About Me

The president, he got his war.Folks don't know just what it's for.Nobody gives us a rhyme or reason,Have one doubt they call it treason.We're chicken feathers all, without one nut.Goddammit: Try to make it real, compared to what?— Eugene McDaniels

My Interests

Taking my temperature, showers, playing "fun" with myself, crossword puzzles, Hamurabi's Code, collecting Carson Daily dudery, tanning, hanging out with Cheetah, airbrushing gerbils, Skull, high fiber diets, pluckin' the ole' Jew Harp, skateboarding, cupping my hand tightly over my anus (in the shower) and letting a good fart out while modulating the noise's pitch, throwing a baseball, online poker, Cocomo or Kissime St. Cloud, Kendra Jade, watching Survivor, handstanding and breakin fools open all over da' Hamp-er, jumping Hipsters when they're walking home drunk, or (while hiding in a bush) toss a stick in their bike spokes and then jump them solo-style. There is little, to no mercy in my Dojo.

I'd like to meet:

/param..PART 3 in a __ part series. Shiloh's skating is everything skating should be; stylish and expressive; powerful at times and subtle at others. He's clearly working hard, yet it all comes off as effortlessly smooth. Plus it's set to Echo & The Bunnymen. Really, what more could you ask for?Oh, you want more? Well, talk to this guy:

Music:

Mingus, Bowie, Hank Williams, Beck, I enter The Floyd Void at least once a week, King Crimson, Miles Davis, The Streets?, The Wu, Zeppelin, all things ENO (Brian that is), and you know a whole lot of other stuff. Oh, Wilco!

Movies:

Saw this flick, "Faces" by John Cassavetes. It succeeded in making me feel really uncomfortable. Also reminded me that I'm glad not to be stuck in a loveless marriage in the 1960's US. So that's good, I suppose. March of the Penguins brought me to tears. That's right. March of the Penguins. It's just that to my Brooklyn bound eyes, Antarctica looked so fabulously, wondrously remote and beautiful and here I was stuck to the couch, stoned and having to pause the DVD every time a truck drove by just so that I could hear the movie. Most recently I took in a collection of animated shorts from the '60's at MoMA. Good stuff, eh?

Television:

No more, no less.

Books:

Currently: The Big Sleep, by Raymond Chandler, Steppenwolf by Mr. Hesse, Trawler by Redmond O'Hanlon, and the exceptionally entertaining graphic novel, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.I like Wallace Stegner, John Steinbeck, E.O. Wilson, Haruki Murakami, and a whole lot of other stuff.

Heroes:

This category is wildly out of place.Spiderman?

My Blog

All things bodily.

  Today, I took my first shower in a week. Yes, it did feel good and I WAS happy to wash away the sweat and grime that one acquires in seven days of living. With that said, I was somewhat sad to ...

Locked Out? You Are Forgiven.

 For the second time in two weeks, my friend Ben called today to tell me that he was locked out of his car in the rain. This time he wasn't parked on a hill with the engine running and the trans...
