Did you hear the one about the corduroy pillows?

About Me

Please note that I barely pay attention to MySpace anymore. Basically, I got tired of the spam etc. Just warning ya. And now back to my previous bit of silliness:Oooo, yeah. That's a fun one. Wait, I'm a writer! I'm supposed to come up with something really damn witty and interesting. Something that will impress the Hell out of all my chic and 'cliquey' friends. Something that will shout out to the world here is Matt, and he is smart like, and creative-ish, and and and... sort of interesting! Yup. Ummmm.... let me get back to you on that.

My Interests

Writing, reading, figuring out what I'm doing with my damn life, motorcycles, cooking, playing with Dog, sleeping, trying something new, comic books, Thunderdome, women with tattoos, women without tattoos, Well -Women I suppose - they interest me

I'd like to meet:

Meet? Meet? I'm a socially inept Leo-Cancer mix (or so I've been told by some new-agey girlfriends in the past) which means I have a bad urge to lead and nurture people at the same time, all while basking in my own glory. Sheesh! Who'd want to meet that? But oh, the wit! The wit I tell you! Just add caffeine! And perhaps alcohol!BUT! If you're looking to add somebody to your list so you seem cool for having 300 friends or something, don't bother. You don't look cool. If you really know me, then add me as a friend. If not, and all you really want to do is say hi, that's what email is for. Do not use the damn Add As Your Friend button! Shit, I sound like a crotchety old man don't I? Wonder why that is.

Music:

always changing, but I still love the Police, John Lee Hooker, Audioslave, etc.

Movies:

Blade Runner, Highlander, Finding Forrester, Mad Max, the Quiet Man

Television:

Highlander of old, CSI and Amazing Race

Books:

Why not ask about authors? I like David Brin, Neal Stephenson, Chuck Palahniuk, and a whole lot more. And yeah, I finished the first draft of my own novel. Look for it on the 50 cent rack any day now.

Heroes:

Are there any real heroes left?

My Blog

Scaring the locals!

So what's up?

So, a friend of mine asked why I haven't been posting in my blog here. The short version is I've actually been using LJ for posts instead. Even so, I thought I'd catch up with things here. Sinc...
