live, work, eat, sleep music (see below)... i love a good movie... everything from the godfather to amelie... i love living in new york city more than i love living... i snap pictures all over town (but my camera recently disapeared into thin air)... crazy artsy shit, and some standard almost touristy nonsense... mostly i love to photograph bands performing live... it's become a second job... a second job that doesn't pay yet (but i'm figuring that part out)...
i just got my first major publication... this was in the art & leisure section of the NYTimes on 11/12...
I'd like to meet:
it would be easier to make a list of people i don't want to meet...1) webcam girls
2) god awful bands
3) god awful clubs (especially ones in cities i never visit)
4) products or services (i find it repulsive that you would think i want to be friends with
a cell phone)
5) anyone (except andrew & crystal) who thinks i look like the lead singer of maroon 5...

Movies:
Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room...!!! And may their first child be a masculine child... Phone's ringing, Dude... clap for alaska...! Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony... i've become divorce from the world. i've lost touch with the world... today, war is too important to be left to politicians. They have neither the time, the training, nor the inclination for strategic thought. I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids... Mikey, why don't you tell that nice girl you love her? I love you with all-a my heart, if I don't see-a you again soon, I'm-a gonna die... Yeah. Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I may have a better one. How about, I give you the finger, and you give me my phone call... You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. These fucking amateurs... "Yes gentlemen, they are on their way in, and no one can bring them back. For the sake of our country, and our way of life, I suggest you get the rest of SAC in after them. Otherwise, we will be totally destroyed by Red retaliation. Uh, my boys will give you the best kind of start, 1400 megatons worth, and you sure as hell won't stop them now, uhuh. Uh, so let's get going, there's no other choice. God willing, we will prevail, in peace and freedom from fear, and in true health, through the purity and essence of our natural... fluids. God bless you all" and he hung up... the armory. sounds so heavy, and ponderous... the arrrrmory... let me tell you what like a virgin is all about. the whole song is a metaphor for big dicks... Sonofabitch! Do you know who I am? I'm Moe Greene! I made my bones when you were going out with cheerleaders...!!! Guns. Lots of guns... Saturday, Donny, is Shabbos, the Jewish day of rest. That means that I don't work, I don't get in a car, I don't fucking ride in a car, I don't pick up the phone, I don't turn on the oven, and I sure as shit don't fucking roll! SHOMER SHABBOS!
