My Interests

I've used this before, but Diane Arbus really sums up what I love- "I always thought of photography as a naughty thing to do - that was one of my favorite things about it, and when I first did it, I felt very perverse. "

I'd like to meet:

people that can really lite a smoke.

Television:

Books:

the tin drum, crime and punishment, anything by raymond carver and vonnegut, 1984, the girl in the flammable skirt, bukowski (except "women")....I read to much. just finished John Updykes "licks of Love"-amazing. oh yeah the late great Morton Juster (stop laughing)
