Shimmering Sophistication

About Me

Baby was a black sheep. Baby was a whore.
Baby got big, and baby get bigger.

You need to know my last name/e-mail addy to send me a friend request. But I'm always open to messages, folks!

My Interests

Peace.

Love.

Ecstacy.

Unity.

Respect.

I'd like to meet:

- People who are into innovative and forward thinking music...

- People who like traveling to various places and shows across the country, film festivals, music festivals (SXSW, Coachella, anyone?)...I've got frequent flyer miles, WHATS GOOD???

- Functionally fucked up people. (aka - my fellow New Yorkers!)

- A guy who's self conscious enough to know he's attractive and not pretentious enough to want to remind everyone.

- People into independent films, foreign flicks, and Asian horror flicks (LOVED Three Extremes, Pulse, *the Japanese* Dark Water)

- People who understand that the political IS personal and vice versa, and have a right mind to act on it.

- Vincent Gallo.

- Anyone who's read this much.

Usual Suspects

Waters

Solondz

Lynch

Television:

What I'm Watching:

I've been watching a lot of the Food Network (Giada, Paula Deen, Diners, Drive-In's, and Dives is pretty good too, but the host is kind of annoying.)

MOST of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim

Charm School/Flavor of Love (Isn't it the BEST!)

Books:

What I've Been Reading:
"My Life and the Paradise Garage: Keep On Dancing" by *THE* Mel Cheren

"Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" by Bill Brewster

"Love Saves the Day: A History of American Dance Culture" by Tim Lawrence

"The Book of Five Rings" by Miyamoto Musashi (I should've read this book years ago.)

"A Thousand Beautiful Suns" by Khaled Husseini

"Beautiful People With Beautiful Feelings", by Donny Miller. (not really a "book", but definitely one of my favorite things to flip through. More like a collection of art.)

"Blue Days, Black Nights" by Roy Nyswaner

Oh, and I'm a huge fan of just about anything Edith Wharton
