Everything is Absolutely True. Especially the Opposite.

About Me

yo soy el padre exquisita queimada dos campos.

My Interests

Words- especially some of the nouns.

I'd like to meet:

Poets, Exiles in Western PA, people who think there's just something about a river, artists who have an actual work ethic, the righteously indignant, political extremists, those who still believe in editing, the anxious and snide, misfit toys, third-eye types, those who don't worry about "glass half full/half empty"- it's a wrong-sized glass, that one guy....i forget his name....the one with the face on his head....no not him, her!Anyone willing to drink the kool-aid.

Music:

Sergei Prokofiev, Thelonious Monk, Gustav Mahler, Anton Bruckner, Bob Dylan, Violent Femmes, Elvis Costello, Talking Heads, Hilary Hahn, Buckley V. Valeo, John Coltrane, Syd Barrett, Cole Porter, XTC, Tom Waits, Anton Webern; essentially that 1/10th of a percent of any genre that actually matters

Movies:

Wings of Desire, 8 1/2, Citizen Kane, Unforgiven, Star Wars, Fulci, George Romero, Terry Gilliam, Federico Fellini, Westerns, Zombies...

Television:

DVD's

Books:

Emily Dickinson, e e cummings, Wallace Stevens, T.S. Eliot, Robinson Jeffers, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Amy Lowell. Other people- mostly dead.

Heroes:

Prometheus, Rama, Gilgamesh, Paul Bunyan...
