About Me

Lots of people consider me to be just like a member of the family, if you have an alcoholic, abusive side of the family, that is.

My Interests

Reading, writing, arithmetic. and comix. BOSKO is my favorite knucklehead.

I'd like to meet:

Roger Kaputnik, Marvin Fonebone, and Fearless Fosdick. oh, you mean for REAL? I guess I have say Jesus H. Christ, Lincoln, Joan of Arc or some shit like that.

Music:

oh hey I am back in the DCene, so I hope to be hangin' with Ottley 7doSedan and Randy Austin. And who's this Howlin Mad? Them too.

Movies:

the best: 'Double Indemnity', 'Postman Always Rings Twice', 'Public Enemy'. I've seen 'The Bank Dick' probably easily 50 times in my life but I still like it a lot. lately I've really liked Mary Harron's 'American Psycho' and anything those crazy Coen brothers do..

Television:

all of the HBO series have been good, esp Rome, Flight of the Conchords,Sopranos and Deadwood plus my personal fave, Oz. Yum. I'll confess to watching all the VH1 celeb dating/dieting shows, I am not afraid to listen to my inner moron.

Books:

Nelson Algren, Dickens, Anthony Burgess, Hubert Selby.I'll think of some others shortly. oh, of course Lewis Carroll and Ogden Nash and Edward Lear.

Heroes:

Mitchability. John Holmstrom and.......HOGAN!!!! I know nothing.

CBGB *My humble opinion*

I have put on my cool, breathable Kevlar, and I am prepared to issue forth my thoughts on CBGB. CBGB is dead from closing because of The Man! Arg! I don't give a fuck about CBGB. The place I knew an...
