My war...

About Me

I'm a 26 year old from Fargo, ND. When I'm not playing bass for GREEN FOG VIGILANTE (thrash/sludge/punk) or THE WRONG MEN (swanky party-time Rock-N-Roll), I am either working as a cook, sleeping, watching movies or playing PS2.
I drive a rusty old truck. I hate shaving, so sometimes I have a beard. I put ketchup on damn near everything. I still read comic books. In the entire US, only 12 people have the same name as me (first and last). I've been pierced in 23 or 24 places, and including re-do's when I take them out, over 1OO+ times. I have a shitload of pets. I hate washing clothes but I often wear boots, so sometimes my socks get crunchy. I think that since I've grown up, the current line-up of Saturday morning cartoons TOTALLY SUCKS. I once seriously contemplated being a professional wrestler.For those of you that don't know, I went to Texas last year to hang out with a few friends and play a zombie in the soon-to-be-released movie RISEN , hence all the gore pictures...
I hate my job, I hate corporations, I hate the police.FREE THE WEST MEMPHIS 3
