My Interests

cheese & crackers, grammar fetishism, ampersands & ellipses...

I'd like to meet:

unambiguous friendship loves. good spellers. and real people who can make conversation hilariously and freely.

Music:

i love glam rock and guilty-pleasure sugary pop songs for their pure ludicrosity, punk for it's absolute energy and forward motion, world music for the instrumental and linguistic variety, acoustic and (neo)classical goodness if they divulge true musical prowess, lyricism and hip hop for their cultural and political timeliness, ethnomusicologist field recordings because they awe me and surprise me all the time, and bluegrass if it ACTUALLY sounds like bluegrass (i'm a traditionalist there - god, i love the true drawl and shrillness). the records dearest to me don't need an explanation at all, i think - joy division, pixies, cramps, naked raygun, antipop consortium, bikini kill, stereo total, bauhaus, bad brains...

Movies:

sans soleil, the atomic cafe, cool hand luke, clueless, adaptation, the agronomist, harold and maude, the battle of algiers, spinal tap

Books:

i'm ravenous for them!

Heroes:

my parents * victor hugo * lyle jones * chelsea boehme, my bitchin' best lady friend

This Humboldt guy creeps me out!

So, as many of us OFTEN do, I got a random new friend request from a local. Here is his "about me" and who he wants to meet. This cracks me up and freaks me out at the same time. Buddy, you are the ep...
