About Me

CHUDDA'S SECRET ORIGIN:
Piotr Tchaikovsky wasn't gay. Well, he may have been bi. Anyhow he had a friend called 'The Traveler'. This crazy guy built a time machine. Ol' Petey used it to travel through time. In 1999 he met a beautiful Icelandic girl named Bjork. The two fell in love and traveled to 1920's America. A boy was soon born: Charles Bukowski. This boy was mainly a drunk. But he wrote some good poems and had some illegitimate children. One of his kids was called Danny Elfman. This young rascal found his Grandpa's time machine. He thought it would be fun to travel a bit too. After many adventures, some of which inspired the song 'Change', Danny met a wonderful jazz singer. Her name was Ella Fitzgerald. She kind of liked that crazy little white boy. She got him drunk, punched him a few times, and had her way. Their child was given a secret name and shipped off to 1978 for safe keeping.
That child became known as Chudda. Chudda studied archeology, social comparative religion, ethnomusicology, and ROCK AND ROLL. The child went on to fight time traveling Nazis, and write some damn good songs.
Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
