A suitable case for treatment

About Me


"I love the dead before they rise
No farewells no goodbyes
I never even knew your now rotting face
While friends and lovers mourn your silly grave.....
I have other uses for you darling'"
~ Alice Cooper ~
I'm just a Rock N' Roll boy.
I have been called the Howard Hughes of Rock N' Roll.
I am a recluse. I have no problem spending my time alone and locked away..... others seem to have a problem with it.
I amuse myself easily. There will be times you will amuse me without even knowing it.
My private life is just that... private.

My Interests

Horror films old and new. Movies in general. A Girl in structured undergarments. Retro Pin Up and Fetish girls. Getting sordid out on Saturdays, fat little pigs, saying "POW!" whenever I can, trying not to say "fuck" too much, my scanner fixation, my day of rage, Dinosaur Comics, fire escapes, keeping my sexual fantasies grounded in good science, turkey burgers, putting old 70's vinyl records on CD.
Please visit: JAY
