" The courage of the poet is to keep ajar the door that leads into madness. " -- Christopher Morley
Man for all seasons, jack of all trades, poet, jester, philosopher, geek, hedonist.
Silly, sultry, sappy, sensual.
Wondrous, wild, wise, whimsical.
Intensity is my byword, passion my philosophy. I quote Shakespeare, KMFDM, Emily Dickinson, Einstein, and Dave Mustaine. I like to compose music, which I do so using a workstation consisting of furniture I customized, a computer for which I handpicked the components, various and sundry bits of outboard equipment, and a multitude of cables.
I sing like a bird. Out for karaoke, my leg twitches involuntarily during an Elvis or Stray Cats number. I'm not so full of myself that I won't do a Fiona Apple or Carly Simon tune. Sometimes I overload the house sound system on "Start Again"during White Wedding.
My hairstyle changes like the wind. I read, write, rinse, repeat. I often have trouble maintaining proper decorum. I own a nice black suit and Italian silk suspenders as well as a spiked collar and latex pants. I 'm into home decorating. I'd like to travel the world with good friends, a camera, and not much else.
Technology excites me. I can take apart a computer (and put it back together again), wire a home theatre, and install a home network. I understand color wheels. I know that black, grey, and white aren't colors. I've done independent studies in relativistic physics involving nasty equations. I laugh so hard at live standup that I wonder if I'm going to hurt myself.
I like films with subtitles. Sometimes I tear up at the sad parts. I have a virtual library of fantasy and sci-fi novels, and a number of other books besides.
I talk about my feelings. I think sex is an art. Love is my default emotion.

Auditory assault upon entrance to a MySpace.
Lack of aesthetic sense and style approaching critical mass in a MySpace. ( id est I can't read your freakin' page.)
more to come...
