About Me

the author looms above the page and thinks it strange that at his age he cannot find the proper words to describe his only world. one would think that in a life where no two snowflakes are alike, one would find a brilliant rhyme for each and every bit of time.

My Interests

shoegazing. get-rich-quick schemes. not talking. video games. smart humor. dumb humor. physical humor. quantum physics. cruciverbalism. anatomy. sweet leaves. myology. stories (being told, rather than telling). friendships that are weathered, tempered, and resolute. dr. pepper. boggle. boggle DELUXE.

I'd like to meet:

a black market baby; a diamond that wants to stay coal.

Music:

yeah, i like music.

Movies:

are okay with me.

Television:

i'm on strike.

Books:

"Kneller's Happy Campers"

Heroes:

with tomatoes and green peppers and that deeeelicious cucumber sauce.
