I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Damned near all of my friends, and even my own fucking son have MySpace accounts, so it's about time that I too join the masses, eh? So, if you want to know more about me, just poke around and read all that's written here. You'll figure it out. Hey, check out my pics, it's a pretty good visual history of my life. Anyway, with all that having being said, I'll just leave it at that for now and get on with my life. And so should you...

My Interests

...movies, punk rock music, sex, alcohol, drums, the internet, underground culture, my life, my work... you know, the usual suspects...

...one really funny website is The White House if you can either take (or give) a good political joke...

... since I really have no use for white chicks, Asian Sirens is one website I check out often enough...

...you can find hours of fun at Engrish.com if your stomach can stand the pain of laughing so hard...

...I still have some close ties to Japan, so Japundit is one of the various websites I check out on a regular basis...

...since Christians really piss me off with their bigotry, Landover Baptist Church is a really fun website for me to check out once in a while, you should too...

...all in all, well, everything that catches my interest...

I'd like to meet:

Anybody who, like me, is not normal.
You see, I can't handle normal people for shit. I just cannot stand them being around me at all. You know, normal Christian people who go to church every Sunday, all full of love and tolerance, yet practice hypocrisy, bigotry, and hatred every other day of the week. Normal people who think that Paula Abdul is talented, and genuinely give two shits about who happens to be doing well this week on American Idol.
I can deal with freaks, perverts, punks, heretics, hippies, anarchists, etcetera: they all have their heads screwed on straight, for the most part. But normal people just need to get the fuck off the planet. Fuck 'em all, in the neck!

Music:

...for the most part, but not always, loud and fast...

...All, Black Flag, Black Sabbath, The Blasters, Buzzcocks, Circle Jerks, The Clash, Concrete Sox, Dag Nasty, Dead Kennedys, Declino, The Distillers, DON DON, Flitox, Fuck Geez, Fugazi, Gism, Heresy, Idora, The Jam, Jimi Hendrix, Jingo De Lunch, Johnny Cash, Lip Cream, Mink Oil, Misfits, Motorhead, Nukey Pikes, Operation Ivy, The Pretenders, The Polysics, Raw Power, Rose Rose, Roy Orbison, Shonen Knife, Social Distortion, Spermbirds, Spinal Tap, Stikky, Urban Terror, X, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera...

...and of course, all the bands I've ever played in, past and present: R@g, Dead Cops, No Lip, SiC, Slowpoke, Grissle, Black44, Legions In Exile, Satanus Divinorum, and S.U.R.G.E.

...right or wrong, I tend to stay stuck (for the most part, at least) in my generation, the 80s, at least when it comes to my music...

Movies:

...(almost) any film from Alejandro Jodorowsky, such as The Holy Mountain, Santa Sangre, and El Topo - I didn't much care for Tusk, but Fando & Lis was okay for what it is...
...really bad little cult movies like Terminatrix, Emanuelle And The Last Cannibals and Ilsa: She Wolf Of The SS that are pretty much just softcore pornography in disguise...
...lots of Asian ghost stories, like Temegotchi, Ringu, The Eye, One Missed Call, and Ju-on: The Grudge...
...pretty much the entire catalog of Akira Kurosawa movies, but especially the movies with Toshiro Mifune like Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, and Sanjuro...
...twisted fucking exploitive horror movies, of which there are simply just too many to list here...
...really fucking good classic movies: old, new, and obscure, such as Casablanca, Walk The Line, Samsara, Metropolis, The Right Stuff, Whale Rider, M, 9 Souls, Salvador, and so on, and so on...
...and of course, whatever else might happen to catch my eye.....

Television:

...only when I'm bored, or in need of some background noise to help drown out the voices in my head, even then I usually gravitate to the movie stations, or sometimes, I just watch any good DVD that might happen to be laying around.....

Books:

...the subversive kind, mostly non fiction...

...at least one book I've read several times over for the past decade or so is The History Of Magic And The Occult, a book that reads more like a college textbook than not, but it's really helped me to be objective when it comes to organized religion...

Heroes:

...they're all dead by now, Joe Strummer, Fritz Lang, Jimi Hendrix, Stanley Kubrick, Peter Lorre, Janis Joplin...

...all dead.....

My Blog

MicorUSA

Ha! I've been seeing classified ads for MicorUSA all over the place. The ads states that they're looking for cable technicians. You know, data, phone... that sort of thing. Fair enough. One thing I do...

reading glasses

They say that it's normal. Oh, well. I actually noticed this a couple of years ago, but have been resisting it. It's all about growing old, and having the muscles in the eyes relax a bit. So, the end ...

Straight Time Productions

Some of you out there might remember the name Straight Time Productions. It's the name I used back in the 1980s. Well, I'm bringing it back, and expanding it all. Also, the bulk of my 'blogging will b...

so, I wonder whatever the fuck happened to....

You know, there's a few people from my past that I sometimes wonder about. It's mostly a case of old friends I haven't heard from for like, forever. But sometimes, it's people I only knew for a brief ...

white pride

I saw a little Nissan pickup truck on the road yesterday. On the back window of the truck, there was a sticker that said "White Pride" with little Nazi "SS" marks as the quotation marks.So, my gut ins...

Okay... found a new bassist for the band! Cool! His name is Kale, and we've already heard from some female fans of the band about him in a very positive way, so, 'nuff said on that account... Come che...

...been a while

Okay, it's been a while, so here's what's new: I no longer work at AVPS. No, instead, I work at two part time jobs, both of which pay me more per hour than any other full time job I've ever had, ...

new job

Okay, I haven't quit my day job, yet. No, I've merely taken on another job to help make ends meet. To be blunt, I'm delivering New Times every week on Wednesday evenings. Hey, it's not a bad gig if yo...

dropping the tag line

I'm dropping my tag line for now. You know, the "Fastest Drum in the West" tag line. Having a reputation to live up to kind of fucks me up. It's like knowing that I need to play fast, and in the end,...
