A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... And how many want out.

About Me

Clean Living Under Difficult Circumstances

My Interests

Going to JC's house & learn'n stuff, spending time with my sweet little family, trying to stay in touch with my greater extended family, doing good deeds, keeping up with my mates in my scooter club (Secret Society San Diego), huffing two stroke smoke, judging tortillas for quality and texture, kicking tires, making electronic music, whistling thru the gap in my teeth, searching for new music, watching a good skinhead ruckus, researching obscure synthesizers, sucking on skittles, dreaming of a barn find GP/DL 200, getting a smart haircut, over-clocking CPUs, making stacks of $ for goods & services, figuring out that choi le fut kung fu is WAY harder to do than it looks in the movies, helping those who cannot help themselves, Pad Thai, photos of car accidents and other sad scenes, mocking the unjust and selfish, making / printing subversive art, reading disinformation .., confusing self-righteous Mormons, beautiful Italian motorcycles, trying to fathom Steve Jobs, finding top dead center, being grateful for being so blessed, destroying sushi boats with my mighty mandibles, enjoying my many t-shirts, smelling hair bleach, collecting big black boots, gently washing my Ben and Freds, shopping for the blackest shirt, doing the monkey ska, fast Lambrettas, plotting to take over Scotland, catching snowflakes in my mouth, calculating the perfect ratio of rice & beans, and letting the cat in & out of the house at 3 am.

I'd like to meet:

All you Punx and all you Teds, National Front and Natty Dreads, Mods, Rockers, Hippies and Skinheads, Keep on fighting 'til you're dead.............. I might add you.I SAID MIGHT!!!!

Music:

Movies:

Television:

Books:

A Perfect Summer Holiday & Family Reunion

The Beat at the B.U.T.

Well...................The audience ruined the show for me. It was full of middle aged burnout beach dudes and old party hags spilling drinks on each other. WAY too many flip flops and corona shirts. ...

Wonderfully awful music.
