I need a gallon of gas like Sarah Palin needs cue cards.

About Me


Suddenly, I miss everyone.
Inform yourself. You'll be surprised at how fast our world is falling apart.

At this point, "In God We Trust" is being taken a little too literal.
I'm a mess.
-Don't panic. -Me
-Fuck 'em. -Richard
-In the unlikely story of America, there has never been anything false about hope. -Barack Obama
-If tyranny and oppression comes to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy. -James Madison
-Rock out like your eyes are fading and you still got your ears, but you don't know for how long. -Anis Mojgani
-The most important things are the hardest to say because words diminish them. -Stephen King
-Jesus Christ, I'm not scared to die, but I'm a little scared of what comes after. Do I get the gold chariot, or do I float through the ceiling? -Brand New
-It's a march to extinction with your god in step. It's his name in your mouth; it's his cross on your neck. -Kevin Devine
-I challenge you to find something that you are really willing to die for, and then live for it. -Black Ice
-Master of success out of dirt. -The Holly Springs Disaster
-So I implore you. I intrigue you. And I challenge you to speak with conviction. To say what you believe in a manner that depicts the determination with which you believe it. -Taylor Mali
-And all the world's a stage. -Shakespeare
- We all die. The goal isn't to live forever. The goal is to create something that will. -Chuck Palahniuk
That she is beautiful.. . and she means nothing to me.
Personally, I can't help but think that there has got to be a reason why you live.
There has got to be some purpose behind why it is you breathe.
There has to be a meaning behind the way you think, and behind the way you move.
Of course, because only then, will you realize that somewhere, at some time, there is something, anything, waiting just for you.
The only hard part is knowing it when you see it.
Or, if you would prefer:
"People say that we're searching for the meaning of life. I don't think that's it at all. I think that what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive." -Joseph Campbell
I can't wait.
NYU-1 vs Me-0. My will be school.
I play music and I'm always looking for people to jam with.

I have big dreams and major obstacles, but that's not going to stop me.
I've learned that writing is power, and a picture says a thousand words.
You have to give to get, and that goes for everything.
An anomaly of sorts, I think that reinvention is a daily task that comes at the end only to prove that you never finish off the way you started.
Give me something new, something exciting.
I am trying my hardest to not let this universe regret me.
And its always a must to stop and enjoy the architecture and admire the art.
Trip, son.
Sincerely, Joseph

My Interests



Meet my half-dog.

In general, I:
enjoy reading.
enjoy listening to, creating and playing music.
enjoy poetry.
prefer night over day.
enjoy being the underdog.
enjoy winning.
enjoy comedy.
enjoy story telling and listening.
enjoy movies and acting.
laugh at inevitability.

I'd like to meet:



Myself in my past life.
Myself in 20 years.
Myself in my next life.

Just to see what kind of condition the world is in and what progress, or lack there of, we have made.

Music:


Is always changing, and on constant rotation.

Television:


My thoughts on television?

"Tell me some of them old lies of yours to make me stop thinking about the truth." -Richard Pryor

Books:


The first step - especially for young people with energy and drive and talent, but not money - the first step to controlling your world is to control your culture. To model and demonstrate the kind of world you demand to live in. To write the books. Make the music. Shoot the films. Paint the art. -Chuck Palahniuk

Heroes:


Creating something new can be terrifying.
It requires willingness - eagerness, even - to relentlessly analyze and critique, stretch and bend, destroy and rebuild.
Nothing can be considered off limits.

More than a Little Curious.

The end result? What happened in order for us to get there and how did all this start? Some questions aren't meant to be answered, I'm afraid. Knowing that some things are just going to happen and k...
