About Me

I am a young stout man living the young stout man's dream of living in the wonderful funderful pacific northwest. I am the laziest artist I have ever met. One day I hope to be hit by lightning and go on an artistic spree. Of course, living in Portland I have to be in a band! I am! I am the singer of a rock sloppera called SLAPHOG. I cant sing, I can play no instrument, and I know nothing about music theory... The music is an aquired taste. Listen to me sing TRANSHUMANIST CRY at our SLAPHOG page. I did a couple of stints in the terrific Republic of Panama and hope to return soon. When I do I will build a giant rain orchestra. I really love listening to the trains rolling by at night. In the day I like smushing pennys on the track.

My Interests

making up storys. art. music. dance. ghosts. ufos. bigfoot. people. panama. god. food. monkeys. parrots. doggies and kittys. friends....and you baby!
