WFCY great thread idea!
Welll, I'm 25 and just began going to school 2 years ago, I'll be attending the University of Central Florida in Orlando (it's not just Mickey Mouse here). I'm thinking about a possible major in Political Science or History, not sure what kind of specialization yet, but I am extremly interested in learning about, let's say, America's
tainted history, something I hardly know much about. As a teenager I listened to a lot of punk rock. The Dead Kennedys turned me on to a lot of radical ideas. Of course I didn't further my "education" about these ideas until just recently. Michael Moore is who sparked my interest into politics. I joined this forum, for the most part, to learn.
I love all music; from the Grateful Dead to Thelonius Monk (hey jazzer). If I were to pick a favorite genre, it would be jazz.
I was born in Cleveland, OH. I've lived in Phoenix, Las Vegas, Los Angeles area, and Ft. Lauderdale. The latter is where I grew up. Talk about a lack of culture.
I have a girlfriend who is Cuban. Her father came over on the Mariel in 1980. He has tons of great stories about Cuba and it's politics/history.
Glad to see Socialist being so young and into radical politics. WFCY your knowledge of politics is extremly commendable for your age. I thought you were in your 50's.
I have to go read my "Chomsky for Beginers", yeah I'm a little slow.
Take care everybody and I hope all is well.
