About Me

My name is Beard Bates....yes, that is my real name....beard was my grandmother's maiden name...I was told that in a past life I was: A Brave Viking
That I lived in: Alaska And that I died of: Suicide
I'm too sick of myself to talk about myself; thus, I will tell the story of myself, for......."Once In a land where time rolled over and molded into the face of the sea, and where the sea rolled over and molded into the face of light, and where light rolled over and tickled the bottom of God's two very large feet, it was here on the beach of non-existence that Beard first fell into being. And with his gaze cast above the arbor of twinkling souls, that which spanned the void under which God lanquished and lounged with all his Ho's, it was there in that nether region, the point upon which he focused, that Beard saw a floating sprite. And this sprite was more beautiful than anything he had ever seen; and of course it had to be, for this sprite was essentially the first thing Beard had ever seen, be it that his eyes had so recently been opened. Beard said to the Sprite, "Hello there Sprite what is your name?" But the twinkling little sprite just giggled and continued fluttering mid-air all before beginning to sing, not a song but rain. Now you may ask "How can one sing rain?," but you should also ask "How is time able to be rolled over and molded into the face of the sea?" and if you realize that both of these peculiar events are equally unreasonable and impossible, you will conversely realize the innate "possibility" and veracity of such an act in the world in which Beard first appeared. Now the sprite came closer, and batted her eyelashes before Beard's very eyes, whispered a tune unlike any ever created on Earth, and drew with her pink tears upon Beard's soft baby face. The outline of the shape the Sprite drew, well, it began to glow, and from the light that the shape emitted, well, God was unable to see his TV and thus commented, "Turn that light off!" But Beard could not turn it off, and the Sprite quickly disappeared. Then God stood up, pushed his Ho's aside and into this very universe, that in which we all now exist, threw baby Beard.....and with such vigor that into a lady's stomach did he slip.....and from there everything just becomes boring and run of the mill. ================================================= ========================================= =================================== * * * ============================== * * * ======================== * * * * =================== * * * * =============== * * * * * ======== * * * * * ===== * * * * * * ==== * * * * * * REALLY OLD NEWS:I'm a music-producer, musician, writer, painter, and anti-philospher............................................. .............................. ======================== * * * * ================= * * * * ============ * * * * * ======== * * * * * ======= * * * * * * NEWS FROM 'BEYOND': **** Check out my music if you like: on ITUNES look for "Beard Bates" and "JilFlirter"....also check out my newest Cosmic-Funk Project "J.J.

My Interests

Throwing Snakes, Music, Writing, Painting, Record-engineering, Auto-fabrication, Motocross, Surfing, Sleeping....

I'd like to meet:

"FineNess" in all its froms: e.g. Princesses who clean ovens.....People with firm handshakes.....People who recognize worth and foster that....

Music:

Van Morrison's Astral Weeks is imo the best album ever: its sublime and of almost supernatural inspiration: Van's soul is deeper than most, far deeper (but he doesn't really push it there anylonger)......I like most genres...but particularly: Prince, James Brown, Bob Marley, Sly Stone, Waylon Jennings, Howlin Wolf, Peter Tosh, John Lee Hooker, Teddy Riley, Dr Dre, Gap Band, Earth Wind and Fire, Soundgarden, Ying Yang Twins, The Germs, Led Zeppelin, Lake Trout, Herbie Hancock, The Meters, Weather Report, Nirvana, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Scott Walker, Leonard Cohen, Hank III, Hank Jr, Willie Nelson, Israel Vibration, Twin Sticks, Victor Wootin.....I'm a sucker for good songs; whether they be of metaphysical spirit channelling or of quality construction and performance....I just like sound....as long as its not a bomb going off next to my head....for I'd never have a chance to hear the echo....

Movies:

I don't watch many movies, and I kinda forget the ones I've seen, but here are some that left a lasting impact on me: Solaris, A Fist Full of Dollars, Apocalypse Now, Donnie Darko, The Unforgiven, Natural Born Killers, Mulholland Drive.

Television:

The Weather Channel.

Books:

A Mirror He Built, Exceptional the Exceptional, Tristram Shandy, Don Quixote, Heart of Darkness, Beyond Good and Evil, Phenomenology of Spirit, The Genealogy of Morals, 100 Years of Solitude.....

Heroes:

Nietzsche, Clint Eastwood (as fictional bad-ass), God (as a ball of energy or old man with long beard), Ganghis Khan (the first leader to enable religious freedom and classless rule; yet a true example of Will To Power in action), J.J. DeVille, Jim Jones, Ghandi, Daniel, William Blake, The Cyclops, Geronimo, Robert E. Lee, Kool Keith, Montezuma, Cortez....I like people that are both blackholes and yet whiteholes (the inverse of a blackhole: i.e. that which creates and emits particles rather than devouring them)....people that are dynamic, in-control, yet troubled and somehow angry at the world.
