About Me

I live in an apartment that is shaped like a bottle cap, a crown, a rough ridged circle. My wallet is the size of a purse and weighs the weight of a purse filled with apples. Thee are no slices of money or apples in the wallet. Only stained records of money poorly spent, poorly taken pictures, poorly posed pictures and more pictures of me posing, looking pale and poor.

My Interests

Fruit, Sand, Trains, Plays, Robert F. Kennedy, Phil Ochs, detectivecum.com, cumcoveredfedoras.com

I'd like to meet:

John Waters in a dark tunnel carrying a very fancy lamp. Woody Allen hiding behind a waterfall, wiping water out of his eyes. David Lynch riding a giant tabby cat reading a Cutlery magazine called, Forks Etc....David Mamet after serious dental surgery trying to eat himself out of a potato sack.

Music:

the clash, the pixies, tom waits, the kinks, elo, badly drawn boy, big black, jesus lizard, thinking fellars union local 282, handsome family, palace, goran bregovic, david bowie, the handsome family, the clash, the kinks, elo, goran bregovic and I...i'm bored

Movies:

O.C. and Stiggs, Aurens of Arabia

Television:

That time O.C. and Stiggs came on TV and I almost had a heart attack.

Books:

I Hate Chicago by Studs Terkel Am I Okay? by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe My Name is Irrelevant by Giggles McGraw

Heroes:

OC, Stiggs, Studs Terkel, Giggles McGraw

Chicago Sports Blog Special Spelling Edition

The Cubs came back and won today. I am a Chicago Sports blogger and even I was unexpectedly interested in the outcome. I said it that way because I don't know how to spell the word suprise.
