Only A Lad

Fuck all them people I don't need no excuse for being what I am. Do you hear me then?

About Me


My Interests

screenwriting, acting, editing, music, cartoon, skeletons, old stuff, new stuff, bike riding, thinking, dreaming, sleeping, dogs, cats, cherry coke, other stuff.

I'd like to meet:

Old friends, new friends, anbody who shares the same idiotsyncraties as me, but you can your own if you like, Anyone that likes me for who I am (But if I'm being an asshole for whatever reason, you can hate me) and anyone that can make me laugh til it hurts. Famous people would be Peter Gabriel, Danny Elfman, Dana Gould, John K. (Creator of Ren and Stimpy) Robert Crumb, Henry Rollins, Johnny Rotten, Kate Bush, Robert Rodriguez, Quintin Tarantino, Loyd Kaufman, Matt Stone and Trey Parker,steve Buscemi, Gary Oldman, Billy Bob Thorton, Samuel L. Jackson, Natalie Portman, Rose Mcgowan, and getting to meet Dr. Dot in person would be cool. It would have been cool to hang with Frank Zappa, Peter Lorre, Phil Hartman, Chris Farley, Ben Franklin and Marylin Monroe. Maybe if I go psychotic I can have them as imaginary friends, even the living ones, that saves up the trouble of having to deal with real people. I'm writing a story based on that idea.

Television:

The Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy, Ren and Stimpy, The Critic, Kids In The Hall, Seinfeld, Duckman, Liquid Television, Monty Python's Flying Circus,Married With Children, CSI, Titus, Daily Show, House, The Office, My Name is Earl, Myth Busters. I really don't watch that much television though. I only catch a little at a time, and would rather wait until stuff comes out on Dvd.

Heroes:

I admire my family for the great things they have done, I admire anyone who is not afraid to think a certain way even though it might offend a bunch of people, and I admire anyone that is true to their word.
