About Me

If fish don't swim, they can't absorb oxygen through their gills, and so they drown.I prefer to swim, personally.

My Interests

Myself.Oh yeah and South Africa. Holla!

I'd like to meet:

People who can "chill".Who am I kidding? I spend a good deal of my waking hours trying to avoid "meeting" people.

Music:

Sublime, Tiger Army, Bob Dylan, Elliott Smith, Smashing Pumpkins - too many to mention, but those are the ones that keep coming up.

Movies:

Dazed and Confused would probably be my favorite, but there are too many to narrow it down that much.

Television:

Heroes, Veronica Mars, Lost, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, The Sopranos, The L Word, Lost, Firefly, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Lost, Arrested Development, The Shield, did I mention Lost?

Books:

Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Grendel, American Gods, Ulysses... too many to mention. I tried. Anything by J.D. Salinger but mostly his "other" stuff. 9 Short Stories = perfect. Lately, really enjoyed The Diamond Age by Neil Stephenson and The Feast of Love by Charles Baxter, also been digging Pulp by Charles Bukowski and The Red and the Black by Stendhal. And any short sketches by Alan Bennett are awesome. Bahhh I hate choosing, I left so much stuff out. Oh oh oh. Mr. Norrel and Jonathan Strange is a really good one too.

My Blog

I feel obligated...

... to post a blog. I hate people who don't have any blogs whatsoever, it really cuts down on the available content on their page.   and now I'm going to eat some toast with Cactus Marmalade and ...
