About Me

Enough about me already. What about you?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

The guy who invented the car that can run for a hundred miles on a gallon of water. Also, the woman who put her poodle in the microwave to dry it off, and the guy who bolted an army surplus rocket to the back of his pick-up truck. (Oh wait, I think I DO know him.)

Music:

Hi-Fi Stereophonic Records

Books:

I like reading books that I ignored, during those four years of debauchery, that I now laughingly refer to as: "my college education." Steinbeck, Hemmingway, Vonnegut, Tolstoy, Mellville, Swift, Twain, Kafka and Poe. Ayn Rand of course. Some science fiction, especially William Gibson. Right now I'm reading the Old Curiosity Shop by Charles Dickens.

On the Take

So I'm gassing up my car, last night, and the dang receipt doesn't spit out. I had to walk all the way back into the station to get the receipt. (I guess it's hard to get a minimum wage employee to al...
