About Me

I build apartments to pay the bills, build computers for fun, build music for my soul, and I build video games for the future. Lots of building. I seem to be building an entrepreneurial spirit lately, too. What's up with that?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who kick ass, are down for a good time, and enjoy this thing we call "laughter"

Music:

Okay - here goes the beginning of a long ass list. I'll prolly keep adding things, unless I get lazy. which is quite litely. Mars Volta, Moon Maan, Afghan Whigs, Twilight Singers, Mono, Hooverphonic, Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, Tomahawk, Lovage, Mike Patton, Sergei Rachmaninov, Piotyr Illyich Tchaikovsky, Garbage, Front 242, Dillinger Escape Plan, Stars, John Williams, Bullmark, Earth Wind and Fire, Melt Banana, Deerhoof, Radiohead, Nobuo Uematsu, Ayumi Hamasaki, NIN, Blonde Redhead, Yoko Kanno, Toshihiko Sahashi, Tool, Thursday, Minibosses, Mich Gerber, Cibo Matto, Clint Massell, Celldweller... yeah, that's the short list ;p

Movies:

Fight Club has always been the fave, probably will always be. But Zardoz is pretty badass, as is crazy-ass kung-fu movies and really poorly made movies where you can see the boom mic in several shots and they paid one of the actors with crack. (Dolemite's my name, and fuckin' up muthafuckas is my game) That's the good stuff.

Television:

OK, I'll admit it. Comedy Central is good when you're sick and you got nothing you can do but turn into a vegetable on the couch. not even enough energy to move the mouse, you know? that's what Comedy Central is good at. Laughter = best medicine. w0rd.

Books:

Anything by Chuck Palahniuk is high quality. Choke was my fave, but Lullaby comes close behind. Still trying to get ahold of Invisible Monsters.

Heroes:

are tasty. especially with some horseradish mustard, mmm. oh, people? Mike Patton, then.

ghosts & goblins, Oh My!

*whew*I'm awake. So rarely is that a relief, but I'm definately relieved. And kinda spooked. I just had this bizarre dream where I was in the family room (a 3-season porch) in my parents house, and th...

WE ARE AMERICA.

Amongst the plethora of reasons that I really REALLY like Obama's pitch for the presidency in 2008 is his uncomprimising hope. His hope for humanity, and our ability to do good. Obama to me represents...

Puzzles can be scary

OK. So there is, right now, (for me anyway) a big puzzle, and I'm trying to fit all of the pieces together. But the thing is, I'm pretty sure that there are a whole bunch of pieces missing from the bo...

Browsing the "Opinion" section

I don't know about the rest of you, but lately, there has been one section that I've read in every single paper I've picked up in the past couple of years. No, it's not the funnies. It's the Opinion s...

Unfortunate Enlightenment

Yes, I know. How can any kind of enlightenment be unfortunate? I'd like to relate back to "V for Vendetta," a pseudotopian movie recently made (although written in the mid-90s) that seems a little too...

If I were gay, I'd want to have Jon Stewart's babies.

Came across this today, while just poking around. He's dead on, I think. Sad that media promotes dishonest arguments and the spinning of politicians.Regardless, enjoy.Jon in the CrossfireAdd to My Pro...
