"Yeah Rowdy"

We are what we only pretend to be. So we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

About Me

I'm that sad sorry little fucker that rains shit on your Sunday picnic.

My Interests

The intrinsic beauty of what the world has to offer. Sitting on my ass and enjoying the finer things in life such as a good movie, comic books, a well written book, or a big ol' slab of pie. Painting, drawing, sculpting, fuck even coloring. Cooking a decent meal. So on and so forth.

My Blog

Rereading history.

Out of pure boredom I just reread every email I had saved in my inbox over the past six or so years.  It's put me in a wierd flashback state of mind, kind of like how I felt after going through m...

Farewell Mr. Trout.

How can you explain how a good book affects you? I find it nearly impossible. A good book, a good story, a good film, a good piece of artwork can have an impact upon an individual as powerful as any...

I drink a lot.

Nothing quite like a St. Patricks day where you're passed out cold by ten o' clock at night.

Old Age and Sick Humor.

So Tuesday was my 24th birthday. I got drunk. Very very drunk. But I don't really like to celebrate it as the anniversary of my birth. I like to celebrate it as the anniversary of these wonderful ...
