About Me

Pixilated. Long time lover of trashy 3 chord rock n roll. Disneylander. Unapologetic-scum-record-collector-dork (movie soundtracks, punk rock and Hayley Mills mostly... but, believe me, all genres are represented). I absolutely love macaroni and cheese. Salt eater (the good stuff). I carry a small fresh peppermill and sea-salt grinder with me at work. Sucker for amusement parks and roadside attractions (think Hobbitown, Enchanted Forest, Trees of Mystery). Believer in ghosts. My taste in cinema is pretty screwed up. Sure, I love Sam Fuller, Kurosawa, Ford, early Waters, Meyers and the old classics, but if you come to my house I'm just as likely to be watching "Bye Bye Birdie" for the 56th time. My friend Bob said I would like "High School Musical". He was right. I'm cursed.

Long walks on the foggy NW beaches, Peppers/Spicy Food, Hamburgers (good hamburgers), Disneyland, Butter, Cheese (all kinds), Casement Windows, Home Movies, Tiki Artifacts, Mary Blair Illustrations, Hayley Mills, taking stuff apart, records, traveling by station wagon, Time Off...

Recent Reads: Anthony Bourdain's "Kitchen Confidential", Katherine Dunn's "Geek Love", George Hurchalla's "Going Undergroud, American Punk 1979-1992", Matt Maranian's, "Pad", Roald Dahl, "The Twits". I start way more books than I finish. I should probably stick to children's short stories...
