"If you suck my soul, I will lick your funky emotions." -George Clinton
Gypsies, monkeys adorned in bright, flowery wreaths, giggling vagabonds, and the Buddha in you. Yeah, you. Human creativity entertains me above all else.

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved...the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and everyone goes ahhhhhhhhh". -Jack Kerouac
