I SELL JUNK

CONSTANTLY, OBSESSIVELY BEING EXCITED BY THE IDEA OF
1) Music — the various connections, intellectual content, and amazing unity of elements
2) People — their minds, their ability to be sweet, and diverse abilities to express their indentity
Music and people that don't fall into one of these categories just bore and depress me, which is why I'm subject to frequent bouts of boredom and sadness.
I think this is the hottest pic of Angelina Jolie by far... The new indie queen, following in Christina Ricci and Parker Posey's footsteps... Note: You can't go wrong with garter belts...just ask Frank. (cute pic of her looking like Patti Smith, courtesy of Ellen-Page.net)

My Interests

Getting English tea for lunch on Saturdays.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who's obsessed with any of the following specifics or generalities:
1. MOVIES: Classics, Cult, Silent, Foreign, Indie, or Comedy.
2. MUSIC: 80s, Classic Rock, Indie, Emo, Folk, Gothic, Industrial, Punk, or Pioneer Techno.
3. RESTAURANTS: Southern Barbacue, Thai, Korean Barbacue, Vietnamese, Japanese, Italian, or anything adventurous.
