About Me:
You see me at a bar or club, dancing and you think to yourself crazy Indian until I introduce myself to you as Little Foot. You are still thinking that I'm Indian but you just realize you might have had me mistaken for dots, when in fact I could be feathers. With a name like Little Foot, you're probably thinking to yourself that I have a challenged endowment . . . I'm so happy my parents did not name me Little Foot. I don't like eating venison by myself and forego meals if I have to do so. If you can let me know who said the most blessed table is the table with the most hands, you will get many points with me. Speaking of points, this is the point at which I stop talking about myself and I start talking about you:
-
Who I Want to Meet:
Aside from Big Foot aka Sasquatch, people who will look good next to me. People who are brave and not afraid to be be weird and uncool to complement the coward in me. In my book (like I've ever written a book), its better to be a witty fool than it is to be a foolish wit. Someone who can disprove to me that good looks and intelligence are inversely proportional. Someone not named Stevie who will call me just to say I love you.

Call me damn it! Haven't heard from you in sooooooo long! I hope your keeping out of trouble. Pammy
My bangladeshi brother, whom i miss so dearly and think of incessantly, who'll never desert me, even when I get all spacey. Cause that's good ol' Manny...a whacky taffy... With a heart made of gold and courage of a lion. Roar on lion... your the king of the jungle.

unafraid to bare himself to others - to the
extent that he will bless you with a verse
of his imaginative prose or tell you his
deepest belief on a subject - in a way
that is endearing, smart, and most of all,
honest. No pretense, prejudice, or
pageantry accompany his thoughts.
Don't let his sweet facade deceive you,
though...he will battle for a worthy
cause. And he will bury you if you test
him. And I will too. Period.
person I know. Plus, he's fun as shit.
If you're like most people---and in all
likelihood you are---then you do not
deserve to date (much less hump) this man.
P.S. 30 other testimonials? Jesus...
you're more popular than I thought
remind us of what we cannot forget. So
it's no more than co-incidence that I
happen to be here, on American soil, in
September - this month of dreadful
anniversaries. Uppermost on
everybody's mind of course, particularly
here in America, is the horror of what
has come to be known as 9/11. Nearly
three thousand civilians lost their lives in
that lethal terrorist strike. The grief is
still deep. The rage still sharp. The tears
have not dried. And a strange, deadly
war is raging around the world. Yet,
each person who has lost a loved one
surely knows secretly, deeply, that no
war, no act of revenge, no daisy-cutters
dropped on someone else's loved ones
or someone else's children, will blunt
the edges of their pain or bring their
own loved ones back. War cannot
avenge those who have died. War is
only a brutal desecration of their
memory.
