CURRENT MISSION

"I'm trying to fill my days with as many existential distractions as possible, while I wait for the Cosmos to grow a pair and kill me." Not really, I just love that line.

ABOUT ME

Sweet crap, umm.....I am a massive fan of movies. I watch movies like most people watch sports. I'm fantastically hilarious and tragically humble. I've been an actor. A drunk (on more than one occasion). A lover. A fighter. And a candlestick maker. I have six siblings and I love them all dearly.

PHILOSOPHY

A person can do whatever they want, as long as they accept that's what they are doing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Humbly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This has by far been the greatest thing I've done. Drinking with racists, making movies in the park in Amsterdam, being taught German by a six year old for 4hours, "We'relookingforJoeBillick!!", YouthPatrol('nuff said), losing track of whether the sun was setting or rising, palm trees and sad cocaine facts in Rome, vulgar buttons and loud dogs in Warsaw, etc. Forever and ever Amen.

Interests

I'm hopelessly addicted to movies, music, and anything that has to do with sustainable investment/infrastructure. Favorite movies of the moment: "Wristcutters" and "Squid and the Whale". Favorite music of the moment: Killers and Tomahawk. I'm hopefully addicted to books and conversation. I have a passing fancy for beer (although vodka-tonics are my Achilles heel), random ass adventure (every day is an adventure when you CONSTANTLY get lost), and world news (BREAKING NEWS! It's NOT flat!).

Music, Movies, and Books

You've seen it, I've seen it. You've heard it, I may have heard it. You've read it, I probably haven't.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Safely talked myself out of THREE non-consecutive occasions where a gun was pointed at me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Changing the brakes on most automobiles is quite simple. If you've ever taken apart a toy as a child, you could probably change the brakes on your car.
