About Me

I'm a strange individual (or so I'm Told) who works in a used record shop and can confirm all the horrors in the film "High Fidelity" are true, even worse at times. I am a music and political freak who has come to the conclusion that I despise both the Republicans and Democrats for the simple reason that they are all worthless hacks devoted to a lame-duck two system idealism that can never come to any agreement based on partisian loyalty. Enough about that. Who really gives a shit anyway? I grew up in Minnesota and would take Winter over Summer for my own personal reasons. My music tastes are all over the map, and I hate music elitists because I have to deal with those bastards daily. Music is sound, and if it sounds good, then it's good. It is as simple as that.
