About Me:
Shea Michael Anderson
Artist, Visual Anthropologist, Savant of Alternative
Cultures, and Conversational Partner of Intrigue
I am ambiguous and fluid, according to those who know me...others think I am cute and possess a dry, icy humour and wit. Still others find me pedantic, with an attic-trunk of dusty facts useless for nothing except Jeopardy competitions and party anecdotes.
Thrifting will always tweak my interests, and deplete my savings. However, trash days in Philadelphia do just as nicely, particularly in and around Penn. And someone should want to go with me to the PMA (and other various and sundry museums located in cities with far greater notoriety as centers of "high culture" (read: ooze) than Billy Penn's "greene countrie towne."

Who I Want to Meet:
Those Seattle folk that I miss terribly, who should email me and fill me in on how they're doing, cause I'm exiled for another three years (at least) in the "City that Loves You Back" (with santorum, I'm sure).

good friend we were both very drunk and
he was dressed like truman capote, with
some kind of big hat rounding out his
getup. one time, i almost killed the
both of us in some very bad rushhour
traffic on aurora in seattle. shea is
a wonderful companion, and has assisted
me through numerous crushes and fashion
crises. AH! JOANNE! LOOK AT THE RICE
PAPER! IT'S JUST LIKE IN GLASGOW!
Adorable, silly, brilliant Shae
happens to be my metro-hero as he
zips through his mental encyclopedia
at lightening speed to tell you the
bus/trolley/train schedule, meet you
anywhere in 15 minutes, or inform
you on the historical facts of the
building to your right. Also
intellectually sophisticated, sweet,
and full of stories of mysterious
adventures of the night...
BEFORE YOU GO GO!!!
friend to have. Visiting him in Philly
in the middle of winter isn't the best
idea, but he'll make it fun.
