Great Deeds Die When Told

My Interests

I Like Watching Strangers Choke In Restaurants And Refuse To Go Near Ouija Boards. Illiterates Amuse Me As Much As Morning People Confuse Me. My Parents Are Very Good People. I'd Like To Have Myself Stuffed When I Die, Posing With A Beer And A Cigarette, And Placed In A Lighted Corner Of The Vatican. (Does Anyone Know How To Have This Arranged?) Writing And Traveling Are Now My Only Addictions, So I'm Hoping To Live Until Ninety. Go Yankees..... ..

.. ..

I'd like to meet:

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.."Jack Kerouac (On The Road)If You Hold Little Or No Interest In Items Such As Philosophy, Books, Traveling, Or General Politics, We Will Probably Not Get Along. If You Are Missing Teeth And Hold Up Pretend Gang Signs In Photographs, Or Pose Like A Skank, We Definately Won't. This Should Filter Out Most Of You...From The Historic Angle, I'd Would Like To Have A Beer With Einstein, Dinner With My Grandpa, Or Perhaps Take An Autumn Stroll With Mother Teresa. Other Interesting Meets Would Be Edgar Cayce, Martin Luther King Jr., Henry Houdini, Julius Caesar, Jack Kerouac, Bob Marley, Aleister Crowley, Or Any Honest Witness From Area 51. But If I Were A Trained, Bad-Ass Cage-Fighter, I'd Try To Cross Paths With Hitler, Pol Pot, Or Someone Of That Ilk, So I Could Beat Them Into Bloody Hamburger. Or That Goddamn Rally Monkey!
