About Me

Check out The Dean Carlson Collection ... featuring merchandise created by me.

I love arbitrarely screaming in fast food restaurants. I enjoy smoking cigarettes while wearing long underwear and standing on porches. Sometimes ya just gotta slap your mouth with a sandwich and thank it later. I frequently have ridiculous facial hair and stupid haircuts. I advertise H.R. Giger and Salvador Dali artwork on my body in ink form. My drink of choice is 20 beers. Fresca, pretty good soda. I like falling asleep in every type of social setting, garnering concern from friends about my health. Walrus teeth, WAY too big. I hate calendars but always need one.

Bother me on AIM...
