CURRENT MISSION

The return of intrepid and unrestrained wonderment in contemporary American metaculture. Make friends, see things, tell stories, die wise and worn out.

ABOUT ME

Bad at sitting still, not great at being quiet, pretty good at maintaining eye contact, excellent at Tetris.

I'm friendly and easily amused. I'm outgoing and the constancy of my motion belies an enduring excitement.

Never burned a bridge that wasn't already wont for the fire, I understand romance as well as Romance, and I know the words to the songs on classic rock radio.

And I'm not even half the douchebag reading all this would lead you to believe I am.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything I'll ever have will be something someone has given to me. And you, as well.

I'm afraid Karma might not exist, but I'm overjoyed when it seems to manifest itself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nazca Plains, Peru.

The world from an Ultralight aircraft, aged five years.

I wish Rutger Hauer were here.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a contractor by trade. Bartending fills in the gaps. High volume and high class alike. I've worked as a credit counselor, a union apprentice machinery mover and rigger, a professional logic tutor, a substitute elementary school teacher, and a youth wrestling coach.

Studied History and Philosophy.

I'll tell you anything you'd like to know, and I'll tell you when I don't know.
