Walking Hyperbole

About Me

Confused when not travelling MACH 3.

My Interests

saving the world from small annoyances.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who is OK with the fact that I might not write or call even when I am thinking of you... keep your psyche open for my telepathic phone calls. You know I love you.

Music:

Yes I love it. All time fav's: Fugazi, Pixies, The Slits, Joan Jett, Fleetwood Mac, Guns N' Roses, Black Sabbath, Wire, T Rex, The Smiths, Tubeway Army/ Gary Numan, Hank Williams, Skeeter Davis, I really did spill whiskey in my crotch, Nick Drake, The Wedding Present, Cat Power, PJ Harvey, Sonic Youth, The Throwing Muses, NeKo Case, all sortsa shit... I love it.

Movies:

Wes Andersen, Werner Herzog, Jim Jarmusche, Hal Hartley... not trying to be pretentious, just condensing... The Princess and the Warrior (I for real think the scene with the tube in her throat was meant to be sexy) The Kingdom (ORIGINAL SERIES) City of Lost Children and Amelie (of course I am a sappy quirky movie lover) Chun King Express. The Rivers Edge, Ruben and Ed, Arizona Dream.

Television:

Don't have one though my favorite show was Twin Peaks. OK I am now addicted to Lost. But I still don't have tv.

Books:

Some favorite books are The Bone People and The Almanac of the Dead. Anna Karenina, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. Most recently read: Joseph Heller- Something Happened, Jeffrey Eugenides- Middlesex, Michelle Tea- Valencia, Katherine Dunn- Geek Love. I like books.

Heroes:

I am a firm believer in the idea that having heroes prevents you from performing to the extent of your abilities, though I do really admire some people like PJ Harvey and Joan of Arc. I think we all have our path and our own perfect agenda.

The oddness continues

Last night on my way home I was hung up by a fresh accident in the center of the onramp to I-5. A newer pick-up was turned on its side and placed diagonally (the wrong way) across the 2 lane onramp. ...

free ballin’: scooterstreet or nuderstreet?

Thanks to a certain someone singing his own (off-key) rendition of tom petty's "free-fallin'" as "free ballin'" I cannot get the tune out of my mind. I was further reminded of this song today. I was ...

MUNCHOS!

I, for two days now, have been trying to remember the name of my favorite childhood snack food. Bugles and Funyuns kept crowding out the real name of this fluffy potato-ish chip that would adhere to ...
