My Interests

Upright Basses, Maxwell, Cadillacs, BMX, Left Wing politics, sexuality, veggie food, Hillbilly music, booze, punk rock ethics, quality, beauty.
Not Interested:Idiots, rap/ gheto culture, music without passion, girls in frumpy clothing, people who "like everything except country", Dumb bitches, people who choose to know nothing (ignorance is not bliss folks), hot rod hondas (give me a fucking break), racists, Sexist....

I'd like to meet:

Some folks who just flat get it, who i don't have to explain why things are messed up, or why some things are perfect they are just smart enough to get it on their own. If you think wealth is the bench mark for success then i don't care to know you, if you think quanity beats quailty go away, So there you have it. So go sin a little bit, it will feel good.

Music:

The good shit, the real deal. Rockabilly, Hardcore, Punk, Jazz, Old School Country, you know americanh music.

when people cease to have worries and concerns, they will die of excess satisfaction..... and don't forget: "perfection" is nothing more than satisfaction
