I guess I'm still new here enough to post this belated intro:
Hi LNF!
I'm a 22 year old male (23 late this month). I play online poker professionally (not even close to as glamorous as it looks on TV) and sell crap I find good deals on on eBay. I was born, raised, and still live in in the land of cows and twisters, USA (that should narrow it down sufficiently). My moniker comes from a graphic novel series by Neil Gaiman called "The Sandman" where the titular character is Dream, aka Morpheus (and a lot of other names depending on the culture).
My main interests are the arts; films, music, anime, and of course, literature and poetry. My tastes on those fronts are extremely varied, and if anyone cares to know about them they can ask. As for Literature and Poetry I'm rather new. What got me interested were two comics actually; one by Alan Moore called Watchmen, and the other is my namesake. Since then I've found Tolstoy, Dickens, and Milton, and plan on finding much more in the near future. I also dabble in philosophy and psychology (but two other areas I need to explore further). I'm also an audiophile, and have a headphone system that's worth more than half of what the house it's kept in is worth.
Saving the best for last, I'm extremely passionate (or obsessed, depending on who you ask) with an anime series and film called Neon Genesis Evangelion / The End of Evangelion. To this date it's been the most profound artistic experience I've encountered.
Ok, I think that's enough for now. :)
