We have a barrel but no cups.

About Me

I left my hometown for the orient, the orient for the desert, the desert for a vineyard, and the vineyard for the city. So here I am.
I like: crazy wisdom, pizza, girls named after places, the blue hour, bingo halls, and quadraphonic sound.
I dislike: the sound ice makes, irony, girls named after virtues, the three a.m. chill, and gates that only open after you punch in a code.

My Interests

I enjoy life and its various attachments and spin off miniseries. Right now I am learning by doing: Farming, home repair, Prospecting, wine making, and video editing. it's a gas alright.

I'd like to meet:

the last of the drive-in junkies, and the rest of us freaks of happenstance.

I'd like to meet partners in crime, and anyone who wants to colaborate on an art project. (no jerks)

Music:

I love the blues, like Son House, Robert Johnson, Elmore James, Holin Wolf, and John Lee Hooker.

I love rock an roll like The Kinks, The Zombies, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and the White Stipes.

And I like Roots Country, Folk, and Americana like Hank Williams (Sr.), Johnny Cash, Woodie Guthrie, Joe Falcon, Beck, and Bob Dylan.

And I love the Other Stuff like Tom Waits, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, The Ramones, The Magnetic Fields, Iron and Wine, Os Mutantes, Deltron 3030, Leonard Cohen, The Flaming Lips, Janis Joplin, Cat Power, Jolie Holland, Cab Calloway and Manu Chau.

Movies:

I watch more movies than most people.
I like directors like Terry Gilliam, Akira Kurisawa, Lars Von Trier, Spike Jones, Wong Kar-Wai, and others

and movies like Kung Fu Hustle, Old Boy, Six String Samurai, Notorious, The Killer, Triplets of Belleview, Red Hot American Summer, shit like that.

Television:

Sifl and Olly, Mr. Show, Kids in the Hall, Carnivale, Liquid Television, Max Headroom, Joy of Painting and a healthy love for the O.C., the most unintenionaly funny show on TV.

Books:

I'm esspecially into: Pynchon, Robbins, Chandler, Salinger, Dick, Vonnegut, Rumi, Thompson, Stephenson, Bukowski, and one dollar pulp.

Heroes:

Bob Ross, who perfectly embodied the American Dream.
