The Ombibulous Nick

I know what it's like to be dead, I know what it's like to be sad

About Me

Ostentatious yet simple. I certainly pride myself in my pretentiousness of mediocrity and aloofness. I wish to view myself as an unavailing workaholic and, surprising or not, I believe it works. While I would not consider it fair to call me a dipsomaniac, I do enjoy the drink. For one truly must if they are to interact with other people. Politicians, of all sorts, I find truly displeasing while to please me is just plain difficult. Though I am easily amused. If it wasn't so in fashion I would have liked to have been a rumrunner in the 1920s.
