Gentlemen you can't fight in here, this is the war room...

About Me

I own and operate Mammoth Sound Mastering...
I like sleeping… hoodies… talking like I’m from Greenville, North Carolina... my friends... crappy horror movies… saying dude like every 5 seconds… people with something to say… reading magazines back to front… Brotha Lynch... laughing at stuff... wearing clothes that are too big for me… Twin Peaks... my hometown and the people from it… getting drunk and trying in vain to play guitar like Slash… driving too fast… Emily’s coffee… cheese… cussing… babes… partying… sarcasm… sunshine… Hollyhood... Ghostbusters (best movies ever made)… Rudimentary Peni (best band ever made)… differentiating between my thoughts with these little dots… and heavy metal…
I don’t like waking up early… Starship Troopers... non-tippers… the Beatles… people who drive slower than the posted speed limit… people with contrived personalities… waiting for people… leaving messages… poi… the sound of people brushing their teeth… people with no sense of humor… Tori Amos… the east side… and barfing…

My Interests

I got static in my head...
The reflected sound of everything...
Tried to go to where it led...
But it didn't lead to anything...
