About Me


"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-

DEVILLE WILLY lyrics

I'd like to meet:


Individuals who want to live their life to the fullest. Artists of life. Rebels with a cause. Real people. And so many friends from the past, especially from my New York years...

...or in other words: "The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars." - Jack Kerouac
