Cunts still run the world

About Me

I will beat you at Tetris.

My Interests

avoiding carbohydrates, riding my beautiful boy's bicycle, booze, selectively making out, forgetting to do stuff, avoidance techniques, being clever, crosswords, smoking, thinking about quitting smoking, never losing my wallet again because it is pure anglophile genius, dive bars, doing things for free, and as of late, drunken political punditry (which i might, someday, parlay into a career; might be a career, if god, and the educational system are willing; also, please suck out the drunk.). I am considering more and more the world of Craigslist and its meal ticket possibilities thanks to the likes of Skinny Jim putting it out there that I am probably meant to hustle rather than work a real job and VL's trailblazing efforts through which I live vicariously.

I'd like to meet:

Richard Dawson

Music:

pulp, grandaddy, hank williams (and III), esquivel, elliott smith, danny elfman scores, the darkness, jackson 5, har-mar superstar, stevie wonder, white stripes, desi arnez, tony bennett, edith piaf, nancy sinatra (esp. when she's duetting with the horrid lee hazlewood), rilo kiley, bobby conn, quintron, the french kicks (but mostly only live), goldcard, mr pacman, atmosphere, outkast, blur, neutral milk hotel, rolling stones, fat elvis, camper van beethoven, the makeup, the zombies, big sandy & the fly rite boys, beck, bright eyes, the shins, weird 60s albums i used to pick up at thrift stores during my lunch hour based on titles and covers alone

Movies:

pee wee's big adventure

Television:

home movies, viva la bam, surgery shows on discovery health, da ali g show, and i hate to admit it, but law & order svu, curb your enthusiasm, the simpsons (on and off), the episode of 227 that pee wee herman was on (oooohhhhwwww {that's a jackee noise} i've never ridden in a silver shadow before), and i'm a sucker for "the american dream" the jackson family mini-series. Ang also introduced me and my brother to the japanese "OH! Mikey" series. You probably wouldn't think that a show featuring only mannequins with english subtitles over japanese dubbing could be super clever and fast paced; you are wrong.

Books:

chick tracts http://www.chick.com/

Heroes:

walter & perry, hooray! a side of coach mcgurk.

I remember a time
