About Me

Well, to begin with. I am very smart. I dont say that to sound like a douchbag. I just am. I have an IQ of 136. Apparently this makes me smarter than about 95 percent of you. I didnt choose this. And I will never hold it over your head. I am just a regular guy who just happens to be able to recall just about everything he sees, hears, feels, reads, and watches. It also means that I am really, really bored most of the time. It takes a lot to hold my interest for more than five minutes. You would also figure that because I am so smart I totally have all my shit together. But the fact is I still hate waking up while the sun is still out. I like to drink, gamble, and smoke. I tend to be a bit of a womanizer and I cant really keep a job for more than a year. If this sort of brutal honesty makes you uncomfortable in text form. You probably will not like being around me. I have a reputation for saying what I think and pissing a lot of people off (Andy, you can attest to this, and thats why I still repsect you, brother) I just hate pretention and wasting time on things which have no meaning. I also have no patience for ignorance. I am always happy to educate, but people who grapple onto baseless theories and ignore the truth in the face of a mountain of contrary evidence soon find out how visceral I can be. I am now going to quote a horrible movie starring Robert DeNiro and Bill Murray: "Don't ever fuck with me. Don't ever lie to me, disrespect me, underestimate me. If you do, your life becomes a raging sea. But come to me like a man - with your eyes open, head up, hand out, then I become more than a friend, more than a shoulder. I become the expediter of your dreams".

My Interests

Art, ancient literature, punk rock, philosophy, maroon clothing, film, chess, eating tortilla chips with salsa, motorcycles, WWI, Belgian Wheat beers, bicycling, molten hot metal, poker, cats, dive bars, things that are heavier than I am, free pool, women, WWII, wing tipped shoes, other things involving fire and brimstone, fine carpentry, Bourbon, a well crafted hamburger with fries, and being gregarious at all times.

I'd like to meet:

Aristotle, Plato, Jesus, Muhommed, Buddha, Pythagorus, Nietsche, Sartre, Clarke Gable, Marilyn Monroe, Chuck Jones, Salvador Dali, Max Ernst, Leonardo Da vinci, Michaelangelo Buoneratti, The weird old guy from original Kung Fu, Alberto Giacometti, Constantin Brancusi, Robert Rodriguez, Keith Moon, Les Claypool, Ashley Olsen (whatever you have to say about this one, fuck off, ok?), Georges Braque, David Bowie, Roger Waters, Marlena Dietrich, Greta Garbo, the Marx Brothers, John Rotton, and maybe, just maybe..........you.

Music:

I am an appreciator of many genres. I really enjoy old school jazz and blues, big band standards and the like. I love original rock like Hendrix and Clapton. British Invasion, the folk rock movement (CSNY, Dylan, etc). And I dig all the garage band stuff from the 90's and even some of the crap you hipster's listen to like modest mouse and pavement is stomachable, But if you want to rock my socks off its got to be Punk Rock and New Wave. Wha can I say? The 80's were it for music. It will never be the same.

Movies:

Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarentino, David Lynch, Billy Wilder, Tim Burton, Walt Disney (when he was actually alive), Ridley Scott, James Cameron (before that movie about the ship), John Waters, the Coen Brothers, M. Night Shamaylan, Speilberg (except for AI) Lucasarts (not Lucas, just his production company, Lucas is the worlds worst director), Jim Henson, Terry Gilliam, Ed wood, many more but the more of these damn things I fill out the lazier I get

Television:

Don't own one. Don't want one. Don't need one. There is a reason they call it the idiot box.... Idiot.Once upon there was a place called a Library. It was the repository of all man's history, knowledge, greatness, weakness, and success, failure, granduer and horror. Then someone invented something called reality television, and the Library went ignored and unused until it was forgotton completely. Man lost his way, became docile, ignorant, fat and helpless. He had forgotten what joys awaited him outside his front door, beyond the next hill, accross the oceans and in the skies. He sought only material joys and base physical pleasures. He knew not that he could die at any moment, and that people were constantly working to take away his basic freedom to eat cheetos and watch reruns of Ren and Stimpy. By the time man realized his folly he was too late. The Library had crumbled and fallen to dust, and mankind lay at the foot of its conquerors without any means to defend itself. It was eradicated by its own sloth

It strikes me that I have very few pictures of myself. A lot of you are shutterbugs and take pictures at the parties I frequent. Give me my soul back!
