Blake Cooper's Profile

Film, literature, and politics: just another self-proclaimed, triple-threat connoisseur (and often times fanatic) of skilled acting, depth in prose, and anything theatre (stage or political, of course). Oh... and the occasional travel and web technology debate...

I am interested in blogging and new web technologies; all things politics with the occasional heated discussion; anything baseball; film; literature; chess; U.S. history; people who take a stance--right or wrong; puzzles (finish,glue,hang!); an empty stage; health and fitness; climbing fake boulders; passion and ambition balanced with responsibility and grace; instincts and awareness; people who aren't afraid to be emotional and expressive when the curtains close; being married; cute dogs; ugly dogs; the portions of coffee given in Paris; any and all tapas; kiwi's for breakfast in Spain. My favorite music are Frank Sinatra,Damian Rice,Tom Petty,Joshua Radin,U2,Jason Mraz,Counting Crows,Michael Buble,Bright Eyes,Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova,Coldplay,Howie Day,Mat Kearney,Neil Diamond,James Taylor,Bob Dylan.
