About Me

About me…well I was brought in to this world on the heels of an anti-climatic decade, the year Elvis mooned himself, Lucas introduced the force, and punk rock was born (so say the critics). I was raised in the tarnished section of the Bible belt by a generation that is still astounded by mine’s cynicism. I would describe myself as a wannabe Ronin-Jedi whom bounced out of the academy in search of love…well, at least the unwashed kind. I learned hyper-masculinity from G.I. Joe, Red Dawn, and Batman, and then tore that personification down after watching scenes of the Berlin wall and the little curtain called the Soviet Union (aka the Cold War) fall. Now I make jokes and revel in imperialism, resurrect epic eras such as Pox Romano and listen to music like Leonard Cohen’s “The Future”…all while buying “fair” trade coffee. As a side note, at least we don’t have to import Kentucky’s most inspiring commodities. Some of this may sound depressing, but through it all I wallow in luxuries that may disappear this century and try to soak up as much “knowledge” as my post-modern processing unit will allow. While earlier generations may be shaking their heads at the fact that we see porn as entertainment, I postulate that they’re equally intrigued. I’m a person that sees the middle east as a “crisis”, which don’t all Americans look at anything that our government fails at as a “crisis”? I mean let’s consider the proverbial wars here, the war on crime, poverty, drugs, immigration (not that any of them are anything but political opiates anyway)…hell, let’s not consider any of it. I know—let’s stand mesmerized by the over-done good cop/bad cop relationship of Paula Abdul and Simon Cowl and vote for something that really generates pop-crap that no one will be playing in ten years time…or even until the next similar poll is taken, which more people are interested in than political elections, much less climate change. O.k. Enough already…I cry “uncle”, only for your sake. Just check out the new project as well as the others, the new “Soapbox” (aptly named?), The Betweeners, and The Boxwine Prophets. Oh, don’t forget to consider being cool and build you and your loved one(s) some bicycles. MySpace Profile Photo Editor
