CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm told I'm easy to get along with. I'm always happy and I talk a lot. I like telling my own stories and listening to others. I'm a good houseguest and I generally come bearing gifts. I wash dishes as I use them.

PHILOSOPHY

Drive it like you stole it and carry a list of aliases.
-Chelsea

"Adding sound to movies would be like putting lipstick on the Venus de Milo."

"The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer."
-Friedrich Nietzsche

"No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."

-Friedrich Nietzsche

"We have art in order not to die of the truth."

“I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?”
-Ernest Hemingway

“Hunger is the handmaid of genius.”
-Mark Twain

“And there's always soma to calm your anger, to reconcile you to your enemies, to make you patient and long-suffering. In the past, you could only accomplish these things by making a great effort and after years of hard moral training. Now, you swallow two or three half-gramme tablets, and there you are. Anybody can be virtuous now. You can carry at least half your morality about in a bottle. Christianity without tears—that's what soma is.” -Brave New World, Aldous Huxley

“First use six or eight thickness' of Kleenex pulled on at time from the slot in the box... then fit them over the doorknob and open the bathroom door. Please leave the bathroom door open so there will be no need to touch anything when you leave.”

"It is better to travel well than to arrive."

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book is "Notes from the Underground" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. I love anything Haruki Murakami has ever written. My favorite movies are Gummo and Trainspotting. I've seen some good live bands: Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, In Flames, KMFDM, the Casualties, Dropkick Murphys, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw hammerhead sharks and eagle rays while scuba diving in the South China Sea. I spit on Marilyn Manson at a show and he appeared mildly disgusted.
