Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if not

About Me

A Man of Action: Born in Austin Texas in 1977 Matt Deckard began honing his mind at a young age with books of science and intrigue. Following his relocation to Los Angeles in 1980 Matt has grown to be a world traveler with an appetite for adventure."I get dirty a lot and I clean up nicely. I crawl through tunnels and I stay in hostels when on vacation (When the need arises I will pull out the cash for the grand hotel now and again). I like the outdoors and I like European cities. I have chased after women and women have chased after me and when I make an enemy it is by their choice and not mine. I admire the classic Greek feminine form and have a knack when it comes to the romantic side of life. I still must master my vituperative nature. I am addicted to 20's 30's everything, particularly hats... though my friends keep trying to drag me into the 40's -- Matt Deckard"

My Interests

Fast women, playing with money, doing the deeds of a gentleman, jet propulsion laboratories, martial arts, debating, seeing the world, swing dancing, hip-hop clubs, fencing, taking old school photos of my friends, the color green, getting paid to take photos in the field, Writing press releases, writing stories, writing, Rodie for various bands, drawing amazing images with a surreal style, collecting risque vintage photos, science fiction of all sorts and the good old U.S. of A. Malice toward none. Scatting and creating my own words and melodies that just slide together. Walking into places others will not. On Rainy days I go swimming.One anti-interest I have is when I don't know what's wrong and can't fix it...www.fedoralounge.comPaintings, sculptures, art! .... ..

I'd like to meet:

people look at eachother and they see something deep down inside. Is it biology, or something more? They know... I don't. I've looked deep into many, I look away when they try to look deep into me. I don't think I have found one who really wants to delve into me...

Music:

The Mills Brothers, Duke Ellington, The Smashing Pumpkins, Duran Duran, Peter Schilling, Rochmoninov, Emenem, Morrissey, Count Basey, Counting, Crows, Bing Crosby, Radio Head, Rob Zombie, David Bowie, Trance Music, Ian Whitcomb, Sting, Kermit the Frog, Spike Jones, Cab Calloway, Aboriginal Scat, all the greats, I love stuff to which you can Charleston, Shag, Balboa, Jitterbug, Lindy, and to which you and a girl can just have a crazy time on the dance floor... and some of the mellow sappy stuff too.

Movies:

Wings (1927),The Razor's Edge (1984),Young Sherlock Holmes (1985),Brazil:directors cut (1985),The Untouchables (1987),Gattaca (1997),Harrison Bergeron (1995),The cutting edge (1992),Strictly Ballroom (1992),Vertigo (1958),Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961),Time After Time (1979),An American Tail (1986),Lost in Translation (2005),The Impostors (1998),

Television:

Books:

Ender's Game, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, When genius Failed, The Great Gatsby, A Clockwork Orange, The Genesis Code, All those James Bond Novels nobody reads, Stacks of books on clothing and style usually dusty or moldy at that, Stacks of magazines on clothing and style usually dusty or moldy too, Period Novels from the 20's and 30's, Religion, Anything Philosophy, Earnest Hemingway, Charles Dickens, Poetry galore and much much more, I don't have time to learn it all, no one does, though I'll try to learn as much as possible.

Heroes:

Myself.What stronger breastplate than the heart untainted! Thrice is he armed that hath his quarrel just. And he but naked, though lock’d up in steel. Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted

Reflex Point

It's a hem and haw of indecision that makes or breaks a battle. The war is one by the fastest to take action.
