| Introduction | I blog about everything that interests me, which is a lot of random things. I mostly write about movies, especially "low brow" fare such as monster movies, action flicks, and comedies. I'll see a respectable art film or romantic comedy when a girl is involved. What can I say; I'm honest. I'm also fascinated by religion, and so I blog about that as well, and I'll occasionally get into politics. Serious topics are best left for the serious minded, however. |
| Interests | Video, Film making, photography, Cinematography, web design, graphic design, Martial Arts, Religion, Philosophy, Science, Politics, Literature (especially gothic, science fiction, and US literature), History, and anything you'd study in the humanities department really. |
