Absence of Proof does not mean Proof of Absence

About Me


My top result for the SelectSmart.com selector,
Which Berserk character are you? ,
is *Griffith- Charismatic, skillful. A natural born leader with a greater dream to fulfill. Most likely to cause others suffering for your own aspirations...
How You Live Your Life
You are honest and direct. You tell it like it is.You are always tactful and diplomatic. You let people down gently.You're open to new people and friends, which makes you a pretty popular person.You have one big dream in your life, and you never lose sight of it. How Do You Live Your Life?Perhaps I'm a little odd in my natural nature; which is me saying that I'm usually unnatural around people? Well, mayhap that I came across the meaning of life. Probably not...Anyways, I play guitar..."What do you play?""Guitar.""You jest!""No...""Look more like a bass player..."I'm a guitar player( not quite a musician yet), and I play a beat up, black Ibenez Gio (model 3?). For all I care, it's the best model- double humbucker pick-ups, half suspended bridge(lets me whammy without a whammy), and an intonation that would make a guitarist bleed through his pores...What I mean is that that it is horrible beyond words; I'm constantly bending strings while playing to sound in tune. But the machine plays damn good, rivals a Fender, and it is a piece of my soul.On another note, I use to work at a restuarant called Gypsy Cab Company where I washed dishes with the most speed I can muster while also giving the dishes the tender, love, and care they deserve- No one wants to eat off a dirty plate. I find it ironic that before I had a job I put my occupation as "Gypsy", which was supose to be a representation of the living situation I'm in...I live on a boat now and work at the nearest Dunkin' Donuts(which they complain that I take too long to close...I'm only cleaning the shop the right way...) I'm quite sure the place is a hell domain of pastries and ice cream and is trying to condemn my soul in a congregation of fat...Alright, back to "who I am".... I like whales and flying bison...but I like whales more. I also love giant bubbles that show a jovial attitude. And I love life. I use to show a great affection towards clouds, but lately they all seem fake; actually the whole sky now seems to be a backdrop of sorts...like a screen saver or wallpaper. I find the world a distant grey, except on occasion I see the world very brightly. I'm guessing it's a side affect of "Traveler's itch". Speaking of which, I like to think myself as a traveler, crossing plains of existence and overlapping realities on my bike.I like using phrases such as, "Life, the universe, and everything," which , by the way, is the name of a book in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe series. I've also picked up a few phrases from Stephen King's opus magnum, The Dark Tower; which I find is written very well, and the ending was everything I hoped for. Ah! I play for a band named the Instrumentality Project, which is a fusion between a dream of mine and a certain lad named Jason Blankenship. The odd coupling proved to be true love and it spawned children of the names Mike Oullette and Destiny Burch. The band is doing semi-well. We are on the way of making a demo and putting music on the myspace and web site. I would like to dwell more on this subject, but all I can say about right now is - "A good anal probing! Not the one up the ass .. More like the mind fucked kind! Let it seep into your soul like a good Phish concert! Dancing is welcomed and highly appreciated! Jam songs on the way! We are not a hippy band...our appearance is trickery-We are actually supernatural beings with a tendency to express our language with vivid sounds that depict great battles, UFO's (we play in truths), whales, towns draped in eternal rain (book coming soon!), and a constant rivalry between surf rock connections and the more experimental influences of Radiohead and Jason's beloved Pink Floyd (I prefer Syd Barrett's influences on the band). SO COME SEE US NOW!! Greatly appreciated and we say, "Thankee Sai!"
