I am here for Friends

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Either Gandhi or maybe Emily Dickenson. I'd settle for someone living too... like maybes... Barbra Gowdy or Steven Tylor. Actually I'd be interested in meeting just about anyone. Even you, the person reading this. I don't really have what you might call standards, so go ahead and mail me. As long as you're not some kind of weirdo who wants to like, film me in my sleep or something I'm fairly easily aquianted. Yeh.

Music:

So much good music out there. Here is a sampling: Sam Roberts, Hendrix, Rolling Stones, David Usher, Tori Amos, Jewel, Alicia Keys, Steavie Ray Vaun, The Tragically Hip, Tracy Chapman, BB King, The Gypsy Kings, Areosmith, KISS, AC/DC, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, Jefferson Areoplane, Buffalo Springfield, Deep Purple, The Doors, The Beatles, Elvis, Louie Armstrong, Matthew Good, Wil, Natalie McMaster, Enya, Finger Eleven, Alanis, Dixie Chicks NOT William Hong... but... Our Lady Peace, Counting Crows, The Bare Naked Ladies, Tenatious D, Bowser and Blue, Bach, Mozart, Fat Boy Slim, Van Morrison, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Bif Naked, Lisa Lobe, and Holly McNarland can all be counted on for good music, and so can... Andrew Lloyd Weber, Elton John, The Crash Test Dummies, Fiona Apple, T-Bone Walker, Sheryl Crow, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Brian Adams, and the arrogent worms.

Movies:

Sure, I was in a couple of those "moving pictures". I mean, who hasn't been? If Keenu Reeves is a professional film actor we all must be, right? You can catch me in the independent film "Johnny and Johnny" co-staring as the voice of Johnny. See Rubber Duck Films. You can also see me as extra 247 in the hit classic "Air Bud 2: the Golden Receiver" rent it tonight!

Books:

Well I havn't written any YET, but I'm pretty sure one will manifest it self soon if I just stare at the keyboard long enough. It will probably be one of those undiscovered works of genius that lies dorment until long after I'm dead, but then is discovered by snooty acedemics and praised post humerously. YEH YEH! And it'll be about, like, big themes such as space and death and the human condition and it'll touch you. Seriously, big plans for this. Yeh. You should read it when it comes out. I'm almost certain it will be better than Gertrude Stein's "Three Lives", which, in my opinion, wasn't very good reading. It read like a court transcription. But it probably won't be as good as "The Robber Bride" by M Atwood because I'm not really that talented. So, all I can promise is mediocre undiscovered genius. Yeh. I like words...

The sock experiment Stage 1

Those of you who know me may have noticed that all - ALL - of my socks have holes in them. I have noticed myself, contrary to whatever you might hear, and am not pleased with it at all. Perhaps my t...

The Tao Of Birthdays

There is a ying and yang - positive and negative force if you will - to having a birthday. (Mine is coming up on the 30th, so mark your calanders... right!) On the negative side you get older. I ...

In I were a shaman

In tribal times I would have been an aesthetic, a shaman, or a mystic. I might have been revered for constantly delving into the netherworld. My eccentricities, naturally wild hair, erratic sleeping p...

It's not easy when you have the mind of a goldfish

"I swear you have the brain of a goldfish" This has become one of Amber's mantras whenever I forget something that is supposed to be so easy, and so obvious, and so right there in my face that she can...

Why Bill Gates is a giant SOB

Everyone knows Bill Gates blows goats. Lets face it, we all hate him, some of us for different reasons, but we hate the bugger nonetheless. Some of us are jelous of his grotesque wealth and others are...

All about blog 'censorship'... now with 100% piety!

I made a few more mistakes at Jubilations again tonight. I accidently ordered the wrong drink for a lady and I also forgot to hand in a dinner chit. These were particularily frusterating for me becaus...

So I just about lost it on the way to work on wednesday. Granted, things have gotten better as Amber told me they would (yes dear), but to tell the truth I was miserably paralyzed by my fear of failur...
