: one overcomes horrific circumstances to lead a satisfying life, another is granted every comfort but grows up a rebel without a cause. A modern state loosens its grip, and its peoples enthusiastically take up the vendettas of their grandparents..."
-- Steven Pinker, How the Mind Works

I am:
A lawyer (but I have a tricky relationship with Authority)
A progressive political activist (but I can never get fully behind any banner, and I criticize everything)
A Portlander (I've been here over ten years now, but I never really feel I belong anywhere)
A bicyclist (but I don't get all spandex-clad about it)
An atheist (but not a nihilist)
A Humanist (... no buts there.)
A fool and a sinner (but I'll fight for you.)
