smoking, lipstick, leather, pvc, boots, heels, stockings, corsets, burlesque, the bizarre, breath control, gloves, blunts, psychology, erotica, simulacra, tease and denial, photography, making music, creating art, making jewelry, philosophy, neurochemistry ... just getting started with my profile so it will take a while to flesh this part out! ;)
smoking enthusiasts, humanists, and to quote Neil from the Young Ones, "anyone really cool you can find." I'm still working on my new smoke profile here, so pardon the dust (or is it ash?;)
Hey - I make music! Check it at my MySpace Music Profile ... while you do that, I'll be compiling a list of the thousands of bands and artists that I like, it's gonna take a while!
David Lynch and Tod Browning are my favorite directors... list of films to come soon...
Trailer Park Boys ("If I can't smoke and swear, I'm fucked!"), The Simpsons, Futurama, HBO docs, Carnivale (RIP, sniff), classic films on TCM. Heroes. Old Star Trek. I don't get to watch TV very often though, more often than not when I do it's a DVD...
Get thee to MaggieEstep.com to discover a world of literary yum-ness with your host, Ruby Murphy. Why is Ruby's psychiatrist's husband's leg in the fish tank in the Good Doctor's waiting room? Hmmm... also, various philosophy texts - itching to read Foucault's Madness & Civilization - and the works of Dr. Peter Kramer, who is a fucking genius. Just finished reading THE BEST AWFUL by Carrie Fisher, the Queen of Wordplay. To Kill A Mockingbird is my favorite classic book. Lenny Bruce's "How To Talk Dirty and Influence People". Of course, Ralph Waldo Emerson's essays, including the seminal "Self-Reliance". Various Buddhist texts.
Anyone who has integrity in this day and age. Non-solipsistics. Ralph Waldo Emerson. David Lynch. My mother. People who spell correctly (eschew the grocer's apostrophe!). David Lynch again. Maggie Estep, the Sex Goddess of the Western Hemisphere. Anyone who works toward the greater good. Also: Socrates. Plato. Seneca. And Sisyphus. That fucker pushed the rock up the hill and it fell back on him over and over again, and yet, he was still happy? Go figure. That deserves a listing as hero if anything does.
