About Me:
Hello, my name is Lysle Shaw-McMinn. I am in my early 20's (as of 2010) and an undergraduate student at the University of California, Riverside studying Biochemistry and Philosophy- In the future I will be attending Optometry school at the Southern California College of Optometry. As most visitors to this page come from one of my websites, you probably already know that I am an amateur programmer, and spend most of my computer time on my coding projects, which you can read about here. I also identify myself by my career choice and my passion for animal rights- I am vegan and an animal advocate/activist, and you can read why below in the 'Veggie Facts' section of this page. I enjoy playing the guitar, drawing, playing video games, cooking and snowboarding. And that pretty much sums me up.

Veggie Facts:
  • You inflict cruel treatment when you purchase or otherwise support chicken, cow, pig, fish, or other products; probably beyond what you currently imagine, even if you buy free-ranged products.
  • Heavy use of drugs and chemicals in factory farms is a catalyst for bacteria evolution against anti-biotics, hurting modern medicine. This is a very serious problem that has been discussed in many of my biochemistry classes; I was even assigned to write a paper about MRSA, a dangerous infection that you probably have heard of which originated in over-crowded pig farms.
  • A moral system that allows for supporting the mistreatment of animals is self-contradictory, regardless of if you base those morals on religion or philosophical logic. Please, if you disagree, spend twenty minutes reading 'All Animals Are Equal', an essay by philosopher Peter Singer. Please direct any philosophical counter-arguments to me, I love a good philosophical debate!!

Chat Snipplets:
Just for fun, take a look at a collection of chat snipplets I have collected with my online friends by clicking here. Growing up I spent a lot of time just chatting, and I have met some good people who I will never forget. =) Here is a random sample from my favorite chat Snipplets:

Matt - AIM - May 20, 2007
Matt: Work sucks
Matt: My coworkers keep schooling me at Halo...
Wormy: poor baby

Music Composition:
I play the guitar, and love music. I hope to get a nice microphone soon and record some songs for youtube. I am hoping to make some background music for my future programming projects, ie. Games. I would love to learn a couple other instruments and work them into the background music too (probably a keyboard/piano and harmonica). Until then, here are a few sniplets I recorded of possible 'background music' that I thought up on my guitar. I recorded them all one afternoon, although a few of them had been floating in my head for weeks.

Thats all!
Thank you for visiting my personal page! If you would like to see my very first home page that I made when I was only 9 years old, you can click here. Also, here are the the sites which I made when I was 15 years old, here. The latter is a geocities page, so was deleted in 2009 when Yahoo cancelled their geocities service. These old sites are a little embarassing but I am also very proud of them!! Sweet dreams!
