the way my mind functions is directly related to the way i was raised. you see i am an only child. i grew up during the peak of the cold war, in a military family. between my birth and my 28th birthday the longest i ever lived in one place was 2 years. this lifestyle was great for learning about the world but not so much in forming meaningful relationships. i cant remember the names or faces of the people i went to school with. but, i can remember most of the books, movies and songs from then. of course i remember a time before the internet and P2P file sharing and my exposure to new music came from the kids in the area i was living in, MTV, and pen-pal mix-tape clubs (clubs where you would make 10 copies of the same tape, tapes were before CDs, and send them to people on the list and in return you would get 10 new tapes of music). music, movies and books were my only constant friends and thats the reason my mind functions on random quotes, and trivia.
