The Good Humor Man... He sees everything

About Me

Well, I live a few miles away from Portland. I love as I put it "Colorific Art" and sketching. I play a mad guitar, string bass and also dabble in keyboards, trumpet, spoons, washboard and kazoo. I've always wanted to make an elaborate mobile. I'm a lover. I love stuff. I tend to have real deep intellectual conversations when I'm really tired, spanning from the cosmos and philosophy to books and relationships. I'm pretty shy, but I suppose having social anxiety doesn't help - I'm just glad I've learned to keep it mostly under control. Its all about state of mind. I have a small case of arachnophobia, but I love guinea pigs. They're so fat and squishy and lovey. My favorite one of all time is listed under my heroes. I own 1.5 pairs tight fucking pants and I couple them with "Beatle boots." I can't believe it's not butter. I drove my Chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry. I can have just one. I usually have trouble falling asleep, unless I am curled in the arms of my sweet. Anyway, I've run out of things to say for now. In the future, I may write a book so watch out for that.

My Interests

Playing guitar and a variety of other instruments, drawing, making music, hangin with friends, color, Vox, Glass bottle Coca-Cola, H-Dub, sweet-ass board games, philosophy, YOU, and all other types of ill shit. and not necessarily in that order ;-)

I'd like to meet:

Definitely not cute and/or cool girls - my conquest there is over. People who aren't deferred by bullshit. Down to earth musicians. And freakin' Bill Murray... That guy is awesome. If you fit these qualities or are Bill Murray, hit me up. Luke Wilson and Wes Anderson, if you read this, I wouldn't mind hearing from you either. Technically my AIM is "GFunkRetroLove" but my internet is currently not in service, so good luck catching me.

Television:

I also like educational history programs, and old school Nickelodeon shows like Salute your shorts/Pete and Pete/Are you Afraid of the Dark, but other than that I really don't watch a whole lot of TV. I don't even have cable or anything.

Beach trip

In my life, the words "beach trip" have been the precursor to some of the most relaxing times of my life.  It's something about the geological phenomenons (at least in size compared to us) clashi...

Osama Bin Goldstein

See if you can figure out what that means. Feel free to leave a comment guessing it. Or altering it slightly to come to your own stunning realization. I'd take both.
