About Me

Transforming. I'm a musician, economist, amateur philosopher, and fuck it, I'm adding writer to this list. I just moved to Pusan, S. Korea, where I teach English, and try to retain what is left of my sanity. I got here in April, 2006. People have said that I have a huge, but fragile ego. I struggle with how that works.

"Behold the good and just! Whom do they hate most? Him who breaketh up their tables and values, the breaker, the law-breaker- he, however, is the creator.Behold the believers of all beliefs! Whom do they hate most? Him who breaketh up their tables of values, the breaker, the law-breaker- he, however, is the creator.Companions, the creator seeketh, not corpses- and not herds or believers either. Fellow creators the creator seeketh- those who grave new values on new tables." -Thus Spake Zarathustra

Blabber time

Dust that never settles. Time to find fertile ground for these thoughts. I've never been one to be able to keep a journal. Hopefully, the relatively noncommital nature of keeping a blog will not be...

Sink

Something I wrote during a very difficult time. Personal shit... I'm certain today I am a new man. I'm so sad to say I'm not sure I wasn't better off yesterday. I thought we'd get by.&nb...
