I shit perfection

About Me

Although it is pretty obvious I, DJ. Not in clubs (because modern clubs are a fashion show, and I don't know about you, but I went to clubs for the music not to see who's got the latest fashions - that's what MTV is for). I do it for the sole purpose of my own enjoyment, but I don't mind sharing what I do.
Right now I'm on an extended hiatus so I can go back to college and get my degree in Web Development / Web Design. I'll be attending the Art Institute in Pittsburgh.
As for my personal aspect, most people consider me an asshole. I'm not, I'm just brutally honest. I could play you with a plethora of niceties and pretend to be interested in many things people tell me, but I'm not. So, rather than waste your time I'm at least nice enough to nip it in the bud and simply tell you or anyone that I honestly don't care (if indeed I don't).
And now for something completely different -
I have strong opinions, but I have to - because they are the only ones that count.
I may not piss excellence, but I shit perfection.
If you have anything to say, I suggest you speak very loudly because I will have trouble hearing you over the sound of how awesome I am.

Torture abolition is so overrated.

People today consider torture as a modern day witch hunt - our private little spread out Salem. In truth I do not see torture in limited quantities and under strict guides awful at all. I see it as ex...

Remembering the fallen sons and daughters.

I live in Warner Robins, Georgia. A military town with sort of a slogan "EDIMGIAFAD". It is a mouthful for an acronym, but it stands for 'Every Day in Middle Georgia is Armed Forces Appreciation Day'...
