I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Butcher, Baker, Candlestick maker, Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy,I am a bunch of things to a bunch of different people, to some I am a record label guy, to others a teacher, sometimes i am a writer, more often then not I am a producer(in a whole mess of mediums). Design seems to pay some bills as well. Most of it inolves music or media of some kind.I work a lot, so I never see friends, but I always want to but it seems that I get the chance once a month at Ox-OP openings, ah for the hazy crazy carefree days of youth... come to think of it I never really had those...Beyond work, I collect a ton of stuff. But not so much as to fill up the house, I consume media, think somewhat abstract thoughts, go to the the movies, fight crime... the usual

My Interests

Art: visually: Tim Biskup, Jeff Soto, Banksey, Willam Blake,Shag, Giant, Scharff, Warhol, Movies: Tashlin, Welles, all the regulars. music see below things that are orange, comics that involve good guys beating up bad guys, sleeping, eating, politics, oh and solving mysteries with the help of a talking dog, and the grooviest gang of kids you'll ever meet....

I'd like to meet:

someone who will hand me a small trailer park full of cash
