About Me

If you click play here, some music picked by me happens. Please click play, or you will never know the actual extent of my awesomeness. You will know it only through whispers and legend.

My Interests

Human beings and the things they make and do.

I'd like to meet:

Barack Obama and give him a big, platonic hug. Shake his hand and buy him a beer. Pick his brain for a good twenty minutes and thank him for renewing my faith in the American system. Hopefully I will not have to change this in the next six months.

Music:

Yes. Rest assured that I like music.

Movies:

I am not going to put a list of movies I like. If you want to know, we can have a conversation and I will give you a list. Ranked and cross-referenced with footnotes.

Television:

The Office, Buffy, House M.D., Veronica Mars, The West Wing, The first 1 and 1/2 seasons of ALIAS...look, this is why these lists are ridiculous. You can't figure out what kind of person I am from list of stuff I like. You can, I guess, figure that out from the terse and impatient answers I give instead.

Books:

*sigh* I like books.

Heroes:

Batman, Roland of Gilead. Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Abraham Lincoln. The X-men. Jack motherfucking Bauer.

Winter whispers cold in my ear, like the ghost of a dead lover

The change of the season brings a change of temperment in me every year.  Time has ceased moving quickly.  The cool of an autumn night promises a coming fatal cold that a cool summer night n...
