About Me

Musician (kinda). Artist (sorta). Misanthrope. Polymath, of sorts. Gentleman. Mild sociopath. Bourbon enthusiast. Poster child for high IQ not equating to success in the workforce.

My Interests

Baseball, knitting, and clown porn. The rest is arbitrary.

People who say they're too good for television are not only lying, but also really flippin' annoying. Some of my favorites: House, Cheap Seats, MST3K, Saved by the Bell, California Dreams, Legends of the Hidden Temple. The list goes on. As a side note, my bowels tremble in fear, in regards to the planned Star Wars television show. Please, George. No. Please?
