About Me

Formerly a bourbon-fueled absurdist, raconteur, and man about town, currently a sardonic workaholic (I just can't live without workahol) occasionally seeking meaning in the finer things in life...

I'm a career hacker, I break into bank, financial, and credit card transaction systems professionally, which is probably a lot less interesting than it sounds. Sometimes as part of all this I physically break in, or scam people over the phone, which is almost as interesting as it sounds...

I'm a pop culture fanatic.

I know a lot about cult films, its pretty much an obsession, and I've seen lots of them, talk about them a lot, and I don't mind discussing wether you'd rather be a normal zombie or a "zombie atomicos" if that's your thing... in fact it takes relatively little prodding to get me to do so.

I was searching for the Holy Grail but stopped when it got trendy, and I am, of course, an outlaw in Peru.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd dig meeting anyone:
Who likes good whiskey and bad zombie flicks and can spot quality offerings in both

also a dwarf who rides around on a giant chicken, those folk what train albino chimps in the fine art of kabuki theater, the severed re-animated head of Ingmar Bergman, a foul-mouthed puppet advocating unrestricted and unilateral handgun usage, and a super-intelligent lizzard who is hell bent on world domination...

And of course Sam Waterston of the popular TV series Law and Order...
