I'm a cold blooded motherfucker, introverted to the point that no one REALLY knows me, and for the most part sexually deviant. I ♥ my mom, my cats, aquariums, music, reading, drawing, smoking cigs and cigars, a variety of illicit substances, D&D (you don't need to tell me I'm a geek, I already know) and board & card games. I always lose though. Especially at Scrabble. Especially when I'm not sober. I'm a motherfucker at Aggravation though sober or not, I'll fuck you up. I don't ever feel bad when people cry. For real.
Art
I'm an off and on artist (6 months on 6 months off). Eventually I'm going to make another myspace page for my strip. Collecting wise I'm all about nice concert flyers, especially silkscreens and giclees. I've got a small collection going but don't really have the funds to frame anything. Give me sympathy in the form of postal money orders. Please.
Aquaria
I've got years and years of experience keeping all types of fresh and saltwater fish and not to mention about 7 years experience in the industry. My favorites are discus, "nice" african cichlids (psuedotropheus can fuck right off), arowanas, uarus and some other stuff just no bread and butter. For real I like talking about this stuff but don't really know anyone else who's knowledgeable and available for discussion. I like helping beginners so if you have a question feel free to ask.
Cognac
I absolutely adore fine cognac. Currently money is tight so the best I can afford is a Marnier or Remy VSOP. The best bottle I've ever bought was a 1/5 of Remy Martin extra. Mmmmm. Remy 1738 is really good too for the price. Anything better than a VSOP I'll drink neat but otherwise it's rocks all the way.
Food
I quite possibly could have the worst dietary habits on the planet. I practically live off of diet Mountain Dew and candy bars. I'm a fair cook when I have the motivation. My chili is the shit. Yes it has noodles, I'm poor and from Kentucky :( .
Games
Aggravation, Axis & Allies, Chess, Clue, Drangonlance, Forgotten Realms 2nd or 3rd edition, Life, Monopoly, Risk, Rummy, Scene It, Scrabble, Skip-bo, Stratego, Trivial Pursuit
Video Games
I only spend probably about 2-3 hours a month playing but I am the shit at Super Mario Bros and will challenge anybody. I can beat Super Mario World in under 2 hours, and have beaten Super Mario 1 straight through with the star boards without dying. Try and top that. Also I like all the Zelda games and SNES Final Fantasy games.
I'd like to meet:
Everything's Charlie. 1934-
"Look down at me and you see a fool. Look up at me and you see a god. Look straight at me and you see yourself."
"Mr. and Mrs. America - you are wrong. I am not the King of the Jews nor am I a hippie cult leader. I am what you have made me and the mad dog devil killer fiend leper is a reflection of your society.... Whatever the outcome of this madness that you call a fair trial or Christian justice, you can know this: In my mind's eye my thoughts light fires in your cities."
"I may have implied on several different occasions to several different people that I may have been Jesus Christ, but I haven't decided yet what I am or who I am."
The Beast 666. 1875-1947
"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law."
"To the eyes of a god, mankind must appear as a species of bacteria which multiply and become progressively virulent whenever they find themselves in a congenial culture, and whose activity diminishes until they disappear completely as soon as proper measures are taken to sterilize them."
"Intolerance is evidence of impotence."
Hombre Invisible. 1914-1997
"1. Never give anything away for nothing. 2. Never give more than you have to give. 3. Always take everything back if you possibly can."
"Look down at my filthy trousers, haven't been changed in months...The days Glide by strung on a syringe with a long thread of blood...I am forgetting sex and all sharp pleasures of the body- a grey, junk-bound ghost. The Spanish boys call me El Hombre Invisible- the Invisible Man..."
"I sat back letting my mind work without pushing it. Push your mind too hard and it will fuck up like an overloaded switchboard, or turn on you with sabotage...And I have no margin for error."
"If you're doing business with a religious son of a bitch, get it in writing. His word isn't worth shit, not with the Good Lord telling him how to fuck you on the deal."
"Junk is the ultimate merchandise. The junk merchant does not sell his product to the consumer, he sells the consumer to the product. He does not improve and simplify his merchandise, he degrades and simplifies the client."
"Take a shot in front of D.L. Probing for a vein in my dirty bare foot...Junkies have no shame...They are impervious to the repugnance of others. It is doubtful if shame can exist in the absence of sexual libido...The junky's shame disappears with his nonsexual sociability which is also dependent on libido...The addict regards his body impersonally as an instrument to absorb the medium in which he lives, evaluates his tissue with the cold hands of a horse trader."
"Take Bradley the Buyer. Best narcotics agent in the industry. Anyone would make him for junk. I mean he can walk up to a pusher and score direct. He is so anonymous, grey and spectral the pusher don't remember him afterwards."
"Bill's Naked Lunch Room...Step right up...Good for young and old, man and bestial. Nothing like a little snake oil to grease the wheels and get a show on the track Jack. Which side are you on? Fro-Zen Hydraulic? Or you want to take a look around with Honest Bill?"
