About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To always have a pocketful of joy handy. To own a bumbling puppy named Napoleon and a kidney-shaped pool. To write something worth reading. To speak at least three languages fluently. To find people full of magic.

ABOUT ME

My middle name is also the name of an ancient Mesopotamian god. I can dissolve at will. I piss Snapple. My backflips tear space/time. I am the only human alive who has figured out the one thing squids consider perverted, and I do it all the time. Bankers and Irishmen can't see me. My balls are solid brass. Whenever I sneeze I also inadvertently emit an EMP pulse.

I'm awesome. People praise me, and I take it as my due. Gifts of gold, myrrh, virgins are brought to me and I dismissively direct them to my warehouses of similar gifts. Biggie Smalls himself descended from the heavens on the backs of two rainicorns and I made him wait forty-five minutes in my antechamber.

My laughter scares sheep and curdles milk. I am boisterous. I am too jovial. I am the drunken philosopher king. My grin wins nations and cures all disease. Sometimes when I poop, diamonds come out. No one in the history of all that has been has ever been as happy as I usually am twice a day or so.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a strong belief in the concept of duality.

Music, Movies, and Books

many many many. I like transhumanism, robots, cyberspace, all things involving the warping, manipulation, and evolution of conciousness and society.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In rome they have SO many ancient buildings, SO much history crammed into every square foot, that they can only save and maintian and display the best of the best. Walking down the streets you can see grubby men with limp cigarettes and bottles of beer leaning against arabesques and columns and archways that are older than Jesus. It's kind of intense.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can write fiction. I was in a LARP for close to three years, so I also have knowledge of how to fight with a variety of weapons including staff, polearm, short swords (single and florentine), sword and board, and mace. I know how to cook. My public speaking teacher in college told me I was the best student he'd had in ten years. I can discern different grades of olive oil by sight alone at a distance of five paces.
