You! Cake or death?

About Me

There once was a boy who picked his nose a lot. He eventually grew up and stopped picking his nose...mostly. But other habits stayed with him - daydreaming, having fun at any cost, believing in the inherit goodness of people, wild imaginations, true love, an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, a fascination with everything, an open mind and above all, an eagerness to create.

My Interests



I'd like to meet:

"We go through life with our antennas bouncing off one another, continuously on ant autopilot, with nothing really human required of us. Stop. Go. Walk here. Drive there. All action basically for survival. All communication simply to keep this ant colony buzzing along in an efficient, polite manner. "Here's your change." "Paper or plastic?' "Credit or debit?" "You want ketchup with that?" I don't want a straw. I want real human moments. I want to see you. I want you to see me. I don't want to give that up. I don't want to be ant." Twitter:

Theres only one me, and Im stuck with him.

Years fly by in a maelstrom of change and as I ride along side of it, I continue to uphold the agreement I have with time to continue to metaphoresis into someone I never was and will never be again....

unbeknownst.

Unbeknownst to most at the time, there is always a singularity of moment, of change that alters ones life so completely that a chapter ends and gives rise to another. A lot has changed in the last few...

Identity. I seem to come back to this idea a lot. This time I come back to it pissed off. I own a 1971 orange Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu convertible.  A classic car. It's been my only source of tr...

The Ecstasy of Influence

I was introduced to Jonathan Lethem at my desk while I sat in my office casually listening to my morning podcasts while gleefully doing what others refer to as "work." The more I listened to this inte...

not quite a movie review.

I saw a scary movie today. I usually don't like movies that are based around adultery or cheating. They are usually disturbing, contrived, and generally in poor taste. Plus, I don't subscribe to chea...
