| Introduction | I'm an illustrator, a musician, a big hair and a collector of stuff. I do things for the sake of doing them and let them be done for the sake that they are. The other day, I was riding in a car, and we were at an impossible intersection, and the happiest looking old man stopped and let us out. And I could only think, if only everyone in the world were that happy old man. No one would rush to work, because they'd know their happy old man boss wouldn't mind, and he'd be okay because his happy old man customers could wait for their service, and they'd be fine because their happy old man kids could wait a little longer, and they'd be fine because the happy old man ice cream truck driver would surely give them free ice cream while they waited, and so on. I can't tell if that would be a good thing or not. |
| Interests | Drawing (which I don't do enough of) Keyboards (tweedly twaddle doopoobop a bow) Records (right now my favourites are organized from jazz to blues, with prog in the middle hitting various rock along the way) Food (I'm pretty sure I'm addicted) Videogames (Classic, though even new Nintendo is classic, and Little Big Planet 2 looks too amazing to even play) Clothing (anything swanky) Classic cars (I like old stuff) |
| Favorite movies | Concert films of rocking bands, cannonball run, Akira Kurosawa stuff, Disney things (Lion King in perticilar) |
| Favorite music | Zappa, Jethro Tull, Yes, obscure things because it's like MY spot on the hill and the stars there are mine alone. So like, Bangor Flying Circus and Ballinjack. I guess it's more of a Pokemon thing for me. Ooh, that one's got sweet attacks! |
| Favorite books | I'm trying to live a paperless experience. Wait, there's the kindle now. I mean, I'm trying to live without the written language as a source of storytelling. Wait, that makes no sense. I have a fear of pages. |
