I am made unlike any one I have ever met; I will even venture to say that I am like no one in the whole world. I may be no better, but at least I am different. ~Rousseau
I find mankind’s dualistic treatment of the “other” quite fascinating. On the one hand, that which is unfamiliar is to be distrusted, feared, scorned, abjured, or even loathed. On the other hand, we crave and highly value that which embodies a fetishized sense of difference, the exotic.

I'm pretty much an easy going all american kinda guy. I love hanging with cool people--doesn't really matter what I'm doing, it's who i'm doing it with. Friends and family mean the world to me, especially my Eddy G, the coolest guy ever. I'm a Cubs fan in enemy territory, but I'll survive. I'm an opera singer and a choir conductor, and I love sports too. I'm addicted to Diet Coke and I don't care. I want a tattoo and a puppy, but not a tattoo of a puppy. I need a grill and a Harley as well. With those things I think my life would be complete. I'm a hopeless Romantic. I like things that are wonderfully tragic like waterfalls, sunsets, the autumn, and Brahms. I'm one of the nicest guys you'll meet, but I'm quietly rebellious and have a wild streak. I am a rock star!

There is only one Ed Grow. Everything and everyone is "the other" to me.
Um, ok...
