About Me

I am also on Facebook .
I can't dance. I spend too much time trying to think up clever catch-phrases, critical colloquialisms, and coarse comebacks and not enough time cleaning my cruddy clothes. I'm a big fan of alliteration. I still carry a backpack around because I remember what it's like to be homeless. You never know when you might need your birth certificate at the drop of a hat, right? I think thunderstorms are really neat. I like to think of myself as intelligent, but I'm actually just a college drop-out, so I fake it. I fancy myself a musician, but I'm actually just a drummer, so I fake it. I want it all and I want it now, but I don't actually need much and I already have that anyway (food, shelter, water, copious Zappa records).

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'm easy. I can pretty much get along with anybody. Hypothetically? The Luddites, Frank Zappa, Nikola Tesla, Jesus, A vampire, Gautama Buddha, Mark Mothersbaugh, Carl Jung, Salvador Dali, Igor Stravinsky, KRS One, A Chupacabra, Edmund Gettier, and Friedrich Nietzsche.

Oh, and a live Nine-Banded Armadillo (dasypus novemcinctus). The're fucking adorable!! They can vertically jump up to four feet in the air!! They can cross bodies of water in two ways: inflating their stomachs and intestines with air and floating across, or, sinking down and using their sharp claws to walk across the bottom!! They can hold their breath for six minutes or more!! The word armadillo is Spanish for "little armored one." The only ones I've ever seen look about like this:


Probably because they only jump when they're scared...of an oncoming vehicle, for instance...that probably has a fender about four feet high...since this is Texas...y'all. It makes me sad.

So, I got to run a jackhammer all day long. I use the phrase "got to" sarcastically. My muscles ached so I took an epsom salt bath and listened to "Given to the Rising" by Neurosis in it's entirety. I...
