These Times Will Reinvent Me

About Me

Me? Im 26, living in Sherman Oaks, California. Im confused by life in general; and as such, mock it mercilessly.

I write, act, and do all the other possible Hollywood cliches you can imagine with the exception of believing that Barack Obama descended from above to heal my wounds.For the first time in forever I now recognize my flaws and am not bothered by them in the least. I am pretty damned comfortable with who I am these days. Just looking to build, and move forward. That's about it.I think spiders are beautiful and gross at the same time. I am hesitant to kill them because I always think their Mom might be watching and will plot to revenge bite me as I sleep.I haven't had a really good steak in a long time and I want one.I love cloudy and overcast days, and am convinced that has something to do with an almost purely Scottish DNA history.I wish people would shut the fuck up the movies. And no, "people" is not a polite phrasing meaning Black people. Everybody does that shit now. Shut the fuck up and watch what you payed for.I love the fact that the people who work at Cold Stone Creamery have to sing for a dolla'.I can't ride a bike or swim. I blame this on general ineptitude and my philosophy of "If at first you don't succeed, quit."I think the Coen brothers should be put in charge of making every movie on the planet.I wish I knew the death touch.That is all...THIS (Below) is a preview of my book Red State, Blue State available now as an E-book on Lulu.com.Hardcovers will be available shortly. So please swing by and pick up a copy.I don't mean to brag, but it is single handedly the best political satire about the false dichotomy of our current 2 party system written in the style of a Dr. Seuss book that you find this year.


My Interests

Fiddlin' and Diddlin. ( a society of square dance / masturbation enthusiasts, of which I am an avid patron)Comedy. I dont just do it career wise. It really is the most important thing in the world to me. The ability to take life, and twist it slightly, to create a new and more positive reality is the most amazing gift in the universe.Im also very into sounding like a douchebag when I talk about comedy.Im huge into politics. I am basically an independant, but I believe strongly in most principles of the Libertarian party.Doing all the activist type stuff that comes along with it. Membership in the party, member of the Free State Project etc...oh...and Boh. Lots and lots of Boh

I'd like to meet:

Chill folks. But not chill as in, "dont give a fuck" waste their life types. But people that can relax and take a joke. People that go to bars to savor a drink and the people they share them with. NOT the ones who go just to get laid, and when they don't get laid, then change their goal to picking a fight or crushing cans against their forehead.People who want change, but not at the expense of other peoples rights. Free spirits. Free thinkers. Those who are truly tolerant, even of intolerance. Comedy fans. Armchair philosophers. People who hate mainstream entertainment, not because it's mainstream, but because it sucks.Old black ladies. Responsible drunks and druggies. The kind that don't piss on, puke on, or steal your stuff. Lithuanians. Conservatives from San Francisco.Liberals from Texas. (Not so fast Austin residents) People that aren't pundits, but should be.Freaks. Artists. Except poets. Your poetry sucks. Your comments are predictable in their unpredictability. Your meter is tired. You have to work a double at the "buzz cafe" in an hour. I suggest you go now.The person who got run over by the tank in Tienamen square.Those without ego. Those with so little ego that they can admit that we all have SOME ego. Travelers. Rail-riders. Hobos with stories. The truly insane. Those who are perfectly sane, but are labeled as otherwise. Those who redefine insanity. Those who show we're all insane. The robot from Short Circuit. The folks at Chic-Fil-A. Ron Paul. Ron Jeremy. Old friends I havent seen in years. New friends. Your mom, but just for lunch. Nothing offensive.The people who grew an ear on a mouse's back. The mouse with an ear on its back.Billionaire philanthropists. Aliens. Supermodels.....If at all possible, supermodel aliens.......and you, you Magnificent Bastard!

Movies:

Pulp Fiction, The Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy, Frailty...........oh yes and Ishtar.

Television:

Anything in the block of bliss on Fox. Simpsons King of the Hill Family Guy Curb Your Enthusiasm. Invader Zim. Kids in the Hall. Scrubs. Anything on the discovery or History Channel. Minus all that interior design nonsense during the day.

Books:

Heroes:

Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, my Parents. and the guys at jellybelly....It tastes exactly like (insert anything here) HOWD THEY DO THAT?!?!?!
