About Me


img src="http://hotlink.myspacecdn.com/images01/5/ca377mildly happy but unstable. loose-fitting, to say the least. sandles only add to my laziness. the comedy is: i put myself here. smile and face are never in the same rooom at the same time. shit in human form. heavy doses of lithium will leave a person speaking bluntly. Claire Danes = the ultimate aphrodesiac. there has to be some soma in your body, it can't all be cerebral. believe me, you'll go insane. now just shut up and follow my orders like a good German! i got greatness in grasp. virtue in defeats. just like Richard Nixon.

My Interests

i buried my mailbox in the front yard. like indians with bows against machine guns. even though i only wait tables it sometimes feels like i'm working in the mines. who the hell am i anyway? if i find out, you'll be the first to know.

I'd like to meet:

this will get you nowhere and i like it like

Music:

good god, there's too many to mention! but here's a few main-stays: danny elfman, violent femmes, bright eyes, modest mouse, cursive, the faint, bob dylan, randy newman, leonard cohen, janis jopelin, the doors, leadbelly, t. bone burnett, ryan adams, kurt cobain, the band, robbie robertson, eric clapton, roy orbison, neil young, neil diamond, the stones, rob stoner, warren zevon, wallflowers, joni mitchell, ronnie hawkins, ray charles, dr. john, bobby charles, paul butterfield, muddy waters, van morrison, emmylou harris, the staples, the white stripes, libertines, love and rockets, rem, stp, coldplay, bob marley, elton john, brian wilson, david bowie and tom petty

Movies:

five easy pieces, the great dictator, the last detail, last temptation of christ, naked lunch, short cuts, brazil, masked and anonymous, seven samurai, seventh sign, man who fell to earth, any john cassavettes film, edward scissorhands, the departed

Television:

curb your enthusiasm, house, real time with bill maher, aqua teen hunger force, porn, and a few others that i dare not mention to you because i don't know you like that

Books:

some say books kill the devil while others say books will change the world. i don't say either of those things.

Heroes:

chucklefucking the night away listening to william s. burroughs read his shit. my therapist friend who lets me rant and bitch because he knows more about me than my mother. warming up with a couple of lizards. sifting through the garbage with friends. that green guy i saw on the street who had no pants on. smoking a pipe and waving at passing drivers with a great big damn grin on his face. anybody with direction in their life and a sense of purpose. anybody that doesn't repeat shit he overheard somewhere else like he knows something when really he doesn't. anybody that isn't full of useless and pointless knowledge about any possible thing - that shit get's redundant and lame and fuck it.
