ABOUT ME

Moved to the Catskills in the frigid hellscape that was February 2015. I work with bikes, cider, and beer. When I'm not working, you will find me on the radio at WJFF (Wednesdays at 8pm!), disc golfing, on my bike, or smoking a joint in the woods somewhere stealing apples and berries from orchards.

PHILOSOPHY

You've got two ways to look at this old world: sometimes she looks like a mean old man, sometime she's a pretty girl. -- Bad Weather California

You've got to dig it to dig it, you dig?
-advice from Thelonious Monk to Steve Lacy

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Avoided arrest in a Columbus, OH alleyway by telling a cop I was gay (I'm actually straight). Maybe you'll get to hear about it.
