Wit before brawn, brawn before beauty

About Me

I refuse to let this be a Press Packet. I drive a Scion. I'm also passive. These things lead to frustration. I follow the same school as Jarvis Cocker. I live more in my head than in the real world. I don't know what's troubling Gus, I don't like to personify nature. I also feel that my awkwardness is caused by the fact that I can't dance the funky chicken.
I am currently working on my first album. It will be out in February, weather permitting. I'm also planning on working on a series of radio dramas influenced by the golden age of broadcasting and my love of noirish melodrama. Hopefully these will find themselves turned into plays or collected, scored, and recorded and released only on vinyl. I'm also planning a giant piece of conceptual art which will be titled "Every good memory since you've left" which will be nothing more than lining the walls of my apartment with empty cigarette packs and fast food wrappers. I still haven't had the gas turned on. Perhaps it will make excellent insulation. I learned everything I know about women from Sam Malone. I mastered delicate social situations after memorizing Three's Company. I prefer books without pictures... and if there must be pictures, I strongly prefer crude sketches done by the author himself.
I get bored a lot.
My aim is Donny Dont Die

My life as a seaman

Everything looks the same.And each night I dream.About punching Michael Bay.In his smug little face.

Pink Glove

There's more to life than sad films. Hard to believe, but it's true. And harder to believe is that I'm the one saying it. I don't see much of those brighter sides to life. Truth is I never have. ...
