Life in the Really Real World

Hello people. Welcome to my version of real life. It's a helluvalot different than it used to be. Quite a bit sunnier to tell the truth. I don't smoke and I can count my drinks by the month instead of the hour now; I'm not as bitter about life as I was, but I'm still cynical and sarcastic from time to time. I'm engaged to the world's most wonderful woman and I'm step-dad to the greatest seven-year-old you can ask for. Life is a fuck of a lot better than it ever was. Not too shabby. Not too shabby at all.

My favorite music:

The Rat Pack
comments:  Frank, Sammy, and Dean. I'd list 'em all seperately, but quite frankly, there just ain't enough fuckin' room.
Otis Redding
comments:  Died just three days after recording his all-time biggest hit. Fucking shame that the rest of his music wasn't fully recognized at the time.
Sublime
comments:  I've never been able to put a finger on exactly why, but I just don't tire of listening to anything that they ever did.
Blues
comments:  Anything and everything blues. It's tough to fuck up, and I like it from it's most basic levels all the way up to the most complex shit imagined. If it's blues, I love it.
Good Ol' Fashioned Rock and Roll
comments:  I missed the fifties and sixties. Cryin' shame. 'Cause those guys knew how to get a party started.

My favorite movies:

Movies are fuckin' tough to pick.
comments:  Movies are by far and away my greatest form of entertainment To pick five out of the tens of thousands that have been made is an utterly ridiculous trial. The same could be said for music, but I was feeling more adventurous when I filled that out.
Rear Window
comments:  ...... Oh.... It's just fuckin' beautiful. Just watch it. Take my word for it.
The Whole Nine Yards
comments:  No movie is better for a hang-over. Over and over again, you just can't help but laugh each time you here "wh.. ug... DOES THIS SLIDE?!?"
Enter The Dragon
comments:  And every other movie that Bruce Lee ever made. The man was a marvel to be emulated by anyone that has ever shown a real interest in the martial arts. Bow down, kiss the box, and count yourself lucky for being given a chance to see it.
Every B-Movie ever made.
comments:  From anything by Ed Wood all the way up to "Hypercube", this entire genre has captured my attention and sarcastic sense of humor for the whole of my life. Love it, and then love it some more.

My favorite authors:

Stephen King
comments:  This man has constructed a literary universe that transcends anything heretofore attempted in the history of the written word. And right now, most people think he's a schlock horror writer....
Alexandre Dumas
comments:  A better blend of fact and fiction has yet to be accomplished. Perhaps a bit hung up on betrayal, but who the fuck can say what he ever really went through?
Edgar Allen Poe
comments:  Anyone prolific enough in the medium of horror tales to influence writers like H.P. Lovecraft is a force to reckoned with long after he's gone.
H.P. Lovecraft
comments:  Even though he's dead, this guy's probably still pissing himself from reading too much Poe. But he managed to work in quite the amazing body of work in the meantime....
William Shakespeare
comments:  Perhaps it's trite and cliche, but this guy covered a lot of different ground, and managed to win out thousands of people in a time without that glorious creature known as "Multi-Media". A little respect is still deserved.
