About Me

MySpace Layouts MySpace LayoutsThe old headline was: "Sweet as butter, smooth as sugar.", and yeah, it's true. Also, I'm Spaztic; doing that Graphic Design thang. Mostly... and I Like Mash-ups. I'm better. And for the Art peeps I say "Repetition is best when implied". Think about it, it's deceptively deep. ;) And I my feelings on myspace are like that of a friend who's cool to hang out around mostly, but is set in their stupid ways. So no, I'm not gonna deck my page out with flash and crudz... w my OSI peeps. Yes, I call them Peeps............ I saw the Locusts in concert. Short songs, lots of noise and reverb. They really DO look like this. Bwahhh! --- and it peeves me when people mumble --- and sidestepping to the next topic... I don't have a 1-2 step. But I'z got the 3step. Itz all good, as long as you perform for an audience of one.
