About Me

A retired Broadway singer and the love child of two Republic spies exiled from Franco's Spain. At the age of 15, he lost his virginity to a beautiful runaway dressed as a cabin boy somewhere along the coast of Algeria. Now a ghost-writer for a dime novelist who, unbeknownst to his adoring public, was trampled hunting buffalo on the Western frontier. His heart is ever longing for his lost castaway girl, to whom secret musings are hidden in this ghost-written trash that he must resort to in order to survive. Someday she will read them. Someday, she will finally come upon those words, and know that his world belongs to no one but her..."http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vcGhvdG9idWNrZXQuY 29tLw==" target="_blank"

My Interests

Attending parades full of gentle elephants, dancing bears, fireworks, Turkish fortune tellers, Chinese dragons, hot air balloons full of aged Parmesan, the 26 piece London Chimpanzee orchestra, the Portland chapter of the Hell's Angles, and a half dozen dancing fools. .. src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type=".." .. .. type=".." _uacct = "UA-425612-1"; urchinTracker(); ..

I'd like to meet:

"America is freer today than at any time in the history of human freedom." -Attorney General John Ashcroft September 22, 2003.

Music:

greatest albums that no one seems to listen to:1. Jawbreaker: 24 Revenge therapy (West coast punk. They're an acquired taste). 2. Team Dresch: Personal Best (a bunch of lesbians who rock like nothing else) 3. Magnetic fields: Charm of the highway (a half-dreamy album about lonely souls traveling the old US. Brilliant) 4. Roy Brown: Yo Protesto (Puerto Rican folk music is in some ways more beautiful when you don't understand the words) 5. The decline of British Sea Power (these guys got kicked off stage in Chicago)

Movies:

The ones that have a binding, a cover, & several hundred sheets of paper inside with words writen on them.

Television:

We all talk about how much we hate tv, but we're addicted to our fucking computers.

Books:

everywhere he went he was followed by hundreds of those fucking butterflies

Heroes:

Chumbawumba, ever since they dumped a bucket of ice water in the lap of a politician they didn't like at some upscale banquet.

IMPEACH!!!

The scooter libby pardon (let's face it, this is a pardon) makes me sick. This needs to be the final straw. If we have even an ounce of pride in ourselves as Americans, we can not accept this. I've...
