I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I hate the Internet and Computers. I really really do. I quit. UPDATE: OK. I'm temperamental. I got all pissed off because MySpace was acting up horribly (in every way possible), my attempt at a Political Forum was down (stupid stupid awful free forum hosting) and all kinds of awful stuff. So... I deleted my nice layout, my pics and comments and stuff that I added to this page. For some reason I did not delete the account.... OKAY? 1) I'm moody and temperamental. Other stuff... later.
I'm gonna try this survey thing for awhile. Will probably take it down later.

Height: Depends on for what purpose. If you are asking if I hate/fear midgets; No I don't. I also think tall, "amazonian" women are sexy too.
Weight: I'd never want to be able to count any body's ribs. Women are supposed to be cuddly IMO. Bony is not good.
Best Clothing Style: vests. I like vests. HATE collars. I like casual, comfortable, relaxed, natural. Cotton. OR, black. Or fur-suits (at least ears and tails). But who doesn't.
Number of Drugs I have taken: I haven't counted them. I didn't do stupid things like PCP, crack, or inhalants. Except amyl nitrate. Once.

So called "Bad Art"

Inspiration
Pastels and acrylic on canvas

24" x 30"The organ master stares, transfixed by twin mysterious visions; the Neanderthal saint in the setting sun and the Gothic monk proceeding out from the cathedral's sanctum -- each framed by a halo of organ pipes, reminiscent of #2 pencils.
