About Me

Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.

Music:

Weaned on Sunday hardcore matinees at The Rat

Books:

Dictionary of Misunderstood, Misused & Mispronounced Words, ee cummings, Abnormal Psychology, My Side of the Mountain, A Literate Passion
