About Me

I'm just a guy trying to make my mark in the world. There have been a number of bumps in the road, and April 2007 turned out to be real bad, with betrayals and corruption being placed upon me like something out of an Aaron Spelling series. Of course what was missing was the sexy bits; the good looking women, the trysts in out of the way places. No, I got none of that to at least look back on with humor. So I've had to take a hard look at myself and I'm working on lifting myself out of the mud, washing myself off and regaining control of my life. So far, it hasn't been easy but I keep plugging along. As down as I want to be, I have to keep moving forward. It is my drive, it is my determination.

My Interests

I like all sorts of things. I love film with a passion. I’m a comic collector, I have a passion for politics and love experimenting with new things. I’m the type of person that will try something once, mull over it for a bit, then probably try it again just for good measure. I think because of the writing experience I have tried a lot of things that I probably would not have done under other circumstances.

I'd like to meet:

I'm not sure who I'd like to meet, as far as the romantic thing goes. My luck hasn't bee the greatest. I have a lot of life long female friends, a few that are really close, but nothing that has resulting in a long term romantic relationship.As far as general meeting, I'd like to meet creative people. I want to meet people with energy, drive aqnd determination.

Music:

I like all types of music, however I’m a child of the 80’s so my heart lives there. Put on some Depeche Mode, Cure, Smiths or any of the bands from the New Romantics phase and I’m a happy camper. I do love me some funk and can get down with Parliament/ P-Funk.

Movies:

I’m a Star Wars fan. No way of denying it. I love all the movies. A short list of films I've liked in the past few years would be The Matrix Trilogy, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, V for Vendetta (recent addition), Ghost Dog, Truck Turner, Miracle Mile, Kill Bill, Billy Jack, Excalibur. I also like old 30’s and 40’s war films. I like art style films. One of the films I like that is kind of off of the radar is a film called Until the End of the World.

Television:

I’m hooked on The Shield, Alias, Battlestar Galactica and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I kind of liked Firefly, loved the Neil Gaimen BBC show Neverwhere. Actually certain Brit TV shows just automatically get on my good list. UFO, The Prisoner and Blake's 7 are just cool Brit shows. Yep, I’m all over the map to some degree.

Books:

I'm a comic collector, so I tend to lean toward graphic novels and comics. Just a few are books from the Brit invasion of the 80's, so almost anything from Alan Moore, Neil Gaimen and Grant Morrison, in that order. One guy I've rediscovered, I'm ashamed to say, is Ed Brubaker. I knew Ed when he lived in San Diego. He moved on to become a cool comic writer. I've gotten some of his new stuff and it's fantastic.

My Blog

Calling the Black Man Boy

I'm working on my http://www.chaoticfringe.com website and I got pissed over how manipulated we can be. Barack Obama makes a statement about Middle America, probably most Americans, and he's jumped on...

The way we used to see movies

I was driving to WalMart this morning to pick up a few things. It’s amazing where the mind goes at 3am. For some reason a tune started going in my head and it took a few seconds to realize it wa...

Episode 43  The Wheel of Time Turns

Hmm. A letter about the past year. Why I didn't think about sending one out I'm not sure why. Well, probably because I think of my life as being uneventful, rather slow and with all the changes last y...

Hollywood ripoff!!!!

Two years ago when I was still under the impression, like a lot of people, that The Teacher was a legitimate producer who had connections, I worked with a couple of the actors who actually had some f...

Lament for the Soul

It's been a bit of a rough morning, but I just came across something that made my heart sing. It's something cruel but frankly I don't care. I went to the website of the Teacher. Before I get much fu...
