About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To reach the ideal of a perfect gentleman

ABOUT ME

I know the flavour of every possible type of Marlboro. Desribing myself is so bizarre. This eternal conflict between superego, ego and id. And when writing that it comes to me that I'm not very creative.
And I don't talk about politics.

PHILOSOPHY

"World's heritage is too abundant to leave it unexplored."
"Deliver me from hate and save me from disdain."
Also some other things, conceived by minds far far greater than my poor one.

Music, Movies, and Books

Cormack McCarthy punched his way into fascinating me with postapocalyptic visions.
Charles Bukovsky convinced me that it is possible to work with an exruciating hangover for many years.
Henry Miller showed me how to wipe your ass with commonly accepted decency.
Tom Waits made me dream of having a glass of whisky with him.
Milan Kundera warned me that sometimes it's better to refrain from some jokes. Especially when you want to impress a girl.
Flannery O'Connor confused me about Jesus. Standing next to her Richard Dawkins sucks.
Nergal proved that your music may bear resemblance to the engine of a tractor and you can still get on Billboard chart.
Jim Jarmush lit my love for coffee and cigarettes.
Emir Kusturica...ohhh just life is a miracle.

The list is much longer - if we talked, I believe, we could find some common favs. Those above are the ones I'd love to eat breakfast with one day - in this life or another.

I watch cartoons...hell yeah!
