I think its too easy to get caught up in New Age BS and accidently misunderstand or even disrepect other people's traditions. Its easy to take a quiz on the Internet and decide your totem is a cocker spaniel or something; its quite a different thing to go to a sacred, wild space for 5 days with no weapon, no trail mix, no sleeping bag and encounter a bunch of bears (or whatever).

I think there is alot of truth in that. I don't though understand your signiture line however.

No she isn't an alien. Mar is smart and funny and has a creative mind. If anyone is going to lay claim to the alien thing that has to be me. I am an alien.
I have proof . I have no chin, big eyes, spindly legs yet no upper body to speak of.
yep, gotta be true aye?
