I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I watch zombie movies and deconstruct corporate advertising. Sometimes (all the time) i wonder if Godzilla could really, really beat Ultraman in a loom-over-Tokyo style deathmatch. If you can't describe it without inventing new words for "cacophonous" and a few choice expletives, I don't want to listen to it.

My Interests

adventuring, b fest, bad movies, bananaphone, basement shows, comic books, counting deer, darkrooms, grindhouse cinema, iguanas, inflatable goldfish tanks, informercials, moon tanning, non fiction, not dying in abandoned buildings, the panama canal, platypi, pranks gone awry, puddle jumping, science museums, semiotic analysis, social darwinism, spring flowers, underestimating mere humans, waterfalls... media theory media theory media theory

I'd like to meet:

People that don't skeeve me out? Noise rock aficionado. Computer geeks. Science nerds. Gamers with social skills. Zombies. (Anyone who can have a fullon geekout about time travel.) for really: people who don't confuse "let's hang out" with "i want you in my pants." there's been some confusion on that front. the two statements are NOT equivalent.
