About Me


I'm a filmmaker, a musician, a father, a paramour, an actor, a writer, a poet, a Libertarian, a fan, a collector, a connosieur, and many others besides.
I enjoy substance and meaning. I love words like "convivial" and "intransigence."
Animals and angels are my friends. My lover is a poetess of extreme profundity and erudition.
Wisdom is an errant aspiration.
If I don't know behold IT...then IT fades from my view.
And most importantly: SUFFER NO GUILT, YE WHO WIELD THIS IN THE NAME OF CROM!
Take the quiz:
What 80's Metal Band are you? (with pics)

King Diamond
You are King Diamond, a band that actually is Satanic and not doing it for the show. Your lyrics tell stories of posession and demon babies. You may not be well known, but that doesn't stop you from being one of the greatest metal bands of all time.
