About Me

I'm the owner and founder of TICK TICK BANG PRODUCTIONS (previously Vagabondage Productions and/or Dizzy Stick Films), currently shooting our third indie film, THE EYES HAVE IT an in pre-pro for our 4th, THE CUTTING ROOM. Also in pre-production for our 5th film (notice the gap?) THE CHOSEN ONE. I'm also the lead singer of WELCOME TO NEVER (www.myspace.com/WelcomeToNever) What else, what else? I do improv comedy, I act (in indie films mostly -- some stage, too). I am a published poet and playwright (several of my stageplays have been mounted in Houston). Hit me up if you'd like to see or hear some of my work/music/films/poetry readings/whateverfilm & poetry is a main focus as of late, but the latter doesnt produce any moolah, so I dont hype on it as much...but i'm putting out my fourth collection of poems, THE GOLDEN GOOSE GOT A HYSTERECTOMY pretty soon, so email me if you'd like to be on the list for the first batch of copies. it contains six dozen poems.

Your Hidden Talent
You have the natural talent of rocking the boat, thwarting the system. And while this may not seem big, it can be. It's people like you who serve as the catalysts to major cultural changes. You're just a bit behind the scenes, so no one really notices. What's Your Hidden Talent?.. .. .. other heroes: saul williams .. gabe kaplan .. prince .. charles bukowski .. e e cummings .. ani difranco .. frank zappa You Are Ed Wood From "Ed Wood."
You definitely have your name in history, although probably not for the reason you believe. Yet you are very accepting, non-judgemental, and optimistic almost to a fault. You also have a thing for angora sweaters. How could anyone not like you?
