About Me

I keep a running list in my head of ways to get arrested. I mean, if I wanted to be arrested for some reason, what would be the most entertaining way to accomplish it? See headline for one of my ideas...
I REALLY REALLY want to go to the olympics diving event, jump out of the bleachers, and do a cannon ball. That would make my day. Also on the list of ways to get arrested.
I have an interesting sense of humor, or so I'm told, and would like to make movies at some point. Gotta redeem my name in the directing business, you know?
If you have no sense of humor, you probably won't like me, and I won't like you, but most likely I'll be too polite to say it. I'm sick of people getting offended at jokes--- most especially when they have no reason to do so.
Biggest issue with TV- the Puerto Rican day parade episode of Seinfeld is banned form network TV, and as far as I know the restriction has not been lifted. This happened because Kramer set the Puerto Rican flag on fire by accident, and some bitch lawyer lady make a huge stink. I'm really sick of seeing American flags burned left and right on TV but not being able to see one of the greatest episodes of Seinfeld because another country's flag gets set on fire. A side note- I donâ€™t have (and never have had) cable. This probably contributes to my current bitterness and anger.
Also, I hate abbreviations like "u"and "ur". If you use them in a conversation/message to me, I will make the keybaord shock your fingers.

My Interests

Music, movies, books, comedy- used to do stand up a lot, hopefully getting back into it soon.

I'd like to meet:

Dave Grohl, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Tom Brady, Johnny Damon (even though he sold his soul to the devil), Jesus (I have strong suspicions that he smoked a lot of weed) and Hitler (so I can kick him in the nuts).

Music:

A bit of everything, except country *puke*, picky about rap. Play guitar & bass, pretend that I can play the piano, love playing drums but have little training. Nirvana was one of the first bands I ever got into, so there's a special place in my heart for Kurt. I'm not a fan of most new [corporate] music, I feel like we've hit a dry patch. There are some pretty cool smaller bands out there, for example, The Higway, that are paving the way for a rich musical future. Listen to them. Love them. The new Nine Inch Nails album is pretty good though.

Movies:

Love comedy, and also Arnold movies. They could arguably be considered comedies anyway. On the serious side, Leon the Professional. Jean Reno is amazing, and, coincidentally, so is Natalie Portman (her first full length film). Rushmore, Monty Python, Big Lebowski, Charlie Chaplin, Dracula Dead and Loving It (so underrated it's not even funny), the original Pink Panther series (Peter Sellers), Hamburger Hill, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Rebel Without a Cause....to name a few.

Television:

I don't watch much, just Seinfeld, the Office and South Park. I usually get busy doing other things. And the news pisses me off to no end. Stop scaring old women and soccer moms, and stop making money off other people's misfortunes.

Books:

Ishamael- read it. Anything by Vonnegut, Confederacy of Dunces, Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit, Catcher in the Rye. Tim O'Brien is pretty interesting, he writes about his experiences in Vietnam.

Heroes:

That gorilla that escaped the zoo in Boston last year.
