I WASN'T LIKE EVERY OTHER KID, YOU KNOW, WHO DREAMS OF BECOMING AN ASTRONAUT.
I WAS ALWAYS MORE INTETERESTED ON WHAT BARK WAS MADE OUT OF ON A TREE
Also....other interests are:
Trying not to, but always dissapointing friends & loved ones with occupational choices- :(
Keeping pleasure strictly extra-curricular-
Going to "GOTH-NIGHT" on Tuesdays @ Vine Bar and being Ostracized--
Preparing Drinks @ BLVD 3,-Crooning @ Barney's Beanery on Sunday-Karaoke-Night-
Playing the Jazz Flute, Doing Yoga, Keeping up with Current News & Events,
Listening to NPR at Top Volume in my Car-Trying to master the noble art of self abuse-
Trying to comprehend World Politics, Reading, Driving in Gridlock, Making Inflatable Furniture, Harassing Solicitors
Avoiding Bums on the Street; Cat-Calling & doing "Drive-By-Wedding-Proposals" to the Trannies on Santa Monica Blvd.
Eating Peanut Butter & Nutella; Shopping @ Nature Mart.
Driving around L.A. for Castings--
Challenging my acting chops with Howard Fine, Margie H. & Lesly Kahn---In short, I'm a pretty acerbic & sarcastic tall drink of water--
But deep down, just a kid at heart-
I'd like to meet:
Someone with fathomless eyes & a luxuriantly foul mouth.
Music:

Movies:
Have to say, LA Vie E Bella, Pulp Fiction, Serpico, All James Bonds, The original Star Wars, Rennt Lola Rennt, Das Geheimis, Metropolis, Amadaeus, A Mighty Wind, Waiting For Guffman, Fellini's 8 1/2, the Night Porter, ah, I quit, too many to really share! Much respect to all the Jean Claude Van Damme films--- He really trained hard to get in that good of shape....no matter how much CHARLIE he consumed....we gotta give him props---But, on a side note--- you gotta respect the German Wiemar Era, they were really ahead of their time, no?? Also, French Cinema is moving up, plus films from Latin and South America have my respect too-I'm really against all the new Disney and Pixar cartoons- These films are too high brow for kids, and instead of focusing on children, these films are trying to rake in the $$$, so really, the compromise is the kids- not cool-
Television:
"24" 3rd season, Because I was on it!!!! Nip/Tuck, yep, cause I was on it too! Murder She Wrote, the Greatest American Hero, The A-Team, (quit your, jibba'jabber!)The Office, Monty Phython, Faulty Towers, Benny Hill, Webster, Family Ties, etc., etc.
Books:
Any Saul Bellow Novel, but Love Bret Easton Ellis & Chuck Palanuck. E. Hemingway, Jack K., And of course, Delillo is the man too! Charles Bukowski is one I'd like to live vicariously through- Ayn Rand knew her shit too- Sometimes I really feel like I'm Peter Keating, and other times I feel like Howard Roark's Doppel-ganger- Know what I mean!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Heroes:
Mom & Dad, Hal & Jane Bernard, Ed & Evelyn Boeger. Love you all so very much----!!!!! My cousin Greg Boeger for establishing BOEGER WINERY in Northern California- Also Gerard Depardieu for saving French Wine and those smaller vineyards-
