I am here for Friends

About Me

Blue-eyed devil. Come on over to the Bird in Hand Tavern (the smoking lounge and wetbar in our basement). I'll make you a really stiff vodka & tonic or serve you a chilled bottle of Pabst. We'll listen to The Sweet, Sparks, and Wings on our turntable. And, then I'll tell you to get the hell out when I've had enough.

My Interests

Collar nor crown. Virtue alone enobles.

I'd like to meet:

"I'm so sick of myself. I'm not funny or clever anymore. Just a broken record. I think folks like us have read and researched the fun out of everything. Fun is a conspiracy created by the trilateral commission to distract the population from the misery they should be wallowing in... or is it [that] misery is a conspiracy to keep us from fun?" --Mrs. Buk

Music:

I've heard some.

Movies:

I've watched some.

Television:

Books:

I've read some.

Heroes:

I've destroyed some.

The silverfish and me

Yesterday, before the sun came up, I killed four silverfish. And, last night, before bed, I killed another. Do I hate silverfish? No, actually, I have a huge degree of respect for the silverfish. Ego-...

I swear! They are trying to slowly kill me!

Matt and I packed the girls into their new Radio Flyer wagon to hit the new indoor flea market in the old Hill's building. Let's start on a positive note--actually, two of them. I love flea markets. I...

My yellow dinner.

Fried Chicken, macaroni & cheese, and corn on the cob (straight from Tractor Steve's). Only a tall glass of lemonade would have made it any better.

Curses and Cusses

From this day forward, I am trying to make a valiant attempt to stop swearing so much. It might fuckin' kill me.

Love is patient.

My banjo sits in the corner... waiting for me, silently. No-no, don't you touch it just 'cos it's idle... or I'll break your fingers. My banjo sits in the corner... waiting for me, silently. (pause) S...

White gloves and party manners, you jerk!

Yes, yes! It is true. I am an official graduate of the White Gloves and Party Manners course. Never heard of it? Well, I think that's because I don't think it's existed since 1978. Every Saturday morn...
