Jason Adams

like The Exorcist, but with more breakdancing.

About Me

Same old song on a brand new stereo.
-I recently graduated from UVA and started working for a software company in DC.
-I like movies way too much.
-I like music way too much.
-I enjoy writing, mostly funny stuff.
-I review DVDs for JoBlo.com and thus get a lot of free movies.
-I want to get naked and start the revolution.

Pretty much all my time is now spent either at work, the gym, writing, reviewing DVDs, and of course the occasional drunken stupor. If you think you can break the monotony, be my guest.

Allow me to whore myself out:
-More pictures of me then MySpace would allow.

-My DVD reviews for JoBlo.com. Your head explodes.

-A comic strip I used to write in college. You will laugh.

-Facebook.
