about ta daniel:

hi.  my name is alex.  i like to ramble on forever about my opinions, so to spare my friends, i’ve taken to this blog!  i’m currently working on my phd in cognitive and behavioral sciences.  that’s a fancy way of saying “psychology”.  i’m also the reviews editor at earbuddy.net , and you can find most of my best work there.  i like to review music and books on amazon.  you can find my reviewer profile HERE (click the word “here.”  no, not here — over there.)

in my spare time i enjoy reading, writing, or bugging my wife with wild theories and ideas. below is a list of favorites, because as a nerd, i can’t help but constantly make lists of these kinds of things.
