I wouldn't say I'm a hippy/hippie--I'm a damn Oregonian.

Do I want to a hug a tree? Sure. What kind of cereal do I eat? Nature's Path Optimum Slim. Do I buy organic fruit? Yes. Do I recycle? Absolutely--it's one of the primary identifiers of an Oregonian. Do I use alternative forms of transportation? Of course--I have a bicycle and a bus pass, and would rather use either before using the car (which is a '94 Volvo station wagon with liberal bumperstickers). Yes, I shop at our local food co-op, where I like to buy tempeh to make tempeh tacos (chipotle flavor), and tofu for stirfry (they sell it in bulk!). I eat a mostly vegetarian diet. I prefer organic, free-trade coffee, chocolate, and tea, if possible. I go to the farmer's market once a week to buy all my local produce. I vote, volunteer, get outdoors, do yoga, do pilates, play Ultimate Frisbee, and like to be naked. Notably, I do shave.

But I contend that this all makes me more a resident of Corvallis, Oregon than a hippie/hippy/whatever.

I will admit I like getting high. A lot. Again--that's an Oregon thing.
