Just Chris until I come up with something clever.

Whoever started the rumor that I'm a cannibal is a big, fat, succulent liar!

Joshua Tree); bright colors; sixties fashion and design; laughter; word origins and slang; and (of course) my lovely lady Mix...plus more, more, more.TURN OFFS: Cell phone abuse, testosterone-fueled fuckheads, our dear President and all his cronies, the Midwest, sports, conspicuous consumption, useless "celebrities," freezing cold and scorching hot weather, animal abuse, most religious people, and plenty of other stuff...just ask and I'll pontificate wildly.
