About Me

I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom.

My Interests

Super nachos, playing air guitar and air drums (especially air drums), Wikipedia, beer, the BUST lounge, Photoshop, karaoke, obsessive eyebrow tweezing, my cats, animals of all kinds (except for centipedes), pop culture history, Airstreams, googie architecture and signage, 50's, 60's, 70's ephemera, vintage pyrex and fire-king, the great outdoors, retrofuturism, making people laugh, making dumb people uncomfortable, muscle cars, anything campy/kitschy.

I'd like to meet:

Good ol' fashioned, hard-workin', God-fearin', gun-totin', Amurrika-lovin', steak-eatin', Bush-votin', Toby Keith-listenin', truck-drivin', Islam-hatin' folk. I'm only kiddin'.

Music:

Good ol' fashioned, unadultered hard rock--crashing drums, screaming vocals, intense bass, and loudass guitars. I like music from all genres, but this is the stuff that makes my heart flutter, and I can't go more than 24 hours without listening to it. I get violent and my face starts twitching (moreso than usual). I also have a penchant for old school bluesy/folksy music and 60's/70's soul/R&B. It all depends on my mood.

Movies:

Rock Hudson/Doris Day films, Goonies, Cry Baby, Double Indemnity, Dirty Dancing, Edward Scissorhands, Rat Pack movies, A Christmas Story, Harold & Maude, Chocolat, Austin Powers, Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Lemony Snicket's: A Series of Unfortunate Events, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, Murder by Death, Seven Year Itch, Butterfield 8, Niagara, Office Space, Big Fish, The Pink Panther (Peter Sellers versions), Dial M for Murder, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Gilda, and just about anything starring Johnny Depp.

Television:

That 70's Show, Family Guy, My Name is Earl, Freaks and Geeks, Wife Swap (yeah, I know), Dancing with the Stars (yeah, yeah).

Books:

Yeah, I've read books before.

Heroes:

Grandma Jo. She chain smoked in the car with the windows rolled up, but she made some damn good peanut butter/chocolate chip sandwiches. R.I.P.

Correction

Okay, it's "Find Chuck Norris" you put in the google search field, not just "Chuck Norris" like I wrote earlier. I changed it in my original post.
