About Me

I'm Howard. Hello. This page is a work in progress. Yeah, still.
I'm an introverted yet easygoing guy.
I do not like excessive rainfall, cold weather, babies, Coldplay, anchovies, or Bill O'Reilly.
I enjoy reading, music, movies, concerts, clubbing, relaxing in pubs and coffeehouses, and simply wandering the streets of Boston at night.
I'm quietly planning to take over the world. All I will tell you of my diabolical plan is that it involves several tons of Marmite, huge vats of unsold Pepsi Blue, and koala bears.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Strange people, normal people, goths, punks, hippies, dorks, nerds, geeks, all the animals who come out at night, and cannabalistic humanoid underground dwellers. Or just anyone who's taking the time to read this. After all, wasn't networking supposed to be the whole idea of this place? Hi there. I can be found at AIM or Yahoo under mymtvfuneral.

You're FIRED!

To make a long story short: The department I work for processes sensitive information. Shh, for internal use only. So it's with good reason that employees and contractors are subject to background c...

And another one bites the dust.

Oh, great. I just learned that The Whirling Dervish, which stood on 1135 Decatur in the French Quarter is no more. On one hand, I'm not completely shocked...on my visits there last summer, they weren'...

Not the library!

I always find a scene in It's A Wonderful Life's climax unintentionally hilarious. It's where George grabs Clarence and demands to know what his wife's fate was in the dark alternate universe he's in....

The enormous bag of death

Hey, hipster girl. I see you out nearly every time I go clubbing in Allston. This makes me unhappy. It's not you, I'm sure you're not a bad person. You're actually rather cute. But your...

Ive got the ways and means to New Orleans

And so six years after my last visit and three years after the disaster, I'll soon be making my return to the Crescent City. I owe it all to searching vacation packages at expedia.com, more out of bor...

The Hoboes of Mercy

So I was walking down Newbury the other day, doing my best to politely ignore donation requests from street people, Greenpeace activists, LaRouche fundraisers, and one sketchy group calling themselves...

Whip it

Ahh, live music. I had the pleasure of seeing Devo on Friday, then Peter Murphy on Saturday. They were both in top form, although seeing a middle-aged Devo was a little disconcerting at first, with fr...

The Boston Chainsaw Massacre

In a sinister coincidence, it just so happens that a couple of large trees across the street needed to be cut down. Men with chainsaws have been at them for the last couple of days. They start around ...
