About Me

“Beware of the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry, [who] infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How will I know? For this I have done. And I am Julius Caesar.” Live life to the fullest, make choices, and never look back.I am a filmmaker in the great state of Alaska. My primary occupation is serving as a Lighting Director, Key Grip, or Gaffer. I think just about everything else interesting about is mentioned somewhere on this page, so if this much interested you, read on, if not, oh well. Choose wisely.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Chewbacca.The people who invented olive loaf, pimento loaf, pickle loaf, and all other "meat" flavor loaves. That one guy who lives over there. The old guy from the other place. Anyone who has ever had to endure the excruciating pain and wrath of the man who has a Salad Shooter for an arm. Grandmas who can shoot ermines from their left eyes, and any association that might exists that embraces such wonderful people. All collectors of either horseradish, horse apples, or horse windshields. People who make fun of me when I am horse, or have a stick poking out of my neck for no apparent reason. Sally (the one with the bad breath). Dr. Seuss. Anyone that can spit water from their nostrels. People who can calm jittery squirrels. People who can communicate with corn.

My Blog
