CURRENT MISSION

Full-frontal life enjoyment.

ABOUT ME

I like a lot of things and dislike very few things. I think the ratio is more important than the items. But for sake of hypothetical curiosity, I dig listening to and playing music, watching and making movies and reading and writing short stories and plays. I am a full time contributor to the endless distractions of man.

PHILOSOPHY

Nobody's good, and nobody's bad. People are just decision-making machines, and circumstance is just what happens after we do what we do.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't think I have a 'spark' moment yet. Part of why I'm on this site is to find that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a possible student what a blues scale is, how to do the worm, how to fold a bunch of different things out of paper, the histories of the independent music scenes in Omaha and Chicago and how to roll a really good cigarette. I want to learn anything and everything, but especially how to tie off when knitting, how to build furniture and how to be exactly the same in every situation.
