Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger... Smellier?

About Me

I am a misfit. I am a recovering artist, a reformed cynic, a former poet, a retired philosopher.
I'm on a spiritual quest whose dimensions, purpose and destination are unknowable to me. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up, but that doesn't bother me at all. I am an optomist about the right things (I think). I believe that people are basically good, but that we've all started out with bad directions. In my pockets you will find: keys, a ball-point pen, change, a zippo, a pack of cigarettes, a small spiral notepad, a swiss army knife, a micro-leatherman, two equal halves of a broken hematite ring, a magic wishing rock, a letter from a bank and a pocket edition of the Tao Teh Ching. I've owned my own business since 1994, been married for about the same and I have a daughter who is cooler than you. Really.

My Interests

Inhuman mental stimulation!
Zombies! Kung fu! Dangerous yo-yo tricks!
Music that carries the strength of character with it.
Drinking coffee until dawn with strange people.
Writing whenever I can.
Coming to grips with the complexity of the "human condition", humanity's place in the universe and fundamental issues of existence itself. And boobs. I've always been interested in those, for some reason.

I read about everything I can get my hands on; novels, nonfiction, magazines, comic books, graphic novels, newspapers, blogs - you name it. I'm interested in people. In stories. In art. In justice.

I'd like to meet:

You. Maybe.
Anyone who isn't a mouth-breathing parasite on the world, filled with a self-important bullshit sense of personal entitlement and vanity.
Well, maybe a little vanity is all right.
Oh, and groupies. OR Minions, I guess...
My Friends Space I have no friends! ... maybe they're INVISIBLE...
