MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC. There's very little I can do without music on too. Then or course there's Photography, art, design, literature, films, tattoos, cute boys with great wit, fishnets, garters and corsets, vintage clothing and furniture, traveling, cemetaries, dark rooms, classic cars, nightlife, sex, passion, aggression, sleeping, partying, learning, experiencing. Living life to the fullest.
Besides David Bowie, Christopher Walken and Gary Oldman....Outgoing, no holds barred, fun loving, fascinating, musically and literally articulate, creative, intricate people for wild adventurous nights out or quiet nights in and everything in between. I like people with a passion and lust for life. People who are aggressive enough to make a plan, go do something new, not just wait for things to happen to them. I want to meet people, guys or girls, who will turn me onto new things- some new band they think I'd dig, or a great book they just read. I have a penchant for men with deep voices and lots of style. I like friends, male and female, who are not flakes and will stand by you through thick and thin. If you have style, attitude, an abundance of knowledge in your head, are articulate and streetwise, are adventurous and fascinating then your the kind of person I want in my world.***I also want to meet hot chicks and anyone owning a baddass Pre 1966 car, truck or hot rod for a photo series I'm working on with Chicks in classic cars. Some shots will be sexually suggestive, but not in the "fake boob chick laying across a hood kinda way" More of a " cops shining a flashlight on a couple who just got all hot and heavy in the backseat" kind of way. Or a hot chick working on her car. That kinda thing. If you're interested please e-mail me. I want to make this into a gallery series and a calendar.

Dexter, Weeds, 6 feet Under, Prison Break, Law & Order SVU, The Office, Nip Tuck, Queer as Folk, Sopranos, Deadwood, Absolutely Fabulous, Sex In The City, South Park, Twilight Zone, - don't really like much network television. Reality TV is way overdone. Some old shows I do miss are Masterpiece Theatre, Hitchcock, Perry Mason and a strange little BBC show called The Black Book.
Running With Scissors-Augustin Burroughs, Me Talk Pretty One Day-David Sedaris, Invisible Monsters- Wild and crazy ride, Stiff- by Mary Roach- about what they do with your body after you die, Daddy was the Black Dalia Killer- Very sick and disturbing, No Blacks, No Dogs, No Irish by Johhny Lydon-brilliant, Please Kill Me- by legs McNeal- need I say more about this one?, Don't Sleep with your Drummer- by some chick-quite funny though, The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks- another very warped and wierd book, And the Ass Saw the Angel by Nick Cave-same as previous, A Low Life in High Heels by Holly Woodlawn-and you think you're a partier? She thought the curb was a big wall she couldn't climb over, Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde-Vanity at it's best and worst, lots by Ann Rice-very descriptive and haunting, Anais Nin-very erotic, Henry Miller-crassly erotic, Charles Bukowski-what you'd expect from a complete lush, and Biographies, Autobiographies on lots of cool people- mostly artists and musicians.Hows that for a review of my warped and wierd taste in Literature?......and that's just a small sampling.
My Mom first & foremost for everything she accomplished on her own and for passing on her strength and independence. Then of course there's Marlene Dietrich, Dianne Arbus, Che Guevarra, Oscar Wilde, Jim Jarmusch and all the writers, artists, musicians, photographers,filmmakers and free thinkers that have shaped my life.
